I don’t think any nation should be based on religion actually

How Jewish American pedophiles hide from justice in Israel

One woman who helps track suspects down says the little-discussed problem is widespread; "the exact same thing" as the sex abuse scandal in

here’s the reference

it’s not an anti-jewish canard, it’s a recognition of what the state of israel literally does

a jewish organization is actually leading the charge to find these people and bring them to justice once they flee to israel and they do good work

the right of return is easily exploited by criminals, that’s a real problem

While an Israeli minister condemns Iran as a "cruel terrorist regime" for striking a hospital for Israeli soldiers in Tel Aviv, the record shows Israel have repeatedly bombed, raided, and besieged every single medical facility in Palestine's Gaza since October 7, 2023.

Facebook post from Matt Norris.

Post reads like a conversation between 2 people:

Prison labor is a problem we need to address soon.

Convicts in prison should have to work like the rest of us.

You mean like slavery?

No, we’re giving them 3 meals and a bed, at our expense, while they just sit around and watch TV. They should have to work!

Right. Like slavery.

It’s not like slavery!

Can they leave?

No.

Can they refuse work?

No.

So how exactly isn’t this slavery?

We DO pay them!

Do we pay in accordance with labor laws?

No. We pay them between 33 cents and $1.41/hour with a maximum daily wage below $5, then take up to half of that as room&board fees and victim compensation.

Right. So like slavery.

BUT.

No.

Image then links to this url.

How much do incarcerated people earn in each state?

Prison wages come up again and again in the context of prison conditions and policies. So, we found the most up-to-date information for each

Below URL image reads “fun bonus fact: enough of our labor market currently relies on labor at these depressed rates, that it has a substantial downward pressure on both wages and job availability in low-skilled sectors. Immigrants aren’t taking your jobs. Slavery is.

End description.

I’d also like to add it’s not just private prisons. It’s also private detention centers where ICE keeps the immigrants.

[regicide1997]

The constitution even acknowledges that it’s still slavery

[brunhiddensmusings]

a hefty chunk of items with that ‘made in america’ sticker are in fact made by prison labor at the very least anything that is a product of prison labor should be required to have a similar sticker to inform consumers they are taking part of this system, which is difficult to track because prison made manufactured goods include almost the entire uniform of a US soldier, road construction in most southern states, and agricultural goods sold in most stores

this…. looks familliar

[mushimononoke]

Prison is just covert slavery and that’s why they wanna keep so many black people in there for the smallest offences.

This is insane

[metalheadsagainstfascism]

(Just to clarify, I’m not saying you’re wrong. I’m just giving you more information because you’re right, and I like your blog, and I want you to have sources in case you need them.)

It’s not even covert. It’s blatant and overt. It’s even called slavery in the constitution.

“Slavery is illegal except as punishment for a crime.”

The 13th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution

SECTION. 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, sh

Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

People just don’t care because they think it’s all murderers and rapists, despite the fact that the number of violent criminals in jail is so small it might as well be negligible.

Incarceration in the United States - Wikipedia

As of September 30, 2009 in federal prisons, 7.9% of sentenced prisoners were incarcerated for violent crimes,[39] while at year end 2008 of sentenced prisoners in state prisons, 52.4% had been jailed for violent crimes.[39] In 2002 (latest available data by type of offense), 21.6% of convicted inmates in jails were in prison for violent crimes. Among unconvicted inmates in jails in 2002, 34% had a violent offense as the most serious charge. 41% percent of convicted and unconvicted jail inmates in 2002 had a current or prior violent offense; 46% were nonviolent recidivists.[46]

It’s literally slavery, just dumbass racists and capitalists don’t care enough to figure out why we’re calling it that.

[hinekoakahi]

Actually, no, I got something to add and it’s this video by Knowing Better on Youtube:

Slavery is baked into the US American system so much more firmly than anyone ever really acknowledges.

[amuseoffyre]

There’s a very good and very hard-hitting documentary about it on Netflix

[rainstormdragon]

Also… even if someone has committed a violent crime, enslaving them is… ya know… still a fucked up thing to do? How is that even in question?

The whole discourse of “well they’re not even all violent offenders” has this weird undertone of ‘if they’re good people they shouldn’t have to be slaves’ that horrifies me. Even if 100% of them were violent, Slavery. Is. Wrong. All humans have rights.

[starfleetshrimps]

i would highly recommend “American Prison” by Shane Bauer. it’s a sickening read, by a journalist who went undercover as a prison guard and the things he saw and was made to do and did voluntarily. but extremely good, and in many ways necessary. he has some articles that are basically abridged versions as well, if you don’t want to or can’t read the whole book

[russianimperialist]

The anti-Marxist theoreticians condemn terrorism in the forms in which it manifests itself today, but they make no distinction between acts of terrorism and the militant actions towards revolution which the working class, led by a Marxist-Leninist party, has to carry out. Being against the revolution, they are against any action, and the state power of the bourgeoisie and its social-democratic and revisionist defenders call any such action, any attempt in this direction, and any military organization of the working class, led by the Marxist-Leninist party, a terrorist act. Indeed, the revisionists vote in favour of strengthening the police and security organs in order to combat terrorism and anarchism. This means allowing the bourgeoisie a free hand to attack any form of organization and struggle of the working class and its vanguard to liberate itself from the yoke of capitalism.

this opens up an interesting discussion of propaganda

because hamas absolutely killed children and infants during their attack

but there is absolutely no proof of 40 beheaded babies, anywhere

so why tell the story? because propaganda built on a kernel of truth is useful

when someone says “there is no proof that hamas beheaded 40 babies” the propagandist can respond “so you deny hamas’ war crimes?”

no, crimes absolutely occurred. but making those crimes sound worse than they actually were only serves to justify much more drastic responses. if your enemies are supposedly willing to behead babies, what are you then allowed to do to them on return?

telling the truth is important, whether you’re on the right side of a conflict or not. because if you’re willing to lie about what they do, are you willing to lie about what you’ve done?

this post is about the hundreds of children and infants killed in israel and palestine and the conversation about which ones deserve retribution

[last-tarrasque]

One child died in Oct 7th, as far as we know Israel could (and probably did) murder them, as we know Israel slaughtered it's own people, as they themselves have admitted. Don't spread this kind of fucking propaganda for Israel.

