"...But stewards of Japanese American history, including the children and grandchildren of those who were held in detention, are criticizing the use of Fort Bliss and the plans to expand immigrant detention on American military bases...."

@AccordionBruce @ai6yr while also removing any mention of the previous mistakes. This has to be getting close enough to the point where people get more angry than just online snark, or admit that the country is shitty

When they reopen memorials to concentration camps as new concentration camps, you have stepped well past a line

@AccordionBruce @adamvs1 @ai6yr whoops. I didnt mean there is no resistance. I meant the suburban people that are defensive of their own comfort, that see this and make up excuses to pretend to have supported it on accident

I’d say people have been resisting all along
“Where is the resistance?” Is a self defeating cop out, unless it’s an honest request for opportunities
Ideally this would have soldiers refusing to serve. The Vietnam Vets Against the War scared the shit out of the powers
But every person has a role:
We cannot live this short life in chains though they be golden

@ai6yr @ATLeagle @AccordionBruce Let’s hope that this is a spur to USian’s actively resisting this abomination.
