I live in the city that had the most draconian lockdown measures of anywhere on the planet. Moreover, I was intimately involved in local activism during the years 2020 - 2022.
So yeah, I deny the characterization of "concentration camps", firstly, because I know the reality about actual concentration camps, whether you are talking Soviet Union, Nazi Germany or North Korea, etc., and secondly, I know a fair amount about the places that spawned the 'concentration camp' narratives.
These quarantine 'camps" existed, I think about 3, and this was for people who arrived in the country during a specific period of time, to put them into quarantine for a specific period of time (3-4 weeks, I think). Where they wrong. Sure. Stupid? Yes. Were the rights of the few hundred people restricted to them trampled (edit: a few thousand). Yes. And so were the rights of millions and millions of Australians.
But I'm seriously curious what your concept of these is, and what picture you have in your head. Because being in actual ground zero, I know a LOT about the reality of our lockdowns, and this also made it pretty obvious when sensationalized narratives took flight and got spread around clickbait-style in overseas reports with all sorts of non-Australians just believing any old hype they heard.
I know the details of the lockdown measures exactly, because I lived through them. And this makes it easy to spot the fake narratives that get spread because of sensationalism.
The lockdowns here were the worst in the world, but overblown fake narratives don't expose the truth. They dilute it.
If you are interested in knowing some of the details of how the lockdowns screwed us over, I'd be happy to describe them. But 'concentration camps' were not part of the mix, thankfully.
Full disclosure: I guess I'm a bit prickly about this because a) it's directly personal and b) I have a solid peeve about fake news narratives that tend to afflict anons and those of us who have started to exit the matrix.
Yeah, maybe. But my dad lived under Nazi occupation for 5 years, when he was a kid/youth, so what's your point?
Also, having met survivors and seeing the results of the devastation on their family, it's not something I can so easily dismiss.
Moreover, regardless of the figures or the holocaust narrative, only a fool would move to deny the utter brutality and savagery of the Nazi regime.
A lot of the 'historical facts' we have have been distorted, but the reality of the concentration camps, death and murder under communist regimes around the world strips away pretense that we've been hoaxed.
Honesty, no offense, but I wonder how many Americans sit in their cocoons of blessing and theorize about stuff that has happened, from a place of being disconnected. A lot of anons are bewailing and bemoaning all the pain and difficulty that America is experiencing at the moment, but it's kindergarten compared with what so much of the rest of the world has experienced over the last 120 years.
I only write that because I believe that the USA is blessed, that the USA was raised to be God's champion, and that the USA paid the price to become the USA, but the level of disconnect and softness that has crept in to the American experience over the past 60 years is phenomenal.

Being detailed anywhere against free will sounds like prison to me any way you slice it.
You realize the holocaust was a hoax right?
“Muh 6,000,000 jews” isnt a historically accurate fact. Its more like a popular exaggeration, a figure of speech…

The fact that you met “survivors” is evidence that the holocaust was a hoax. Think it thru, mr einstein.
