But I was assured by Fox news that he would be eaten alive by the other inmates.

As we all know, convicts are famously known for being supportive of corporate executives and the healthcare industry.

The criminals who rule us are for sure

Fox news has always had a finger on the pulse of the working class and inmates /s

They're intentionally torturing him hoping he goes crazy, thats why they leaked/released a picture of him after he peed his pants, most likely from being tazed or denied access to a toilet.

They want to portray him as a crazy loner like the Unibomber.

The US has become the very thing that we were taught it was founded to oppose.

[-] jagged_circle@feddit.nl 0 points 1 month ago

Can you name one year in US history where it wasn't that thing we were supposedly founded to oppose?

[-] blandfordforever@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

You're right. I can't.

Solitary confinement is torture.

When one is on suicide watch in jail, they leave the lights on 24/7. Drives down melatonin production, amongst other significant physiologic measures.

The other inmates calling for them to free him is fucking great. Them doing an interview with the inmates yelling out the window is fantastic.

"Through flashing lights and shouts, they communicated the prison conditions of their fellow inmate"

The criminals inside the jail working together for justice. The state is really dropping the mask off.

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Inmates, current and former, have been trying to tell us about prison conditions for a long time. It just gets brushed off as "Don't do the crime if you can't do the time" by the same people who setup our health insurance system and keep the stock market line going up at the expense of the food on your table. Not to mention the mountain of evidence about police being able to put any normal person in prison for crimes such as, "walking in a car town, walking while black, breathing while homeless, and refusing a search of your car" I mean there's just so many ways to say Resisting Arrest.

But yeah, we probably should listen to them, they might have a few points.

[-] uis@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

I think only few countries on entire planet whose prison systems are made to prevent crimes by solving people's problems instead of keeping them criminals by worsening them.

[-] x0x7@lemmy.world -1 points 1 month ago

Maybe we can put the state on trial. They always want to talk about how much of a pro or an amateur he is. It's a strange obsession. The only amateurs I see are "experts", cops, media. Of course I don't want them to be better. They can just fock off.

I highly recommend everyone read Blood in the Water: The Attica Prison Uprising of 1971 and Its Legacy. The total cluster fuck that happened to the inmates and the officers should show how the government and prison system feels about everyone.

It'd be icing on the cake if he can bring terrible prison conditions to the spotlight as well.

[-] Manalith@midwest.social -1 points 1 month ago

Imagine it'll be hard for them to Epstein him if all of the inmates care about his well-being

Nah, he doesn't have info that'll expose/hurt anyone else and if they kill him he'll be a martyr and even more of an icon than he already is, "they" absolutely don't want that.

[-] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

What's the opposite of getting shanked because the other inmates find out you're in for csam?

[-] curiousaur@reddthat.com 1 points 1 month ago

Shanking the guards and helping them escape.

[-] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 0 points 1 month ago

Everyone treats you like a bro because they would have done the same thing?

[-] phx@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

"What're you in for?"

"Offing an insurance CEO after his companies decided to cap the amount of anaesthetics they'd cover for operations"

"Duuuuuddde. Would you like my canteen ticket?"

Jump in a green pipe or find a warp whistle, Luigi.
