Well there it is. I can't understand why people thought this man was dead. Zero evidence, pure speculation. Liberal wish casting. Liberals are the ones who started this idea that he was dead. They wanted him dead in the same way they want Palestinians dead. So they can hold it over you.
The reality is this guy is being used to "show" that this place "isn't" torturous and murderous. That this place is "fine" if someone ends up there. As a means to counteract the news about the Republican torture tours.
He's a political asset and pawn. A "mascot" of the "fine service" El Salvador is providing.
How is it "liberal wish casting" to be surprised that someone sent to a concentration camp is alive? Of course there was no evidence, they haven't released a single person from the place.
Seriously, this liberal hating comment was such a stretch
A place where you're sent to for life without any opportunity for due process or leaving is literally a death camp. You stay there until you die. Death camp....
But its ok though they get to stay alive doing slave labour and live in torturous conditions until they die so its a fun camp actually... What the FUCK do you think concentration camps were before they became literally death camps? They were slave labour prisons you couldn't leave...
What the fuck is wrong with you freaks
Reddit, not even once
You could leave tho. Criminals and even socialists were sentenced and released after they did the time. It helped control the population if there was (prohibited) whisper about the conditions there.
Maybe because the Trump admin and Bukele were being very cagey and making every excuse to not confirm or deny that he was alive?
he's right they're laundering the prison with the photos but i think it was reasonable to conclude the guy was dead from how the governments were acting.
You can’t understand why people thought the guy the government disappeared into a foreign concentration camp then repeatedly and callously refused to demonstrate proof of life for might no longer be alive? How is that some huge leap in logic? And you’re framing this as if demanding proof of life was some con naive libs fell for. They should have, what, not looked into and just rolled over on the issue even more than they already have?
I guess? Politically speaking they would have wanted him kept well considering the people asking after him, but it's still politically a bad look on both governments if this guy is still not freed.
I think they're making some attempts at damage control, I dont think it's surprising that people didn't expect a politician to bother trying to find him, and when one did they scrambled to spin a story.
It'll work for some, but the crux is that both states claimed his freedom wasn't possible to facilitate because he couldn't be found, and now they'll have to keep justifying ways to keep him there, which in itself is just eyes on a story the governments of both countries would rather just go away.
