Yes, It Is Just Like The Nazis
Hey so remember Anne Frank? The Jewish young girl who hid in an attic and was killed by the Nazis? The emblematic person we think of when we think of victims of the Holocaust?

She did not die in a gas chamber or in a death camp. She died in a temporary' detention center for the mass deportations which preceded the death camps.
She was in that camp because a patriotic neighbor ratted her out to the German deportation force. She died, not of a bullet to the back of the head or choking on gas, but of typhus. She contracted typhus because the Nazis couldn't realistically deport people at the rate they wanted to, because before the death camps their infrastructure couldn't handle the sudden influx of ethnic minorities they had decided to imprison, and because they didn't care about the consequences of that so their deportation detention centers were unhygienic and prisoners were underfed and overcrowded.

And she was picked up by the deportation force not because she was an illegal citizen but because, just like the US is doing with asylum seekers, she was part of a formerly recognized class of citizens who were legally redefined to lack citizenship by a new administration.

Anne Frank is exactly like the children who have already died in the United State's detention camps. Exactly. Down to the very last detail. There. Is. Not. A.
Single. Difference.

So unless you want to fucking tell me that Anne goddamn Frank was not a victim of the Holocaust, y'all can shut the fuck up with that "stop making concentration camp comparisons, you're diminishing the suffering of the Holocaust" bullshit.

Its also worth noting that her family TRIED to flee to the US and was denied. She was in that camp partly because the US refused to let her refugee family immigrate.

@karaswisher it’s always been fascism vs Apartheid with the two.
@servelan basically zero change for those not responsible enough to not leave their drink to be tampered with by whatever evil creeps are doing the drink spiking.
@DemocracyMattersALot they get to learn the hard lessons rational people knew all along.

#House Minority Leader #HakeemJeffries spoke for over 8 hours & 44 minutes.

Then-Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy was the previous record holder. His speech in 2021 lasted 8 hours & 32 minutes.

#Democrats chant “Hakeem! Hakeem!” as he finishes his record-breaking speech with the words: “I yield back.” They are surrounding him on the House floor, cheering & lining up for embraces.

‘They are a species on the brink’: can trees save the salmon in Scotland’s River Dee?

Last year, a single female was recorded returning to one tributary of a river usually celebrated for its fish. Now a plan is in place to change things – but it’s proving controversial

@europe it’s overwhelmingly a con.
It would be a shame if a flood of people went to Google Maps and added the label "Alligator Auschwitz" to the coordinates 25.866293061452332, -80.8979209401338
