Just a little bite today. Maybe even a smaller bite tomorrow.
Just one more teensy weensy little step by this administration toward unthinkable malevolence. Just enough movement to lure the talking heads to create doubt on whether they really really really are concentration camps (which they are). Because the media doesn't know what the fuck else to do. Because children dying and suffering under our name is unthinkable. Because the US doesn't do that, right? So instead of screaming about this atrocity (which some are indeed doing on cable news), let's argue instead over what to call it (which far more people seem to be doing on cable news).
Just a little more movement each day to get everyone arguing over what the camps are CALLED, rather than what they ARE. If labels are important, I guess I'd call them Child Torture Camps.
