@KeepTakingTheSoma @freepatriot @demonofustio Here's something mind boggling.
I have one of those gigantic dictionaries from 1957. Unabridged.
This book contains all sorts of words from the past, as well as those in (then) current usage. One would expect something that has been defined as a crime worse than murder to appear in such a dictionary.
But, in fact, the words "racism" and "racist" do not appear in that unabridged 1957 dictionary.

People get arrested for protesting and Americans say censorship is a myth.

Libertarians think that they should give up defending freedom because Americans hate liberty, but Libertarians should keep resisting tyranny for selfish reasons.
While the elites control the money, government, and media, the 99% have the numbers.
One Libertarian may not be able to resist being sent to the concentration camps, but one million people might.
Tyranny inherently involves the concentration of power in a single ruler or a small group, often leading to the suppression of basic freedoms and rights. This includes freedom of speech, movement, and association, which are essential for personal development and societal progress.
In a tyrannical system, leaders are not accountable to the populace. Without checks and balances, there is a high propensity for abuse of power, corruption, and exploitation.
Freedom is a fundamental principle that underpins the functioning of democratic societies and is essential for the development of individual potential.
The advantages of freedom can be examined from several perspectives, including social, psychological, economic, and political dimensions.
Freedom fosters creativity and innovation. When individuals are free to express themselves and pursue their interests, they are more likely to generate new ideas and solutions.

@demonofustio @freepatriot It is an interesting facet of modern life that there is a shortage of things that the bureaucracy craves; racism, transphobia, hate crime, climate denial, anti-vax etc etc. We need more of these to satisfy the number of jobs dedicated to combatting them. But if those in the business of combatting these evils are successful, then their jobs become redundant, so these evils can never die, but can only get worse. So we have to define the crime in broader and broader terms until we're all criminals by default.

@demonofustio @freepatriot They crack down for money. There are more "crimes" that require money to resolve than jail to resolve.

@AsukaNeko @freepatriot Ive been through the system. Its so god damn corrupted and sad. The fact they say they are trying to help or even say they are reintegrating the inmate for society norm is a BIG LIE! There is no proper program to prepare anyone outside of prison. Nor is there a proper program to really assist ex-cons in proper job searching. Because jobs dont hire ex-cons with status.
For ex. in the state of florida, a criminal back ground check is not limited. They can go back and check your records indefinitely with no limitation. Regardless if the crime was 17 years ago, companies will deny hire, even if they state it doesnt bar you of employment on the application. Which is fucking wrong.
