A new chapter of Settlers just dropped. Genuinely amazing how corporations are people and money is speech, but the minute Black folk start playing the settler's games to keep our own out of chattel slavery, it becomes illegal.

Money = speech! Wait, no, not like that angery

It would be interesting to see someone challenge this through reference to Citizens United. If people can pool their funds to ~~bribe~~ donate to politicians and have it count as speech, it sure as shit seems like bail funds should count as protected as well. I know that the supreme court doesn't give a shit about precedent or consistency, but it would make for a good public spectacle to force them to say that (again).
