I understand that nothing can be done to remedy the disgusting behavior that Chauvin did, but goddamn does it feel nice to see something like this. Chauvin spent a lot of his career tossing people into prison and was made an infamous part of US history in the 21st century when he brutally beat, chokes and murdered George Floyd. The 2 had worked together in the past, if Chauvin’s crime on its own wasn’t already 1st degree murder, that fact puts it over the top. To see someone like that in prison, and to know that he’s getting stabbed and living in fear, like the people he terrorized, well it doesn’t right any wrongs, but it’s something that you love to hear.

This is one of those rare points where I can casually stow my aims for carceral abolition. Couldn't happen to a more deserving recipient.

There is no contradiction between wanting everyone free one day and wanting a slavecatcher stabbed today

Dialectics!

Prison abolition for all except for fans of imprisonment
