    You had a point until the response became twice as long and disproportionate to the original comment. He didn’t even say “forced.”

    I agree the term is overly hyperbolic, but let’s maybe dial it back dude

        Well, I think people need to be a little patient with folks who use terms like “dumb” and “moron,” by it behooves you to maybe consider why people are bringing that up now.

        It’s kind of like the R word. Mocking people for things they can’t control, especially things with a history of leading to persecution, is not OK. “Moron” unfortunately does have a very troubled history as a term so they aren’t wrong. Same reason I am trying not to use words like “crazy” when describing people’s behavior.

      Forced is part of what a “labor camp” is.

      Labor camp is not a place you send your kids in the summer.
