Moderated Trump announces new concentration camps

The only reason Trump won't have genocide happen in his camps is because he knows he couldn't get away with it.

He's already separated children from parents more or less permanently for what amounts to a civil matter.

They defend this guy saying he won't/wouldn't perform genocide if he could get away with it, yet he has violated human rights in other ways because he's getting away with it....

Exactly as the law demands. Get a speeding ticket kiss your children goodbye forever. That is what the rule of law means to all right thinking conservatives.

...unless you're the president or other notable Republican, in which case the appropriate response is "I don't care".

They might be, but in this reality, they're five people who spent years in jail for a crime that they were later shown to be unrelated to by both the confession of the actual criminal, as well as DNA evidence, and your description of them actually matches Dolt 45's view of them - he has repeatedly said that they should still be in jail despite being cleared beyond any reasonable doubt.

Look it is clear, innocence is no reason to let black men convicted of raping a white woman out of prison. This is conservative jurisprudence 101.
 
If it was up to Trump, he would never give anyone Due Process if it wasn't in his personal interest to do so.

Cynically it's brilliant. The idea that the "Liberal Justice System" is more concerned with letting people off on soft-hearted technicalities plays to his base.

Once again: that isn't genocide. That doesn't even resemble genocide. Not every bad thing does.

Neither was the Holocaust until they started the actual killings.

"Round up the undesirables" is sort of a necessary first step though.

"Round up the undesirables" is quite common. That second step, "kill them all," is quite rare. Which means that taking the first step isn't really evidence that the second step will occur. And there's no other evidence that the second step would, and plenty of reason to think it wouldn't. This incipient genocide narrative all just paranoia. It's stupid and counterproductive, and makes the people pushing it look like fools.

No, it's not genocide, it was an aside to point out how ridiculous prestige looked.

My example was forcibly and systematically separating thousands of children from their parents with no possible means of reuniting them, and with no evidence that this is necessary for the well-being of the children. That is getting very close to genocide.
