One woman got 30 years, because her husband moved PROHIBITED written material from her car. So he’s in trouble for moving it (Obstruction, or some such happy horseshit) and she’s in trouble for having it in her car. We don’t even know what the written material is, but very, very little written material could be prohibited under the 1st Amendment, and it’s this MAGA administration claiming it, so you KNOW it’s bullshit.
This is clearly using the brute force of the government to hurt critics, and they WANT us to holler about it. Go ahead, tell EVERYBODY what we did.
This is no less than a NEW offensive assault on any potential resistance, making it clear what will happen if anyone tries to commit any real act of protest. It is important to keep in mind a new DoJ policy that was revealed this past week:
The office of the Attorney General, Todd Flintstone, has sole authority over the prisons that inmates get sent to. So Ghislane Maxwell can be sent to a girl’s summer camp, while those people, whose crime was protesting the brutal treatment of the government, will be sent to General Population in the worst prisons in the federal system.
This is what we can expect from them over the next two years, under Attorney General Todd Flintstone. They just got the news that they can start deporting anyone they want to, so they are going to do that on an industrial scale. But the For-Profit Prison Corps will not tolerate a dip in their daily bed count, so they will need a new boogeyman to go after, and it will be those ANTIFA Terrorists. DHS sweeps out the Immigrants, AG brings in the Commies. Next will be…journalists, gays, people who criticize the government to dozens of people on Lemmy, why not all?
Eventually, their sentences will be found to be unconstitutional, and they’ll be released, if they live that long. One day in a place like that is too much for any innocent American citizen, and these people are likely to spend months or even years in there before they get justice, and are released. Those Parasites who put those people though that ordeal, not for justice for the American people, but to intimidate the American people into not resisting their corruption and brutal assault on our Citizens, need to be decisively handled, except they will have fully EARNED their long prison sentences.
The trauma from spending even a month in prison is enough to fully derail a person’s life, even aside from probably losing their job and having it go on their record.
On a psychological level, it’s just not easy to recover to a sense of normalcy after spending time in prison. The rest of one’s life is haunted by this constant threat, it can make it difficult to participate in social activities, perform basic tasks, or really enjoy doing anything at all. The prison follows you, is a part of you, lives deep within your own mind.
That’s one of the reasons for high rates of recidivism, aside from the socioeconomic structures that are baked into the system to present barriers to anyone who’s been to prison (or even jail).
The penal institutions are not designed to help people recover or reform their behavior. They’re there to punish, traumatize, and exclude, and as a threat to hold over people’s heads to keep them in line. And, of course, as a lucrative profit machine with a carve-out for legal slavery…
One of the things I saw in the article was ACAB with a burning police car, which could be considered a “call to violence,” but 30 years for that? That’s what someone could get if they themselves killed someone…
Oh god what did they do this time?
Exactly what’s stated in the meme. A person was sentenced to 3 decades behind bars because he moved a box of leftist literature
To any American who knows a little history, this is your “then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out…”-moment
We’ve been speaking out, it doesn’t make a difference. The problem isn’t that we’re not speaking out enough.
