Me: ... None of this matters because as more and more people are stuffed into the internment camps, conditions are going to deteriorate, other diseases are going to spread, and violence in the camps is going to increase because of the maltreatment. This will be used as justification for more authoritarian policies, and an even more severe crackdown. That's when a lot more bodies are going to start really piling up. The mass media is already prepared to excuse mass deaths in these camps as dirty anti-vaxxers getting what they deserve for putting the health of the state at risk.
Redditor: I forget sometimes that my hatred of progressivism, and my desire for journalist accountability and free speech lumps me in with some crazy conspiracy theorists but it's always amusing to be reminded of it.
Me: The mass media has been excusing leftist massacres for over 100 years. The rhetoric of the unvaccinated as plague-barers that need to be ostracized from society is already present. Your government is already forcing people into camps. You have no idea how little it will take for them to commit mass murder. You're well past the point of extraordinary danger. Even at the height of the American internment program, no one was crying for the Japanese American citizens to be purged from society. ... There is no conspiracy here, just the ghosts of history screaming out to you while you strut across a graveyard.
Parts of a real argument from Reddit KIA2 with a regular.
I mean, jesus, if you can't see the problem coming now.
Fucking anti-Leftists walking right into the fucking camps. I don't know how close to bring the dots together to some of these Australians, man.
They [MAGAs] could have managed the shock if it only involved the government. But the behavior of the corporate press is really what radicalized them. They hate journalists more than they hate any politician or gov't official, because they feel most betrayed by them. 14/x
