Where's your compassion?


Today, there are approximately two million people incarcerated in the United States’ jail and prison system. People with criminal justice histories are referred to in an array of dehumanizing labels, such as “inmates,” “criminals,” “prisoners,” “convicts,” “delinquents,” “felons,” and “offenders.” Even after people complete their sentence of incarceration and return to the community, oftentimes these labels follow. Terms like “ex-inmates,” “ex-prisoners,” “ex-convicts,” “ex-felons,” and “ex-offenders” are used to categorize and stigmatize people affected by the criminal justice system.

Dehumanizing labels stereotype and marginalize people rather than support them while they rebuild their lives. Individuals with justice system involvement are not defined by their conviction history. The words we use to reference people should reflect their full identities, and acknowledge their capacity to change and grow.

I have to say, there is a part of me, deep deep down inside, that really wants to know who writes his material.

I mean, I assume we all know that politicians don't do their own socials (other than maybe grassley, though it wouldn't surprise me if you asked chat gpt to write a tweet in the style of chuck grassley about something, that it could do it), and certainly not at the volume, rate, and trolling response "batting average" he produces.

Yes, you strike me as someone who is impressed by the office of the president 'trolling'.
 
Yes, you strike me as the sort that thinks the office of the president 'trolling' is 'good comedy'.
Good comedy can come from any place, any time, any where, and is always something to behold. Because it's often the most efficient way of communicating things that actually are important.

You know what makes comedy bad comedy? When the audience doesn't react. But his writers seem to have mysteriously solved that problem, all the time. I can't think of anybody making up material in near real time and getting the reactions as consistently as "he" does.

And like a typical MAGA, it doesn't surprise me that you don't know what good comedy is.

So you are good with the President of the United States workshopping (mid at best) comedy sets rather than governing as he was elected to do?

That's pretty f---ed up, man.
