quote:

Australians have hit back at Americans who compared the Howard Springs quarantine facility to a 'concentration camp' by posting photos of people in bikinis and activewear who appear to be on a holiday.

US-based conspiracy theorists reacted to news that three people had escaped the centre in the early hours of Wednesday morning by likening the facility 30km south-east of Darwin to 'Auschwitz', the infamous Nazi death camp for Jews.

One such theorist on Twitter ran a pic of Howard Spring alongside a picture of Auschwitz with the text: 'Remember the good old days, when traveling to Australia sounded exciting?

'Observe Howard Springs Quarantine Camp vs. Auschwitz.'


quote:

Another American on Twitter posted: 'I Twitter searched 'Howard Springs'.

'The comparisons to Auschwitz are not an exaggeration.

'My first thought, 'all those tweets from the sophisticated Aussies about how smart they were to give up their guns are not gonna well'. Pray for the Australians.'

One American TikTok user said Australia was 'rounding up all the Aborigines and putting them in concentration camps'.

But Australian publisher and political commentator Claire Lehmann was one who quickly rubbished the conspiracy theorists claims.

'Lol. Just discovered that there's a Howard Springs hashtag on Instagram, and it's full of hot babes posing at what [conspiracy theorists] call a 'concentration camp,' Tweeted Lehmann.

Forcing people into a camp isn't bad, just look at these hot chicks having a good time!

Not a single one of those chicks is living in those camps. Not one.

People now value leisure more than personal freedom. Not surprised.

You have to realize very few countries actually fought for and won independence. Most were given independence.

Just because people aren't being gassed and starved to death doesn't mean it isn't a concentration camp.

The Nazis used to create videos from the concentration camps, too. They loved to make them look like summer camps with kids playing and adults doing gardening. Australia has truly become a disgrace and the media are their hired propagandists...

By this logic, the internment of Japanese Americans during WWII was okey doke because conditions were better than German camps? I am far from anti-vax, and I'm still not buying that.

That’s just stunning to me. You’ve been taken against your will to a place you’d never ever voluntarily go to. You cannot leave said place or you’ll be arrested.

And they’re perfectly fine with this because they have good food, internet and air conditioning!?!?



I know each generation looks at subsequent ones and thinks negatively about them. But this younger generation has to be the biggest collection of freaking idiots ever.

MSM still uses the term "conspiracy theory" like it means anything. That ammo has been depleted.

Call it Sandals resort if you want, it’s still involuntary.

Thus, a concentration camp.
