It's painful to know that there's a nation that believes children deserve starvation for being born, torture for being human, and brutal murder for wanting to survive just because a relative MIGHT have forgotten to bow before an image of a vile monster, and know that there's very little we can do about it because the monster has nukes.

This camp does not house murders, or rapists. They house childern of political prisoners.....let that sink in.

I just wanted to express a tiny bit of appreciation for the small disclaimer that the animations are made by humans. With so many companies and channels using ai to construct everything now, it’s comforting to see some creators still put in the effort, still watching the video. But as always, you guys killed it

The scariest part of all of this is to think about all the death camps we don’t and will ever know about. Just imagining all the people no different to us who have been put through all these abuses their whole life, with no one to tell their stories. Every one of these videos just reminds me how lucky we are no matter how tough it gets.

7:51 The way he smiled when he said it was completely up to him if he wanted to kill them or not was pure evil

Just imagine being born and living your entire life with no purpose or existence whilst forcibly slowly working and starving to death. Truly evil this
