Getting tired of white folks shutting down BIPOC critiques of Harris/Walz by referencing detention camps as a Trump scare tactic when we've got massive numbers of disproportionately Black folks enslaved in labor camps in every state in the nation RIGHT NOW. We don't call them that, but that's what they are.

@tillshadeisgone and ya boi Walz was perfectly willing to turn county prisons into mass detention facilities https://www.vice.com/en/article/line-3-pipeline-500-protesters-arrested-next-standing-rock/
At this point 500 protesters had been arrested (only 1k got arrested for J6)

@tillshadeisgone and frankly you don't have to be a minority to see the deep, abiding problems in American society that liberalism likes to sweep under the rug and conservatism actively seeks to make worse. You've just gotta have eyes and a memory longer than a few weeks.

@tillshadeisgone Yep. Massive for-profit private prison corporations exploiting people for less than a dollar an hour. Modern day slavery
It's incredibly depressing. -
