Can we count just how many horrid 20th century chapters of humanity this might evoke?
In a move that sounds straight out of Orwell, Amsterdam allocated 1 million euros last week to a plan that would relocate trouble-making neighbors to camps on the outskirts of the city, the BBC reports.
The “scum villages,” as critics have called them, would lie in isolated areas and provide only basic services to their unwilling residents. According to details of the plan reported by Der Spiegel and the BBC, residents will live in “container homes,” under the watchful eye of social workers or police. The residents themselves might not make very good company. According to the BBC, they’ll include families that engage in repeated, small-scale harassment, like bullying gay neighbors or intimidating police witnesses.
Or perhaps just people whose political and social perspectives annoy the ruling class...

Sounds like they are targeting moslems. Who else would be intimidating police witnesses there?
I propose D.C. to be a scum village.
Already is.
prostitution and drugs are legal but they still have troublemakers??
How is that possible??

They need to concentrate their problem people so they’re easier to keep an eye on. So if you concentrate people, you have concentration camps. Those always work so well.
Sort of like the camps Margaret Sanger wanted to set up?
but the article made a solid point, anyone who is not a socialist will be exiled there too. More better to prosecute and imprison the ones who are a menace in Amsterdam.
Where they took a perfectly good swamp and turned it into a sewer...
Washington DC is already set up and the best inmates are already included too. All it needs is the fence. Very economical this way.
LOL! So true. ;-)
” Wasn’t Anne Frank in Holland? “

I have been to the Anna Frank house.
Amsterdam is nice to visit.
There is the Van Gogh museum, the Rembrandt house, and the Anna Frank house.
The Red Light district is an interesting display of the depravity in culture.
We have places like that called public housing.
In their ignorance and bias, the Amsterdam government might well throw some pretty enterprising folks into the "scum villages" - or people who see that enterprising is the best choice out of a bad lot. The more the "scum villages" are used for political prisoners [i.e., people who've done nothing wrong except holding politically incorrect opinions], the more middle class those "scum villages" will end up becoming. Even a prison camp can be a node of freedom if the guards can't be bothered to do anything except snooze - or get the idea that their jobs become easier by looking the other way.
And, of course, Australia began life as a prison colony - one that was run pretty brutally in its heyday.
Considering that athiests, Muslims, and leftists hate Jews and Christians, whom do you think it more likely to end up.ib those camps?
Probably got the idea from watching “Trailer Park Boys” (Canadian series).
Dunno. Has possibilities. I’d prefer “scum villages” to Section 8 housing programs.
WE already have those “scum villages” here in the US...
They’re called “Detroit, Chicago, LA, Philly....”
Detroit?
I like your outlook, subversionarily freedom enhancing.
