Alligator Auschwitz. It doesn't deserve to be dignified with the name of an actual prison, no matter how notorious; it was a death camp for unpopular and undesirable people without trial, convicted of no crime, violating even the most basic rights afforded to prisoners in actual prisons. The fact that it was shut down should not distract from the fact that it is still happening, with slightly less media attention but perhaps at even greater scales, elsewhere, and will continue if it is not stopped.

I understand that the internet and the state of the world has completely exhausted most people's outrage budget, but this remains genuinely outrageous. To say it is unacceptable is such an understatement, it makes the world understatement itself look weak.

I'm on board. I will join this fight. But, please provide citation.
