@Catawu @mcnado I don't know. Gathering up innocent people and shoving them together in tent camps with only mylar blankets, improper food, unsafe water, etc etc during a raging pandemic (and really just any diseases existing) seems pretty darned cruel and non-human to me.
At this point it's less about a level of cruelty and more about trying to terrify as much as possible for them. They aren't more cruel, just they're more open as a terrorist cel.
