  • Well, I dunno. Pardons are good when the justice system fails and locks up innocent people for decades. The burden of proof on appeals is set so high that the appeals system is broken in and of itself. Think about all the racially motivated prosecutions throughout the years, the unjustly prosecuted anarchists, the bribed juries, the kangaroo court shenanigans, etc. How many stories have we heard of cops badgering the wrong person for dozens of hours in interrogation until they got false confessions? All because cops’ egos are so absurd that they refuse to admit they might have come to the wrong conclusions with incomplete information. I’m all for pardons in crimes against individuals. The problems isn’t in the case structure, it’s in the person doling out the pardons.






  • Hm. I dunno. That’s such a weird statement lol

    I mean, the entire interview is for viewers and not interviewees, right? A “gotcha” moment in a debate between people at a lunch table still makes the gotted (lol) person start to panic and stumble over their words and start vomiting nonsense much like we saw here. If you have two opposing views and one person gets the upper hand, both people know it (even if the other person absolutely refuses to admit it, which they almost never do)








  • lol you’re thinking of the people who are now fully supporting the fascism. They were the ones literally threatening to kill me for being against the patriot act and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and George fucking bush. Those people will still tell you all of those things—in the same breath that they tell you the country is going down the drain because brown people exist.
