The thing is education and the horror caused by the German Final Solution changed the perception of concentration camps to be death and genocide camps. So while they were are still an important tool for warfare and logistics. The common use of the term is going back to the European Undesirables experience at German (and French) hands. So you can be a dick about it or realize that while we sold out the Japanese Americans literally. We also didn't have a plan other than keeping agents from sabotaging, directing raid targets like in the blitz. And not the extermination of every slant eye on the western seaboard. Which is the fricking point.
Good post. Let's all agree.

OP beat you to this post several pages ago.

Your post implied that you were not shitposting, which to me, means you were not just arguing for your own entertainment, but that you take this seriously

Democrats will one day endorse that we do this again: for Trump supporters.

No, because you like to argue so much you just make up positions out of thin air and try to play the radical moderate angle on everything. Take a break every now and then.

I've always enjoyed lnch's lectures on arguing too much in the middle of a 10 page argument over the most minor stuff

You ignoramus.
FDR, a Democrat, put US citizens and legal residents into concentration camps, without recourse to ANY legal due process.
Trump and Obama put illegal alien invaders into detention quarters pending legal review.
See the difference?

The British actually started the concept of concentration camps in the Boer War.

While still wrong, there’s a stark difference between what happened to the Boers and concentration camps.

There were Japanese-Americans betraying the US and pledging allegiance to Japan.
Today there are Muslims pledging allegiance to Isis. Are you really trying to say that we should round up all the innocent Muslims and put them in camps cuz a VERY small percentage MIGHT join the enemy?
This is honestly one of the worst things the US government has ever done and it is usually white washed in history classes as “a necessary evil”.
It wasn’t necessary. Just evil.

A lot of PoliBoard posters would support this.

No US President has come closer to "fascism" than FDR.
