Brian Sonenstein added,
how convenient is it that everything bad white people have done throughout history can be neatly excused by "different times"... and yet, rarely is there curiosity about what wrongfully passes as "acceptable" in our day and age... how intellectually lazy and shameless can you be
one reason this take is a pile of shit is that "tough on crime" policies were not an inevitable result of high crime rates! they were a set of deliberate choices animated by racism among the media, law enforcement, and politicians.
this argument wants to blame crime rates for increased punitiveness and absolve the decision-makers in the process. and that sucks
As if we didn’t just litigate the crime bill 2-3 years ago. Saying the 80s and 90s were a diffeeent time, literally our younger years, is such a cop out. Thanks for this thread Brian.
National Prison Strike Demands #3 and #4!! This was a strike national prison strike 8 or 9 months ago. What was named again? The crime bill of 94'. So yeah its DEFINITELY having a present day impactpic.twitter.com/6SvVP7JF6D
