    Close to? When are we going to stop diluting and sane washing what’s happening BEFORE OUR VERY EYES?? If this exact same thing happened in one of them colored people countries everyone would be calling this a military dictatorship.

      “We” the collective population will never admit that. We were raised to believe that we are the good guys and the benchmark of freedom. Tyranny is something done by other people, different people, who aren’t good like us.

      So when 1,200 detainees disappear from one of our concentration camps, “we” can just tell ourselves they were probably JUST deported without due process. Or maybe it’s just burocratic handoffs without a transparent paper trail. Surely none of them died in custody… We’re all sure of that… Right?
