There's that story about a boy who cried "wolf".
Unless you literally mean "being put in camps", you shouldn't use this as a metaphor for less dangerous events.
Also ... why do you even think it would be better otherwise. A reminder - the other mainstream option was that party that didn't even care about picking a popular enough candidate. Almost a kingdom inside the nation. They literally imitated Idiocracy, thinking that'll be popular.
Anyway, as someone in Russia - I both appreciate that you over there still have some democracy and wish for you to see the fake parts of it as early as possible.
They do mean literally. Ethnic Americans already are.
If you mean native American reservations, then it's possible to leave them, there are no barbed wire fences and machine gun tops, and in general it's not the same.
If by "ethnic" you mean not "white", then there are probably plenty of variants.
I meant Americans with non white ethnicity.
