1. I think

I have the perfect ones who should accommodated those cages, Miller, Bannon, tRump, Caroline Leavitt, Patel, the Insurrectionists and the Project 2025 crew. Feel free to name more.

[ShazzieB]

12. To that list, I will add...

Every one of the masked ICE thugs who have been arresting anyone who looks vaguely Latino, in spite of being shown green cards or proof of citizenship!

[Blues Heron]

2. Imagine being locked in that cage when a surprise cat 4 roars through, shredding that tent cloth as the water rises

[Intractable]

3. Nice floor!

[Wounded Bear]

4. It's not mistreatment if they gave them pillows...

[Baitball Blogger]

5. No ventilation? No shade outside that tent?

You are looking at death camps.

[highplainsdem]

6. It's meant to be. It's also meant to terrify people into self-deporting. And maybe into shutting up,

if they start sending the Trump regime's critics to these concentration camps.

10. It's air conditioned.

I saw a picture and thought I saw “hot boxes.” Turns out they were large ac units. Of course there wasn’t any indication of what they were cooling. 🤷

[Baitball Blogger]

15. For all we know that's aircondition for the worker's facilities. Not the prisoners.

[Littlered]

18. It wouldn't be the first time they

Used deception would it? It’s almost a given these days.

[et tu]

11. definitely looks like no ac-

summers in fla are killer and i bet it won't withstand
a hurricane. so sad for the usa

[newdeal2]

7. The cruelty is the point

Hate to say it, but Trump will say this camp is for “bad dudes” and the general public will agree that these conditions are okay.

[Ping Tung]

8. The cages are theee to protect the alligators from terrorists, drug dealers, an non-Aryans.

[Kid Berwyn]

9. MAGANAZIs want to make that our future home.

“Our” as in anyone who supports the Constitution.

To such traitors we say: “No Kings, asshole.”

[In It to Win It]

13. It looks like it would easily break if a bunch of people wanted to riot.

[Hekate]

21. Looks like people could be easily mowed down by AK47s or whatever the hell Gestapo's using now

[ChazII]

14. Reminds me of Sheriff Joe's tent

but these are not in the desert.

[Hekate]

22. Florida heat + humidity can kill you just as dead. Concentration Camps: no more euphemisms.

[ChazII]

25. You are right and in

my opinion the Florida heat and humidity are worse than the dry heat of Maricopa County. Both are deadly.

[markodochartaigh]

26. Yes,

it's called lethal wet bulb temperature.

16. If I thought I was going to being put somewhere like that

I would fight to the death to avoid it or be killed making a break for it. I hate heat and humidity and being close to other people so that is pretty much my literal definition of hell.

I'm pretty sure those flaps with holes in the hanging from the ceiling are for ventilation but I seriously doubt they would install a system large enough to keep with south Florida heat and humidity. I worked in a factory in Ohio that had that type of setup except it was an insulated steel building. It still got brutally hot in there in the summer.

[Vinca]

17. Wonder what's going to happen when the place is full, a hurricane rips the place to shreds and everyone flees.

What a stupid fucking idea this is.

[electric_blue68]

19. Cruel craziness!

[Hugin]

20. They're trying to get us to be good Germans.

All concentration camps and gulags look good from the outside.

[OldBaldy1701E]

23. Yeah, but no one is doing anything about it, so... (n/t)

[RedWhiteBlueIsRacist]

24. Thou GOP doth Protestant too much, methinks.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

27. The new facility is not an extermination camp but this facility clearly meets the definition of a concentration camp

trump and DeathSantis have built a true concentration camp and trump is "joking" about feeding detainees to alligators. This new concentration camp scares me. There are several good comparisons of the Auschwitz camp and living facilities compared to this facility

I am former member of the board of my 2400 family temple and have got to listen a good number of holocaust survivors over the years. trump/DeathSantis' new facility is a concentration camp where it is likely that normal law abiding detainees may end up (over 60% of the ICE detainees have no criminal record).
This facility is not Auschwitz but could be just the beginning

28. The Trump Regime is following the Nazi Playbook to a tee.

The Trump Regime is following the Nazi Playbook to a tee.

They have their own private Gestapo of unidentified masked marauders and are building Concentration/Death Camps nationwide to imprison the ICE Gestapo’s human bounty.

Do not be deceived. These camps are not only for black and brown immigrants. They will soon house the Trump Regimes domestic enemies.

This is only the beginning. Want to know their next move? Study the history of the Third Reich.
