You kind of abandon the moral highroad when you turn this into a joke about prison rape. It says something bleak about the human condition that people are for prison reform until someone they don’t like gets sent to prison.
“It’s okay if people I don’t like get raped in jail” (Blade of the sun)
Okay, I’m pretty dumb about what goes on in prison, but how would they, other prisoners, know about his tweets and things he’s done?
Regardless, he better not drop the soap.
And here’s your annual reminder that all prison sentences in the United States are sentences to state-sanctioned slavery and rape.
The more you know.
I just looked this up and found two surprises.
- Prison rape seems to be in the low single digit percentages. The highest estimates seem to be a 20% life time chance. That’s still way too high but also a far cry from “all”.
- The abnormally large prison population in the US gives it the dubious honor of being the only country in the world where men are raped more than women.
The idea of prison rape being in the low single digits is also being extraordinarily conservative when we consider how safe someone feels to answer honestly in that kind of poll, especially if they were to answer from prison on a life sentence.
Good luck getting accurate answers in circumstances where revealing the conditions in which you exist might worsen or end your existence.
Nah Lemmy is ready to ride the prison rape joke when convenient.
Duck this dude but fuck prison rape more
Fuck Nick Fuentes, but let’s not celebrate prison rape. It just makes for broken people who are worse than when they went in and that cycle of abuse spreads outside prison walls.
