You are falling for everything nowadays. I'm German and know that there would be an outrage if those detention camps were real. Fines-very possible, detention camps (for Germans) after 1945?

According to the article they are either already there or planned to be build. So which one is it? The building in the article seems to be just random. I was looking for the source and showed the link to my man. He told me that RT is Russia Today... Good to know that you guys know what's happening in my country right now. You are just as gullible as the left and everyone in between. I couldn't find other news sources reporting about this huge thing, except for our Russian friends.

How odd. I see it here: https://nypost.com/2021/01/18/german-quarantine-breakers-to-be-held-in-refugee-camps/ And they reference it here: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/01/17/germans-keep-refusing-quarantine-could-put-detention-centres/ and here: https://www.welt.de/politik/plus224367844/Quarantaenebrecher-Laender-schaffen-Zentralstellen-zur-Zwangseinweisung.html It also references this tweet which shares the above link: https://twitter.com/JoanaCotar/status/1350746606807744515

While most sources I see just quote those, there was also this one: https://gript.ie/germany-detention-centres-covid-quarantine/ and here: https://metro.co.uk/2021/01/19/germany-covid-rule-breakers-could-be-put-into-quarantine-centres-13930409/

But the vast majority quote the first two articles and use similar language. As for "falling for everything", I am seeing this article on a few different sites, including Washington Examiner, Daily Telegraph, Euro Weekly, and Daily Express. The top 5 google news results for "germany quarantine camps" also all come back to these articles.

The telegraph article starts off by saying "could be put" not "are getting put", which seems more alarmist. I don't read german and the welt paper is not fully translated for me, but it seems to be saying that it was a desired outcome if people are refusing to quarantine.

As most in the US do not get current news for countries in Europe, and now suddenly there are several articles, why would you assume gullibility?
