Depending on your perspective, either the Americans half-assed their camps, or the Germans overbuilt theirs.

We couldn't find any builders for the concentration camps as the builders are in concentration camps.

Speaking as an American, America half-asses everything.

Everything is a grift with them, even genocide. They are probably embezzling most of the funds.

Yea probably this. Nazi Germany was in a sick way proud of their very efficient and stylish dictatorship. Trump's just here for the show, he wants minimal costs and maximum profit for the billionaires. There isn't even any nationalism here it's just a facade, this is about billionaires tramping (or trumping) over the rest to see how far they can push their oligarchy.

Something I've noticed is that the Trump regime is doing fascism with absolutely no style. The Nazis were awful, but they looked good being awful, literally, as in they had Hugo Boss doing their fashion and Volkswagens to drive around in. Trump just has the cheapest stuff that still works, tents for the camps and generic military gear for the secret police. I think it says a lot about the nature of the Trump regime.

Apparently even things that start out shitty are susceptible to enshittification

The Germans built death camps.

Trump is building cruelty centres. You don't need much to starve and degrade people. Just cages, bright lights turned on 24/7, and a lack of food and fresh water.

I'm sure these will be upgraded to death camps, but for now they just want to see brown people suffer. Once they get tired of that, they'll start the killing.

In 1933 the first concentration camps also had massive improvised parts. It took about a year for them to be run fully professional. Conditions also became worse over time, with the start of WW2 being a huge step. That was also the start of the extermination camps, which were meant for genocide. Concentration camps were "just" really horrible prisons, which also had criminal and political prisoners, which were actually partly released.

This is just early concentration camp. Good chance it gets worse.

The only competent people they have are the ones they want in the camps.