This shit is fucking gross and you should be ashamed of yourself, if you refuse to stand with Palestinian rifles, then don't pretend to stand with Palestinian corpses, Palestinians don't owe it to you to be perfect saintly victims.

What crimes did Hamas commit, they fought back in the only effective manner they could. Decolonization is bloody, messy and isn't going to look pretty, I'm sorry if this offends your first world feelings.

[syndicalism-tango]

whether they’re justified or not they were crimes, even in war there are crimes

my post was phrased in a way to open up conversations with people who may not agree with me, and who may have different perspectives on what happened than i do, in an effort to use their own beliefs to change their minds about what is happening

if you want to talk privately im more than happy to, but know that i stand with palestine in their struggle for freedome and i absolutely do not intend to spread propaganda for israel

my “first world feelings” are only offended by the actions of israel and the support they recieve from the west

Israel confirms it is arming Hamas rivals in operation opposition calls ‘complete madness’ | CNN

Israel is arming local militias in Gaza in an effort to counter Hamas in the besieged enclave, officials say, as opposition politicians warn

Israel is arming local militias in Gaza in an effort to counter Hamas in the besieged enclave, officials say, as opposition politicians warned that the move endangers national security.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defended the covert enterprise on Thursday, calling it “a good thing.” In a video posted on social media, Netanyahu said Israel had “activated clans in Gaza which oppose Hamas,” and that it was done “under the advice of security elements.”

Former defense minister and Netanyahu rival Avigdor Liberman divulged the move on Israel’s Ch. 12 News on Wednesday, saying that Israel was distributing rifles to extremist groups in Gaza and describing the operation as “complete madness.”

“We’re talking about the equivalent of ISIS in Gaza,” Liberman said one day later on Israel’s Army Radio, adding that Israel is providing weapons to “crime families in Gaza on Netanyahu’s orders.”[...]

One group that has received weapons from Israel is the militia led by Yasser Abu Shabab, officials said. Abu Shabab heads an armed group that controls some territory in eastern Rafah and he has posted photos of himself holding an AK-47 rifle with UN vehicles behind him. Though Abu Shabab has denied receiving weapons from Israel, Hamas has accused him of being a “traitor.”

[indijewnous]

This is true about Hamas. You're literally describing how Hamas frames the targeting of Hamas military installations under hospitals as "Evil Jews attacking vulnerable Arabs." It's a blood libel meant to dehumanize Jews. It's Hamas propaganda meant to stoke latent antisemetism that people absorb through pop culture media. That's how they get all these kids saying that hate Jews to the point where they've started openly killing Jews out in the open. Remember the museum? Remember Boulder? Or do you get amnesia when it's Jews getting horrifically murdered in cold blood?

[syndicalism-tango]

it is Also true of Hamas

it’s true of most governments and militaries

lying, to justify the bad things they do to their enemies, doing bad things for what they say are good reasons

this isn’t unique to israel or hamas or any government or military

it happens pretty regularly, im from the US, i know about governments lying to justify war crimes in the middle east

none of what you said in your reponse justifies the idf lying about what hamas did, you’re simply trying to change the subject and accuse me of antisemitism, something I predicted you would do in my post

[hole34s]

do not let the actions of specific "pro palestinians" represent the pro-palestinien movement as it was meant to be

yes, there are antisemetic pro-palestinians. no, the movements itself is not inherently antisemetic. the pro-palestinian movement is a campaign for human rights for all.

anything else it's been twisted into by antisemites is not what it was meant to be. i do not deny there are antisemites within the movement, but the movement is not meant to be antisemetic. human rights for all means human rights for jews, israelis, and palestinians. the reason palestinians are the primary focus is because the movement focuses on THEIR human rights, but that doesn't mean jews and israelis don't deserve human rights - there are other movements for jewish rights. multiple movements can and should coexist.

BLM doesn't mean "hispanic people don't deserve human rights", it's just the focus on human rights for black people, the same way the pro-palestinian movement focuses on human rights for palestinians, NOT DENYING OTHER PEOPLE DESERVE THE SAME RIGHTS.

it is completely valid to condemn the antisemitism of some people claiming to be within the movement, but it is not valid to claim palestinian people do not deserve human rights because of it. don't let antisemites co-opt everything. let movements be true to what they are meant to be.

So do you think anybody is going acknowledge that Hind Rajab should have been celebrating her 7th birthday today with her family? Do you think anybody is going to acknowledge that?

[iron-lion-of-zion]

@thebisexualwreckoning you know that fake "hind rajab" person was never real, right?

Do smooth brains really think a modern military would or need to "besiege" a car with a kid in it for ??? reasons rather then just blow it up?

Or that the fake toddler in the car had a cell phone they somehow managed to use for several days straight 😂

Goys just love a good blood libel

[syndicalism-tango]

you’re so close to understanding

why Would a modern military “need” to do anything like that?

satellite surveillance already confirms that it Did happen, so we also know that the IDF lied about it. why would they do that if they didnt think they did anything wrong?

maybe some military forces just wanted to shoot and kill a family. it wouldnt be the first time that’s happened, lord knows the american military has done it

what makes the IDF so different?
