Even a holocaust Survivor couldn't educate AOCs sheer stupidity and ineptitude.

Yea, it is written in the Book of Cyril...
Maybe the dolt should learned by now his people have not cornered the markets on suffering and being victims of genocide. Some people in this world have suffered worse.
And other people, while not suffering as badly, are still suffering. Getting your hand cut off isn't "as bad" as having your arm cut off. People who lose an arm can still be empathetic to those who lose a hand. Suffering isn't a zero sum game. Recognising someone else's doesn't diminish yours.

Yeah I guess so. Definitely George Taki suffered worse.

I'm glad you've educated any and all Holocaust Survivors on what is and what is not a concentration camp.

Competitive suffering is just stupid. All people suffer. And some suffer in concentration camps to this day and that is a problem

Holocaust Survivors aren't a group for you to cherry-pick and use opportunistically.
Why don't you just admit that you don't care at all about the living conditions in US camps?
I didn't make the article.

When the Europeans invaded the Americas there were at the low estimate more than 47 million natives living in the Americas, 90% of them were to die because of what Europeans did. That is 90% of 47 million of people I am related to by some extent by blood. So, yeah I can educate people on genocide.

So by your comparism, we grabbed all those people down there , brought them up here, and forcefully put them in camps.

They were arrested when they shouldn't have been
Well maybe they should take advantage of the art of the deal. Trump did if I recall, offer all those so-called immigrants to be released and sent to all those sanctuary cities. I'm sure conditions will be much better there given the Democrats socialists know how to handle it.

Trump ought to still send every single one of them into the 'capable' hands of the Socialists and have them put their money where their mouth is.

I'd like to see them do better if the roles were reversed. Oh wait , they'll just let them all go unabated into the American populace.

Anyways I would think the offer still stands......

Trump: We Can Give Sanctuary Cities An "Unlimited Supply" Of Illegals

Now there is a nice bipartisan solution to all this.

You posted the article here. Given your commentary and your tone it seems clear that you support the articles opinion that it is politically incorrect to use the words "concentration camp" to refer to something short of Nazi death camps or at least nazi labor camps.

There is nothing wrong with such critical thinking, but you should be aware that this is akin to the very same postmodernist pc thought that people rally against.
 
She even turned down a once in a lifetime invitation to tour a real concentration camp with holocaust Survivor Ed Mosberg who's in his 90s and actually learn something from the experience.

‘Nobel Prize in stupidity’: Holocaust survivor wants AOC out of Congress ⋆ The Savage Nation

I think it's time she left Congress too.

Has AOC actually compared them to Nazi concentration camps, or are people just unaware that concentration camp means internment camp just as much as it means death camp? Or are people aware it means that yet still prefer to pretend that it means Nazi death camp because they find using the holocaust as a prop to beat the other side cathartic?

Unfortunately, our stupid monkey brains are wired to think in zero sum ways. Evolutionarily it makes sense, "if they get MORE fruit, I get LESS fruit, therefore I must keep ALL the fruit for myself!", but unfortunately we still instinctively follow the same thought pattern "if they get MORE recognition of their suffering, I get LESS recognition of my suffering, therefore I must keep ALL the recognition of my suffering for myself!"

It doesn't make sense when you examine your thoughts critically, but of course, not many people do that.

People don't realize that "concentration camp" was a euphemism that the Nazis started using when the Allies accused them of running Death Camps. It is more of a disservice to call the Nazi death camps, concentration camps because that is exactly what the Nazis wanted.
I remember when Sean Spicer Called them “Holocaust Centers”.

This is the problem. You can’t justify anything simply by saying it is not as bad as the Holocaust. That is not what is happening in the U.S. today. But shouldn’t you aspire to more than just being a little bit better than Hitler?

What is happening is horrific. And history will remember these years in U.S. history as a low point.

I would actually like him to visit the internment camps on the border and then give his opinion again. I would value the opinion of a Holocaust survivor.

Yeah she could really learn something from it. Hell , I'd even go if invited. The guy is like 93 so it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience that comes from somebody who actually was there and knows the difference between concentration and detention/holding camps.

Did you see AOCs pictures by an empty gate pretending there's children on the other side? Then she puts her hand on her forehead like she's witnessing shocking scene. One photo had an empty lot with a few border patrol vehicles in it.

Here's the photos and the explanation from a bias 'fact'-check..

Does an Image Show Ocasio-Cortez Fake-Crying at a Migrant Camp?

Yeah right, anybody would break down by an empty parking lot.

It's completely ridiculous. How this woman ever got elected is mystifying, but then again the Democrat socialists who do that don't usually have very much common sense as they automatically flick every Democrat switch anyways regardless.

People should be more concerned about the fact that you have concentration camps and about the horrible living conditions of those incarcerated in then than the fact that AOC correctly called them concentration camps.
They're not concentration camps if detainees are guaranteed to be let out after three weeks and if they haven't been sent there as part of a criminal sentence. The conditions in the detainment camps are awful, sure, but that's because they're far over capacity and haven't been receiving funding. AOC cheered when the Wayfair workers announced a strike. Because apparently she thinks that the people in these camps shouldn't be receiving beds to sleep on.

Have you ever actually been to a concentration camp? Because I have. I've been to Dachau and seen the pictures and testimonies of how people there were treated. And it's not even close to how we're dealing with the detainees. We're trying our best with far too limited resources.
