Also, seems kind of scary that this implies a future where so many people are in prison that their vote could actually tip the balance ?

    Tbf china and north korea are not as bad as the media portrays them as

    Prison camp = prison

    Slave labour = prison labour

    Both disproportionately imprison and kill minorities, but isn’t that also what the US does

      Given the rights prisoners have in many other countries, it might be better to say that things are just as bad in the US as the media paints other countries.

      Because, uh, prison labour is pretty fucking awful, especially when considering that y’all gots them private prisons down there.
