      Wait, “alamy” claims ownership of the picture?! As in monetizing the fucking Holocaust!?

      Unfortunately, religion is wide enough for interpretation, that one can use it to justify all kinds of horrid things in the name of it.

      Unfortunately hell is a mind construct and they are most likely to just be gine after death with no punishment whatsoever.

      That’s the one thing perhaps that’s sad about religion being made up by humans instead of being something real

      ‘Fake’ Christian just means any Christian that doesn’t believe what you do. Christianity is great at dividing people and creating prejudice, bias and fear.

    If you wanna see how “great” a society is just look at how they treat their prisoners and the animals they eat.

    God. The wet-bulb temperatures in August alone are going to murder everyone they send to that concentration camp.

      I think the alligators are just a distraction from the fact that they are setting these people up to die in a hurricane or violent storm event. If not just the heat like you said

    $45 billion more given to ICE with the bill passed in the senate today. Your taxes going towards (more) ethnic cleansing. They want to strip citizenship from anyone who doesn’t kiss their ass and throw them in these cages. Next step after that will be “lending” the imprisoned for labor.

    Any American who doesn’t have “abolish and defund ICE” at the top of their priority list is aiding and abetting fascists.

      Minor correction - the bill passed today increases it’s overall operating budget by $175B to over $200B total. ICE will become the third most funded armed forces in the world just behind China. $45B is earmarked for camps.

      200b This is insane amount of money. They’re gearing up for something huge.

      They knew the military wouldn’t fight civilians, because it has a command structure, but ice will

      I’m pretty sure it’s light-weight psyops. Gitmo got a cutesy name as well. Anyone not directly part of the silly walks ministerium doesn’t give a nickname to something so serious.

        Its a psyop to make media choose for fake ai, high click rate images Rather then real pictures:

        3 ai pictures used by “news” sites:

        Real picture below for comparison, shows the people who made the above do know what the tents look like.

        Also its “build on a runway”, makes you “think” they are using it as temporary place before being deported by plane but no the tents are build ON the runway

        You are honestly overcomplicating it. It’s not a psyop, it’s marketing and PR. Evil is terribly banal; it doesn’t take mustache-twirling villains, only average people who are willing to do whatever they need to do to avoid being in trouble themselves.

        They need “Alligator Alcatraz” because Republicans figured out 25 years ago that a catchy name goes farther than anything more serious. It is why “Obamacare” is still reviled to this day, despite near unanimous support for the ACA. Nancy Pelosi shutting down Walz for his “weird” label was perhaps the biggest unforced error in political history.

          It’s not a psyop, it’s also marketing and PR.

          Marketing and PR are psyops too. It is very important to those in power that you don’t think badly of them. Psychology is really at the root of marketing and PR.

    Without early warning systems, they’ll be hit by an ‘unexpected’ hurricane soon enough. The rising floodwaters will penetrate the cells more easily this way.
