RFK Jr. thinks that “poppers” cause AIDS.
In don’t think that recreational poppers were in wide circulation in the 1930’s.

Still what a wild statistic bsky.app/profile/bolt...
An astonishing 80 percent of the Louisiana's death sentences between 1976 and 2015 were later reversed.
A judge recently vacated the conviction of Chris Duncan, who had been on the state's death row for decades.

He’s Been On Louisiana’s Death Row for Decades. A Judge Just Vacated His Conviction.
Chris Duncan’s longtime claims of innocence were boosted by the discrediting of bite mark analysis, and by recent reforms now under threat from the state’s Republican leadership.

If the book is mega out of print and you can’t get a used copy it’s fine to get a scanned pdf but otherwise just buy it lol. Libraries and book stores are two of the only enriching spaces we have left in this country.

Giving money to people IS politically palatable. It depends on who's receiving the money. Some white grifter with big talk and ideas gets money!
Everyday people who need food and shelter? No money for you! Giving everyday people money would have huge immediate, generational, and societal impacts.

People need food. Market won’t provide it. The government can. The government should.
People needing food does not necessarily imply government run grocery stores. Just as it does not imply government owned bakeries or millers or wheat fields.
Direct cash transfers are strong as a policy but not politically palatable.
