If and when ethical people get back in charge, getting rid of for-profit prisons should be a top priority.

They already did for the most part. Republicans just brought them back. Conservatism itself needs to be eliminated

"Back" in charge? When were they ever in charge?

[–] decolo@piefed.social 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

which thing do you disagree with??

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nothing in the video. It’s all good. And he’s on the ballot for November. So - yay, right? Nope! “Nothing moral will ever happen” and “if he’s so against it why isn’t he chewing through the front gates now? Why does he need to get elected??”

Not aberrations, thats just how this comm rolls. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
