MODERATORS
People aren't tortured with an iron maiden, but when you have conditions like under trump in 2020, and the suicide rate in ice detention jumped 11 times higher than the previous 10 year average, I don't think you can suggest ice detention is that far away from concentration camps.
Also, Gitmo isn't for enemy combatants - they can chuck anyone suspected of terrorism in there, even US citizens. It most definitely isn't exclusively "war crimes".
Negligence (and even cruelty) is different from literal torture and (allegedly) extermination of an ethnic/religious group.
Also, gitmo holds hundreds of people, not hundreds of thousands.
