    I want to vote for the guy who has the FULL AND UNEQUIVOCAL SUPPORT OF THE LARGEST PRIVATE PRISON CORPORATION IN THE WORLD WHO MAKES MONEY BY IMPRISONING PEOPLE LIKE ME!

      The Leopards Eating My Face Party knows that none of them will ever end up in a prison because of any of the Leopard Face-Eating policies.

    Project 2025. Mass deportation, followed by mass incarceration, followed by actual slavery using prisoners for labor. They’re going to make untold billions if Trump wins.

      Trump never answered the question about mass deportations during the debate. He avoided it like the plague.

            Look man, I know that Trump is 78 years old and a fascist, but Biden is 81 years old and not a fascist. That doesn’t really speak to me, you know? Like, I know that Republicans want to make life worse for women, the LBTQIA community, immigrants, Black Americans, set fire to the environment, give every last penny I have to billionaires, sell my children into permanent wage slavery, and ban porn, but I just can’t decide if voting for an old man who might not be as sharp as he used to is worth it.

      followed by actual slavery using prisoners for labor

      The US already has that, they’ve always had that

      The 13th amendment which “abolished” slavery:

      Section 1. 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.

      All while everyone else in America starves because prices will continue to go up for everything while wages don’t. Then I imagine they’ll strip more workers rights away from us because they love doing that. Anything for companies to get a few extra dollars, even at the cost of our lives.

        Wages have been going up. Inflation has been going down. Food production is getting hammered by climate change. Joe Biden is pro union. The other guy is pro slavery and pro dictator.

          Inflation going down means prices are going up slower. No question about the rest of it.

    I used to work with the Zoley family who used to own GEO. They were insufferable evil scum. Totally miserable people inside and out. But god DAMN did they make a lot of money locking up human beings and lobbying for stiffer sentencing.

      I imagine they were the type that bought into the idea that if they make money, they are doing good by definition.

      Babe Ruth calling the shot over here

      The private prison behemoth GEO Group became the first corporation whose PAC maxed out to former President Donald Trump’s campaign in late February, according to a CREW analysis of campaign finance records. That same month, the company used a subsidiary to give an additional $500,000 to a pro-Trump super PAC.

    makes sense, considering they expect to be holding a lot more prisoners (=$$$) if trump wins.

    i hope everyone loves the fact that their tax dollars will go towards paying to imprison people because they’re not white/cismale/straight/christian/republican trump voters

    “it’ll never happen in this country!!!”

    they already killed abortion, regulation, and presidential accountability. keep saying it’s not already literally happening

    It’s just like going to the store 😁…who ever has the most money can buy the thing. Sometimes even if the thing already has a price on it!

    I wonder if Beyond our circle of influence 🤔 there’s a bunch of people who actually know the price to purchase the presidency or a position as a judge.
