There's essentially no comparison at all to any historical definition of a concentration camp.
The white knights in the media rushed to defend AOC anyway, because that's what they do.
Not going any deeper into Concentration Camp Twitter today, but the term originated to describe British tactics in the Boer War, and was later applied to Nazi tactics.
If you spend a few minutes learning some actual history, you will find out that concentration camps are different from death camps and have a history that both predates and extends far past the Nazis.
There is no question she was making a comparison to Nazi concentration camps, and it's ludicrously dishonest to suggest otherwise.
The history of Auschwitz is far more complicated than this as it combined two functions: a concentration camp and from March 1942 an extermination center.
The media are already running to post op-eds by "Historians" letting us know that border detention facilities are in fact just like Nazi death camps, just at an earlier stage.
