That's fair (it's unfortunate that this is a repost from yesterday as I think my wording was more nuanced before), but that's not what the article says, they specifically call out that they chartered flights for the CIA to move captive to an actual black site. This is the ambiguity that I called clickbait.
The immigrants being deported were allegedly mistreated during transport, that's true. That mistreatment can we likened to torture (I disagree with that part but for the sake of the argument) but the author bundles actual "legally defined" torture with what you call "moral" torture and that's were it becomes clickbait.
In a formal fashion:
- Group A was transported by C to be D
- Group B was transported by C to be E
- The headline claims A was E which is wrong unless D = E
My claim is that D (mistreatment of migrants likened to torture) isn't equivalent to E (actual black site torture).
