> I'm exasperated, because you felt confident "correcting" other people about US "deportations" in 2025

I still very confident about my original claim that this is not even close to people being sent to German concentration camps to be (slowly) murdered. You (or anyone else that responded to me) have provided zero proof of that happening.

I do appreciate you taking the time to provide sources for your claims, thank you for that.

I agree that better, more concrete proof is needed before deporting suspects to a prison. While a point system probably catches people that have managed to evade law enforcement and that should be in jail, there is also a bigger chance of regular people getting caught up.



If the only difference is the lack of active murdering happening at the concentration camps, then that is hardly a defence against the claim that the current situation is similar to what my family faced 80 years ago. You do not need to carry water for those who seek to emulate past atrocities.


> The group arrested and delivered to the Nazi authorities 8,000–9,000 Jews. Most of them were deported to Westerbork concentration camp and later shipped to and murdered in Sobibor and other German extermination camps.

In my opinion that is a very big difference.

Most people that are deported don't end up in a prison either, they are returned to their home countries.


I see no rational way your opinion matches the reality on the ground. Can you provide any evidence that most of the people deported against their will and without due process and put into detention centres (nee concentration camps) considered the destination their home country.
