In European colonies during World War 2, they absolutely rounded up German civilians to put in semi-prison as a potential threat, once it came to a big shooting war in Europe.

Now I’m not saying that’s exactly how it would play out under Thousand-Year Reich 2 Electric Boogaloo, but the point is that while the “people might associate me with the idiot gang” ship has already sailed under Bush 2 and under Trump, there are plenty of other more significant boats that haven’t pushed out yet.
