It's horrible obviously, but also yeah, what's the plan there?

[–] foodandart@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

There is no plan other than to hope they get their bonus for capturing "illegals" before it is discovered that they are in fact, Americans.

There's no surplus of smarts in evidence with these morons.

The plan is to start a war so elections can be disputed or suspended, the prison industrial complex investors get rich and people are too desperate trying to restore order, they forget about environmental, health and labor regulations.

Terrorise brown people. It doesn't matter if they end up being released, they were locked up for 3 weeks, probably beaten up a couple of times - when they're released the jobs been done. For now, until it gets worse. It can always get worse.

They've been sending people with no history in Africa to camps in fucking Djibouti, what makes you think that they won't do the same to Native Americans?

First concentration camps ("immigration detention centers"), then labor camps ("for-profit prisons") if you're lucky, death camps ("CECOT" or similar) otherwise.

First for immigrants because it's easy to justify, then any non-whites because they're easy to target, then the dissident whites because nobody else is there to speak out.

They have been testing the waters for this (including sending US citizens to foreign death camps) for a year now.
