"Alligator Alcatraz" is a new concentration camp built in the swamps of Florida. They're selling Alligator Alcatraz merchandise to fund some cartoonishly evil dickwad's political campaign.
Who tf supports a concentration camp... And displays merch of it... And you say somebody is making a profit? Wtf
The problem is propaganda and a deliberate decision by MAGA to make their every effort to refuse to see a duck for a duck.
These people don't support "concentration camps" they support "detention centers" that "house immigrants" before deportation.
Nevermind that it's a distinction without a difference, morally it feels better to tell yourself it's not a concentration camp and that you'd never support a concentration camp. But they are, and they do. They'd just never admit it to you or themselves.
As for the profit: of fucking course. This is America, we socialize corporate expenses and privatize corporate profits for everything. The intended purpose for taxation of the working class now is to feed the ultra wealthy a competition free source of additional wealth.
