What? He/she wasn't relating it to oppressive camps at all. Perhaps re-read the comment.
I think that Facebook is relatively oppressive and authoritarian in the context of online services and social software in general. Extending the analogy to another context (death camps?) is... well, I don't know how to describe the irrelevance.
- davidhollander 15y agoYou missed his or her assertion of logical equivalence between Facebook and camp: >Facebook = camp. If Facebook is oppressive and authoritarian, and Facebook is camp, is camp oppressive and authoritarian? The absurdity of internment camps is relevant because his or her logic does not allow one to differentiate between the actions of Facebook and the actions of authoritarian government.
