> It pretty much follows the definition of a concentration camp.
No, it doesn't, and even to the partial extent it does, is HIGHLY disingenuous. Here is the definition of concentration camp:
a place where large numbers of people, especially political prisoners or members of persecuted minorities, are deliberately imprisoned in a relatively small area with inadequate facilities, sometimes to provide forced labor or to await mass execution. The term is most strongly associated with the several hundred camps established by the Nazis in Germany and occupied Europe in 1933–4
By calling it a concentration camp you are implying that migrants engaged in border crossings are political prisoners or persecuted minorities, which is flatly false. Furthermore you are loading the comment with obvious semantic baggage of the Nazi concentration camps and their horrors in order to massively exaggerate the blame and moral culpability of anyone associated with them.
