OOTL: Americans, what's going on with your alligators?

What's going on?

  • Florida has a lot of alligators – DeSantis is building a concentration camp in Florida (in the middle of Big Cypress National Preserve, a environmentally protected area) – and the conservatives came up with the bright idea of calling it “Alligator Alcatraz”

    [everyone else is trying to decide between “Alligator Auschwitz”, “Everglades Concentration Camp”, or “Gulag 34141”]

    • Gator Gulag has a ring to it but what the hell is wrong with Americans? So many things wrong with that

      • that’s what happens when you let corporations bribe lobby your politicians

        • I was born and raised in a country with plenty of deep seated corruption. I understand the mechanics allowing this to happen, but the style, that's american style. We didn't get things like these
