    I was imagining concentration camps

    We have concentration camps for migrant workers and refugees crossing the border, and the US Prison System is basically an internal camp system. The Nazis didn't start out with extermination camps. They worked towards it incrementally for years.

      For sure. I was just having trouble seeing how the immediate future tied into that build up on an intuitive level. It seemed like an awful present disjoint from an awful future. Seeing the continuity is making me feel like I’m finally feeling a proportionate amount of urgency.
