Bootcamp!! Reminded me more of Autswitz!
Am I the only one that was appalled with the twist to tonights episode. Your thru and then you are not!
It reminded me of the documentaries on Nazi concentration camps where the SS presided over the life and death of the inmates. May make good TV but to exercise that degree of control over peoples emotions hopes and fears is nothing short of sick. I am thoroughly disgusted and will not be watching it anymore. |

It happens in the real world of music all the time. They haven't signed a musical contract so really , they can do anything they like.

Okay... A little extreme there.
I didn't see anyone being gassed or shot or starving to death, so no I disagree entirely, it was nothing like Auschwitz |

Its the control and if you are not thru you are metaphorically dead. It was akin to exercising the power of life and death. Think outside the box.

So they should just keep everyone in and no-one ever goes home? |

Whilst I do agree that this thread isn't in the best taste (and it is spelt Auschwitz), I can see where the original OP was coming from, what with the final segment of people going into big empty rooms to find their final fate.

Dont be a twit. The issue I have is that the ones they told were thru thought they were thru only for them to be told you are not and 30? nned to go. It was a disgrace and was crass TV.
I defend my parellel with the concentration camps because decisions over life and death were equally frivilous. |

Can you think of a better one?
You have survived - actually you haven't. 4 individuals exercise this power. |

When you think about it, the six million or so people who were exterminated by the Nazis all put themselves forward willingly before their executors, all with the hope that one (or indeed a group of them) would win the ultimate prize of a £1 million pound recording contract. Oh hang on, they didn't. They were forced from their homes to be brutally killed for no good reason apart from their family background, their religion, their sexual orientation, their beliefs, their mental health state or quite simply because they opposed a brutal regime. You are being utterly, utterly crass and stupid beyond belief. |

I think everyone on here is sensitive. Stop focusing on the Nazis etc - its the CONTROL AND POWER I am emphasising and the outrageousness of those 4 numpties on the show. Try asking the ones who thought they were thru and then not - I think they would fully support this analogy.

Who the f**k is this idiot who made this thread? :
![]() How the f**k can you compare the murder of 6 million Jewish people to an audition. Bugger off and get a taste of reality before making such a piss poor comment like that. Absolutely ridiculous to say such things. How can they compare? I'm sorry for the strong language. But in this case its warranted. |
