    None of these people used the “I’m just following orders” until they were in handcuffs. They didn’t give a fuck before then.

      This is ai? I can’t find any obvious tells…

      There’s some weirdness with eyes and the little boy I guess

        There’s weird details on some of the fingers that an artist probably wouldn’t put there (just extra lines, no extra fingers), the text is pretty telltale of the new GPT image generation but the most clear way to tell is the SS on the collar and the piece on the hat.

        They all look the same because it’s been trained so. Wonder how many artists have had their work stolen so some CEO’s can churn money on AI…

    You’d think that Americans being represented more than the Germans would be telling…

          My argument would be that Indian reservations were concentration camps, although they predate the use of the term.

          I’m aware the Spanish did it in Cuba in the late 1800’s, and the British did during the Boer war, but were the British doing it in advance of the relocation of Native Americans started by the US in 1830?

            Britains first colonial project was Ireland, which began around 1169 and intensified into the 1500s. They still occupy a part of the island and killings of unarmed civilians (sometimes children, sometimes shot in the back) are still being investigated and prosecuted.

              Colonizing and occupying the island, and even killing the residents wouldn’t be the same as establishing concentration camps.

              I’m not familiar with the details of the British occupation of Ireland, but the earliest I can find instances of people being put in camps is in the 1920’s

              Did Britain create some form of concentration camps before then?

              Edit: it is such a fucked up thing to be claiming “credit” for.

                The island was so small that it was a camp itself, just referred to as Ireland. I can understand how that could be missed in a relative brief search.

                It was heavily surveilled, controlled and garrisoned with similar abuse and exploitation that Native Americans faced. So the name and presentation is different maybe, but it’s essentially the same.

                Later there were further camps called internment camps and prison camps. You’ll find reference to these around the time of the 1798 rebellion.

    nobody takes responsibility, nobody’s got a conscience. and in fact as someone said here, some of these agents wanted to receive these orders anyway.

    also, f*ck a.i.

    None of them were JUST following orders. They absolutely take pride and pleasure in doing what they do.

    Also you forgot the IDF

    very upsetting to find out this comic is ai generated. i wanted to comment on how people like comparing the current us regime to Nazi Germany but never seem to realize that the us itself was founded on the genocide of the Indigenous Peoples.

    It’s the same in every sector where people are dependent on following orders to eat and house themselves. Health insurance in america isn’t any different. People are forced to be assholes to each other just to feed themselves and it’s a symptom of how business businesses.
