While I hate what’s happening in the US right now as much as the next guy, let’s not over-inflate the language used. It doesn’t help anybody.
If we start calling what’s currently there “ICE death camps” because 10 old people died across the whole country, people will get jaded, will start ignoring the cries for help as alarmist. And THEN the actual death camps will show up, but by that time nobody will be paying attention.
Out of curiosity, if they weren’t mistreating people, what would the expected number of deaths be given the total number of people-days of detention since January?
I think at this point we can characterize it as killing. ICE is killing people.
Killing people in their death camps, too.
We are all being killed on this glorious day.
Reminds me of the Theresienstadt Ghetto: https://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theresienstadt_Ghetto

Exactly as it happened with Gaza.
The United States government is killing citizens and residents it deems undesirable. ICE is just the bullet.
Before that it was DHS, FBI, various police sheriff’s departments. It’s just escalating and will continue to do so.
How many do you think have died in the El Salvadorean gulag
the complete silence about everyone else who was deported there is the scariest fact.
the media just forgot about them, they latched on one person and the rest are forgotten. they will likely never see the lights of day.
Because they’re invisible now.
We sent reporters over there and now those reporters are threatened against speaking up.
I bet that count is low
It reminds me of nazi Germany.

I can only imagine that they’ll hand pick the most heartless people they can find to run the detention centers.
Have we not heard multiple stories from people detained how all they get is a space-blanket and pretty much have to sleep on concrete?
