NO JOKE: Germany Proposes Sending COVID Dissidents to Dresden Camp
1 min readIt is not satire: German lawmakers are planning on sending Germans who don’t comply properly with their draconian coronavirus restrictions to a camp in Dresden for those who apparently “do not fit in.”

Author Robert Gellately, in his book Backing Hitler: Consent and Coercion in Nazi Germany, reminds us the prevailing notion that the German people were against concentration camps was a myth. Regular citizens were in favor of them. He writes, “the Germans generally turned out to be proud and pleased that Hitler and his henchmen were putting away certain kinds of people who did not fit in, or who were regarded as ‘outsiders’, ‘asocials’, ‘useless eaters’, or ‘criminals’.
Sound familiar?
New York lawmakers proposed similar unlawful and unconstitutional powers be given to them recently.
This kind of throw rights out the window in the name of safety soft totalitarianism leads very easily to egregious human rights crimes and evil. It has happened before and it can happen again.
