Prison rape is wrong.
Jokes about prison rape are wrong.
Eliminating protections against prison rape is wrong.
If another country sentenced a criminal to be raped, we'd consider it a crime against humanity.
BUT
A large segment of Americans regard prison rape as a de facto part of the sentence.

The purpose of their killing is to show off how badass it is that they can kill
If you live under one of these regimes you should not count the people who carry out these crimes as morally distinct in any sense from Jeffery Dahmer or John Wayne Gacy

At the beginning of the drone war in the early 2000s, people fretted that the fact it was on the screen, you weren’t looking at a human being through a rifle sight, would end up making troops completely desensitized to the fact that they were killing people.
Anyways, they watched them for 41 min.

Devastating. Trump admin selling off historic public art to the highest bidder. "It is a tragic irony that murals meant to represent the contract between the government and its citizens would be sold to the highest bidder rather than preserved for posterity." www.alternet.org/trump-destro...
Trump admin selling off historic public art to the highest bidder
Painted figures haunt an empty building. A boy leaning on a pair of crutches. A father and son wandering a barren railroad track. A nuclear family at a picnic table. These poignant scenes were painted...

How to build a modern functional growing economy:
1) Depend on votes of pensioners from peripheral transfer dependent regions
2) Endlessly piss off people who live in your largest urban centres and attack their industries
3) Get rid of all the foreigners
4) Singapore is achieved!

Trump II and Starmer's government have a lot in common in that there is no actual plan to either bring prices down (Trump) or boost growth (Starmer) and instead what you get are the cabinet freelancing on their own portfolio with no overarching goals
