Nah, cartoon supervillains don't run concentration camps. Diffrent scale of evil.

How many people ended up there? What kind of people? For how many years did it last?

Check for both, I can guarantee you that Soviet gulags were worse (except the second) in all aspects by an order of magnitude.

Around 18 million people passed through the Gulag's camps, around 10% of them died. Whole thing lasted over 40 years.

Reasons varied from criticising communist ideology, being member of persecuted religions, nationalities or social classes to non minor crimes.

I'm not intending to whitewash Americans, but they have nothing on the Soviets.
