100% and it will be worse.
Covid was a glimpse.
I had coworkers who left small towns because they were Asian. Imagine being Filipino and having racists shout Chinaflu at you. Every single Asian person I met has a story.
I also had a friend disown their parents because they harassed a Thai family all during covid, calling them child smugglers. I’ve met these people, and they were perfectly wonderful 15 years ago. Just oblivious racists.
They already have internment camps. They’ll just build more.
Under the current regime, very likely
Probably high.
Of course most people would be shocked at even the idea. But given time, paranoia, stress,… they would end up finding it necessary
War cause extreme polarization. Extreme polarization turn the nicest purest man into a sociopathic monster.
There’s no “people” involved in that decision. There’s Trump. If he cared about public opinion he wouldn’t be half as destructive as he is.
You want to talk about concentration camps? We’re already expanding our own Black Site.
America has the highest incarceration rate in the world. The average maximum security prison holds 800-1200 prisoners. The largest, Angola, LA, holds over 8000.
Our most famous black site, Guantanamo Bay, located in CUBA (WTF?), currently holds about 120. They are now building a facility there, that will hold 30,000 prisoners. That’s nearly 4 times our largest prison, which is already about 8 times larger than average.
The question is: Who do they intend to put in that new facility, which is far from any oversight by the media or the courts. It’s in fucking Cuba, which is controlled by…well, you get it.
I was a victim of the recent Reddit bloodbath, with a 12 year/ 900K+ karma account. Clearly, they reviewed my high-volume posting account, and they know how I feel about them, and the punishments they have earned. I expect that at some point, there is a pretty good chance I’ll be getting a free vacation to Cuba.
They’ll be looking for any excuse to throw people in there. In a war with China, theyll go right to the top.
Right there with you bud. Constantly on edge about when they will decide to abduct my wife at work or while shopping. It’s a good thing I made peace with my near term death a long time ago, or this might be stressful.

Ive been warning my family and friends that at my age, I’ve got nothing to lose, and if the government were to do something to my son (who fits a few vulnerable groups), i would become a very dangerous man. And my danger wouldn’t be random, or aimed at innocent civilians, it would be tightly targeted.
Bless up. I hope it never comes to that, but you have my full support if it does
100%
I have a feeling that no matter who is in charge, we’ll either see that or a large emphasis put on keeping tabs on them. Either way, it would be a nasty situation for everyone involved.
Less likely than EVERYONE who looks Asian ending up in camps.
Japanese people aren’t Asian, but Indian (from India) people are. There’s no underlying logic, it’s just hate.
You’re British, yes? Ignore the US centric douche canoes.
Were you homeschooled by a pigeon?
In Britain “Asian” means you’re from India, Bangladesh or Pakistan. Not from Japan etc. Then you’re from the Far East.
Okay, but what if you, you know, like, ask people from Asia what “Asian” means?
If Japan isn’t part of the Asian continent what continent is it part of? 🤨
India is also in Asia
Maybe they’re counting Japanese people as Pacific Islanders? Which imo seems more racist somehow.
Well I guess you could argue that it is a bunch of islands in the pacific

The continent of Japania?
/jk
North America, of course! /j
Under the current administration? 100%.
Theres a 50-50 chance they end up in internment camps without any war breaking out…
We’re already well-started down this path with brown people that we aren’t at war with. The group of undesirables must constantly expand under fascist rule. To answer you succinctly: incredibly likely, perhaps even a near certainty
All Americans & all people in or attempting to enter America are in danger of being disappeared now.
Buy guns and form support networks with neighbors
Form a well-regulated militia. It’s what they’ve been telling us to do.
The Founding generation understood that large standing armies were dangerous threats to liberty, especially when controlled by authoritarian governments who sought to disarm the general population.

Hell, trans people staying in the US are in danger of being disappeared now.

Guaranteed, and that’s without your hypothetical war. Currently it’s just a matter of time.
100%
Depends on how hard it is to set the camps on fire and how much they’re hidden from the local population. In a better timeliness.
In this timeline, it would probably occur in a number of the states but I do like to hope some would resist.
I mean Louisiana has received several people in their prisons. Seems like effective infrastructure.
Nobody else is commenting on it but we know for a fact that China’s government is operating illegal “police stations” inside the United States and Canada, to regulate the behavior of Chinese people inside our countries. Yes, there will be Chinese internment camps and these Chinese agents operating inside out countries will be the start of those camps. They will be real enemies among us. The question is just if our governments will stop at those real enemies or if it’ll expand beyond what’s just.
Yup, they’re running those everywhere. Exhibit A.
It’s not even a question when we’re literally fighting for due process.
China’s government is operating illegal “police stations” inside the United States and Canada
That’d be pretty big if it’s true, how come nobody seems to know about this?
Do you have any good sources on this?
They’re running them in Scotland.
Are you a Chinese troll?
I thought this was common knowledge. Here’s one about the US. If you look, you can easily find one about Canada or other countries.

During COVID China let people do government paperwork in an app instead of the embassy, and let local businesses sign up to help old or poor people with the app. The FBI decided to call that “police stations” and went after guys who owned a restaurant and set up an iPad for people to use and scared the shit out of them. They hadn’t done anything yet, but if the FBI scared them enough to lie or delete the app, now there’s a process crime and they’re fucked. There was nothing actually happening, like all the teenage autistic terrorists the FBI makes up and pretends to catch. Same with the other countries the panic spread to:
