We live in a sick world.

100 million non voters and 62+ trump voters have made it a sick world.

the sheriff took $250,000 in “compensation” from “food provisions” in 2016

in 2016.

Fucking Democrats, acting like this shit isn’t common in the US, as if it hasn’t been common in the US forever, as if there isn’t a fucking constitutional amendment allowing enslavement of prisoners for fucks sake.

But sure, keep scapegoating “nonvoters” and not, you know, the ruling class that includes people like the Obama administration;-when this specific event began- or the Clinton administration that massively expanded the prison systems as well as people like Trump.  Fucking Democrats acting like they give a tiny fuck about prisoners now when it comes to cooking up demonizing nonsense about “non voters” somehow were fucking fine running a presidential candidate who used prisoners as slaves in her own fucking home and called Black people “superpredators” to try and justify longer and harsher prison terms.

Not to mention that the targets of this torture are people who are by definition non-voters when it’s happening, and, depending on the conviction, if they remain in Alabama, under current law could be permanently disenfranchised.  

In short: fuck the Democratic party, fuck Clinton, and fuck you too.
