why, if these people are there doing nothing, shouldn't they be working?

And then the work sites come in, organized by Palantir and prison industries.

Along with every other argument against it, this will probably enable the spreading of disease as well.

12. Alligator Alcatraz
Mon Jun 30, 2025, 02:11 PM

In the swamps where the wild gators laze,
They’re building “Alcatraz” for new days.
With pythons in tow,
No place safe to go—
Escapees will rethink their ways!

Deep in Florida's swampy morass,
They're building a jail with some sass.
"Alcatraz" with a twist—
Gators snap through the mist—
A deportee's hell, not a class.

In the Everglades' muggy green maze,
They’re building a jail that just slays.
With gators on guard,
And escape paths barred,
It’s “Alcatraz South” — with more flambé!

on Alcatraz had been legally tried, convicted, and sentenced in recognized courts of law. The people in Auschwitz had not. They were rounded up without any kind of judicial proceeding, and sent to the death camps.


Alligator Auschwitz. Brought to you by the new nazis.

On top of the inhumanity, this sounds like an environmental disaster in the making!

It just figures that Schlump and DeSatan would be in cahoots on something like this!
