    Jeet Heer Retweeted Glenn Greenwald

    Hilariously, Greenwald is preparing the ground for embracing the law and order politics and the carceral state because some 23 year old intern at The Intercept gave him side eyes about pronouns.https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/1393979845009358848 …

    As I said in the Editor's Note, I've long supported (and still do) the reformist movement in criminal justice prosecutorial approaches. But progressive outlets have presented a very one-sided story, erasing the real costs for working-class and poor people. pic.twitter.com/CIys2yKB0T

        TBF, he’s probably still anti-carceral when it comes to violent insurrectionists and murderous white supremacists

        Or maybe he’s been in bed with the Russians since 2013, and in bed with the Cato Institute and other unsavory types prior to that.

        I would’ve probably agreed w/ your take prior to seeing this woman’s story & others like hers. It made me see this issue is much more nuanced. I cannot begin to imagine the suffering this woman has endured.https://spectrumnews1.com/ca/la-west/public-safety/2021/03/22/parole-hearings-fuel-backlash-over-george-gasc-n-s-justice-reforms …

        Prosecutors have no particular insight or knowledge as to whether someone who has served a lengthy jail sentence has achieved the kind of rehabilitation deemed necessary for release.
