      I don't think it was always like this, or at least not to this degree. not that everything was great in the past but that the particular form of hollowing out of the state seems to have begun in the 80s and accelerated continuously for the last ~35 years.

      incarcerated population corroborates this pretty elegantly https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incarceration_in_the_United_States …pic.twitter.com/h3S59wShg7

          does increasing incarcerated population represent growth of state power? yes, it does. however it is state power wielded against its own population. metastatizing seems like a good way to describe that. hollowing out is descriptive too but in a different sense.

          the core of a liberal democratic state is supposed to be the consent of the governed. the implicit social contract is that the state works for the people, to uphold their interests and promote the general welfare. if they don't do this the core has become hollow.

          Part of it is that society went bugnuts back in the late 60's/early 70's and "tough on crime" got a major boost, resulting in sentencing getting WAY harsher in the 80's and continuing to date with few reversals.

          hiki's phrasing puts more intentionality into this than I think exists I think it's emergent from incentives. Rats crawling to the bow of a sinking ship.
