CMV: People throw the words "Concentration camp" around way too lightly.

When I was a kid, I watched a LOT of Walter Cronkite an WW2 documentaries. Seeing images of destroyed buildings an dead soldiers in the hundreds maybe wasn't the best thing to be doing, but I learned a lot. 

Years later, I saw a CNN talk where the host described the camps that the Japanese men an women an children were put in during WW2 as Concentration Camps. I though that was stupid, but ok. Then I hear about how the illegal immigrants who were caught at the border were put in concentration camps. Then how the Chinese had concentration camps. An it just went on an on.

I saw images of those camps. Heaps an stacks of emaciated corpses. Rooms filled with clothes an shoes of the dead whom the Nazi hated. Survivors who collapsed dead right when they were rescued. Bodies of people who you could honestly describe as more skeleton than human. 

Those images should not be taken lightly. That is the truth.

Sure, we have problems. But don't you compare people being locked up inhuman conditions, or those imprisoned in reeducation camps, to those which are well oiled machines for killing millions of people in cold blood. 

They are nowhere near the same.

Here is the definition of a consecration camp.


> a place where large numbers of people, especially political prisoners or members of persecuted minorities, are deliberately imprisoned in a relatively small area with inadequate facilities, sometimes to provide forced labor or to await mass execution. 

So, if we make it a checklist. 

Large number of people: check.

Political prisoners: check depending on who you ask

Imprisoned in a small area: check

Inadequate facilities: check

The only thing not checked are the "sometimes" checks.
