    The Gulag was a government agency in the Soviet Union that administered forced labor camps, particularly during Joseph Stalin’s rule, especially in the 1930s through early 1950s. Stalin was not a Christian either. Similarly, if Putin considers you a threat, you may disappear. Trump has followed a similar approach, gathering loyalists in as many government positions as possible. He has vowed retribution against his perceived enemies, much like the forced internment camps the U.S. used for Japanese Americans during WWII. He may indeed imprison those who speak out against him, having already promised to deploy the National Guard against protesters.
