They need to be abolished, not reformed.

Yes but it seems more feasible to try to avoid people starving in there in the medium term. Abolishing them is a good goal to pursue in addition. It's just more difficult.
Fair analysis. But we should lose sight of the goal to end this horror.

Kind of like "end slavery" vs "make living conditions for slaves better".

Then what would be your solution to detainees pending removal?
Don't "detain" (kidnap) and "remove" (mass deport) them?

I don't like the whole system of masked guys without badgets picking up kids from the street and putting them in camps to be deported. Do you get my sentiment?

Especially since the country doing it has no, literally no moral reason to claim the land. USA is a settler colonialist project.

They even tried deporting native americans! This whole shit has to stop.
