In order to not get banned from social media, I'm not going to say what I think is an appropriate punishment for someone who leaks their own children's nude photos on the internet.
6 things for you to remember on this Holocaust Remembrance Day:
1. Power allows bad people to be monsters. Hitler on a cul-de-sac is a jerk that ends up getting shot for trespassing. Hitler in government sparks a genocide and plunges the world into war, killing 100s of millions.
2. A disarmed people are a vulnerable people. The first move any oppressor makes before victimizing his target is to rob them of the ability to fight back.
FUN FACT: Hitler didn't pass gun control. He targeted Jews using gun control laws that were passed by the Weimar Republic.
3. The infrastructure they use to oppress others will eventually be used against you.
Many of the concentration camps that were used during the holocaust were built decades prior to hold "enemy civilians" (refugees).
Turns out you can put anyone in a cage once it's built.
Biden's order directing DOJ to stop renewing private prison contracts just means they're putting the prisoners in government-run prisons.
No one's being set free. The cage is just being changed.
And it doesn't even apply to the privately-run border camps because those are DHS contracts, even though those were the ones with the biggest problems.
For those who wonder if this somehow reduces lobbying for higher prison populations, three of the biggest lobbying groups in the prison industrial complex are corrections officer unions, prison construction firms, and prison labor contractors.
Last day of the Donald Trump presidency. Let's see where we're at on those 2016 campaign promises!
1. "I will build a great wall, and Mexico will pay for it!"
Only 80 miles of new wall was built where there was none before. Mexico didn't pay for it... you did.
2. "If I become president, we're all going to be saying 'Merry Christmas' again."
...
3. "I'll eliminate 'Department of Environment Protection' (EPA)"
He did cut the budget, but the EPA is still alive and well. In fact, he felt the EPA was necessary enough to look into his claim of “People are flushing toilets 10 times, 15 times as opposed to once."
No, really.
