Deep in the hazardous and ecologically fragile Everglades, hundreds of migrants are confined in cages in a makeshift tent detention facility Florida’s Republican governor calls “safe and secure” and Democratic lawmakers call “inhumane.”
Two days after filing a lawsuit against Florida Gov.

They said they heard detainees shouting for help and crying out “libertad”— Spanish for “freedom” — amid sweltering heat, bug infestations and meager meals.

this particular iteration of fascism is already to death camps. stop measuring 47's regime from when 47 became 47, and instead on when he became 45. we are 8 years into the nazi administrative coup, 1937. stop convincing yourself this is the start and we have to build up our strength to resist what's to come. we must use our strength to resist what is here now.
if you're wondering where the non-death camp concentration camps were, they're state and federal prisons like Red Onion in VA. just not enough people listened to black people to realize republican's "tough on crime" has for decades been "we need a final solution to the latin and black question"
here are the things to know.
Yes, that's what I said except I said it with three words.
