It 100% is a concentration camp. Not even remotely our first though. And anyone who believes that psychopathic or sociopathic groups, that revel in mental and physical abuse. Will even attempt to provide psychiatric help, needs help themselves.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

“An accountability center is involuntary, OK — you’re not coming in and out,” Randy Shumway, chairman of the state Homeless Services Board, said in an interview. Utah will end a harmful “culture of permissiveness,” he said, and guide homeless people “towards human thriving.”
Surely the Orwellian naming conventions of this shit was not lost on any of them
Ask a homeless person if they'd like to stay in their own hotel room for free and see how fast their "culture" changes.
You know I've been told Utah is a lovely place but all I see is theocratic rot masquerading as a state. The failure to deal with the Mormons in a more permanent way has been disastrous for society.
In an interview at his Salt Lake City office, Mr. Shumway, 53, toggled between the language of the boardroom and the pulpit. He said a “management consulting approach” would make homeless services more efficient (“we nerd out on things like Six Sigma and lean process re-engineering”), measuring individual progress through a system of behavioral targets he calls “the pathway to human thriving.”
They’re going to murder them.
we nerd out on things like Six Sigma and lean process re-engineering
Oh, god, one of those assholes. The long-running joke about Agile, Lean, Scrum, and some of these other processes is that they are run much like a cult, but if you work somewhere that has been infected with them, you either have to find or set up another job without this poison, or you have to at least parrot the bullshit.
It's like a combo of Lysenkoism mixed with Amway...also, just like Republicanism or Communism, the process can never fail, it's only people that fail the process.... 🙄
In some cases I'm sure, but the more common result will probably be long term imprisonment and servitude. They'll set these people up to fail one way or another.

Found the Trekkie. LLAP brother.
Clearly somebody muddled in the timeline, this shit was supposed to end in 2024 not start in 2025
How is this different from being jailed and receiving treatment? It looks like they want to avoid being accused of arresting/imprisoning thousands and eventually hundreds of thousands of people by doing the same thing with a different name.
The only "crime" is not having a home. So its "treating" it by sending people to a prison without due process
What kind of "treatment" do you think will be given?
Previously? Or now? Someone that I have known for a long time got treatment and she said that it sucked. She almost died twice. Even with the best of intentions (yeah, right) I expect a poor experience especially at the scale that they are talking about. However, my question is why are they doing the equivalent of arresting someone and sending them to treatment by saying that they are sending people to treatment without the formality of arresting them.
