A greeting similar to "take care".
Has two separate origins:
One from old Hebrew, and Yiddish where taken from a common greetings literal translation to "be well"
The other is coined from the movie "Demolition man" meant to sound like an evolution of slang that was meant to sound strange to contemporary viewers.
However the movie was a popular cult classic and the slang became commonly used in the following years, until the term became a common contemporary email signature in popular culture today.

In conversation or online, this is a phrase directed at leftists by liberals. They use is it when a leftist (e.g., someone against the US government's facilitating ethnic cleansing) suggests they, for example, might not support a Democratic candidate in an election. The liberal is suggesting that, by not supporting the Democratic candidate willingly funding genocide, the country will elect a right-wing candidate who will throw the leftist and their family into a concentration camp. By implication, In this scenario, the middle-of-the-road liberal knows that they and their family will NOT end up in a camp because they will escape notice. By further implication, but perhaps not admitted by the liberal, the liberal will escape the camps because they will hide or change their purported values. Historically, in Nazi-era Germany, Romania, Portugal, and elsewhere, the liberal center, when given a choice between fascists and the left, have chosen fascists. This was because the fascists offered "order" and the protection of their property (as long as the liberal was of the correct race or politics).
Original poster: Far be it from me to tell anyone how to vote, but if these college kids don't rally around the Dem candidate the Republican will be a nightmare. He'll round up protestors.
Leftists respondent: well, for the kids currently being literally blown to pieces by American-made bombs, authorized for export by the Dem candidate, there is no greater nightmare.
Original poster: oh, you don't want to vote for the Democrat? Well, then have fun in the camps!
