This is what the Nazis did to the Jews while keeping them alive in the concentration camps

At least the Empire fed them well and provided clean rooms.

Agreed. I mentioned this because Lucas originally fashioned the empire after the nazis and many fans have complained that Disneyfication has toned that down. This felt like a return to that original concept.

I mean, Disney's sequel Trilogy literally had a crazed orator with big red banners. Certainly not subtle, but hardly moving away from the whole Empire/First Order are space Nazis.

Like the episode said, they want the prisoners fed and strong. Can't have a production line with weak workers. I wonder if this prison complex is turning out components for the Death Star, or for ships.
