Cameron's work, both on the Epstein files and on the ICE warehouse detention camps, is invaluable

Trump & his backers are planning to hold more than illegal immigrants, no doubt about it in my mind. Definitely will become concentration camps, this regime is so cruel what else could you expect?

Deep Dive Into Evils Of Christian Nationalism

True Detective is a 4 season HBO series starring Matt McConaughey and Woody Harrelson brilliantly portraying 2 cops who become a crime solving pair exposing the dark side of Louisiana culture Written by Vic Pizzolatto the series becomes an exploration of the Southern Gothic(https://bit.ly/4aNjMIC) which was evolved as a literary genre beginning in the 1850’s and deals with the dark side of Christianity as practiced in the South It sheds light on the toxicity of a cult that spans environmental, physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of life

What makes this series so relevant to the current state of American politics is the correlation with the Republican push for Christian Nationalism as the reigning dogma and its parallels to the Southern Gothic As most know Christian Nationalism has nothing to do with governing and all to do with political populism and authoritarianism and comes from the dark or the toxic side of Christianity complete with the Satanic and Nazi symbology

As Hitler wrote in 1928, “We tolerate no one in our ranks who attacks the ideas of Christianity. Our movement is Christian.” The Southern Gothic(https://bit.ly/4ayIldj) has clear parallels with Nazism with themes of inequality, racial purity, and fear with scapegoating minorities The present day Christian Nationalist movement supported by the current Republican party depicts the diabolical evil of the Southern Gothic and fascism

There is also on the YouTube channel(you can sign in as a guest) a documentary that is 4h+ long that goes through the history of the Southern Gothic that is excellent called The Mythos of True Detective labeled True Detective S1 - Mythology, Folklore,& The Occult by Novum Can also access with computer https://bit.ly/3Oz6VSN

Although long it describes all the details of how Pizzolato puts together the series including the symbology explanations of the Southern Gothic

Please take a look at who is selling these warehouses to Homeland Security. Both the companies and the individuals associated with those companies are profiting from this. They should be investigated and exposed.

I agree Angie, these are concentration camps. where inevitably, people will die. One measles case will wipe "prisoners" out.

They are concentration camps. Please try to use that language. Nazi Germany's concentration camps weren't blatant death camps initially, either. They're driving this "detention center" phrasing and we mustn't fall for that framing.
