They definitely aren’t erasing it in CA. My kid was taught to refer to them as concentration camps instead of internment camps.

It is a totally accurate term but it felt like a strong change after calling the Nazi camps by that name.

Right, concentration originally meant bring together. But then was conflated with torture and death camp via Europe.

But the American ones brought them into isolation, not primarily the other things. The terminology is now messy.
