This has been making the rounds on line, but it turns out that this business merely grows cannabis at a former prison that’s been repurposed; it’s not being grown by the inmates.
Are people really thinking the government would spend money to grow weed to get people out of prison?
Seems obvious that it’s not actually inmates.
Of course they would be spending money. That would be ridiculous. They would me MAKING money of course
Government? No. But I could definitely see private prison corporations making money selling prison slave labor weed.
Private prisons still operate under government oversite and with government founding….
And maybe having private prisons is its own issue entirely…?
That logic still makes no sense and is flawed at its basic starting point. A prison isn’t gonna raise money to get its inmates removed lmfao, they wouldn’t need money, they would just you know… let them out… fuck people are stupid and can’t think for more than 2 seconds.
They lease inmates to Wendy’s so I wouldn’t be surprised
So they’re gonna raise money to release their money makers? Thats the hitch in the thought process here.
no, i thought a pot company was leasing prisoners for a grow op and giving a portion of profits back
You seriously thought a prison would lease its inmates to a company trying to release said inmates…?
That still doesn’t fit with the “in a prison” either.
Critical thinking is seriously lacking in this world.
I don’t think people think the government is spending money to grow weed to get people out of prison, I think people thought people were paying inmates on work release or whatever to grow weed to get people out of prison.
… so they are using their money makers to get their money makers out of prison…?
Still makes no sense that way, it’s obvious inmates have nothing to do with it.
And what part of “at a prison” means work release anyways?
Just explaining what I thought people thought, no need to get defensive.
And none of those people stopped to think for more than 2 seconds. That’s not even a valid line of reasoning.
A prison isn’t going to lease their inmates to a company that wants to get inmates released.
And none of that implies anything about it being “in a prison”
Critical thinking is a seriously lacking trait in today’s age….
Empathy is also seriously lacking. Like belittling people so much over something so minor. Relax. It’s not that big of a deal.
Should probably check this out before making assumptions.
#Prison Labor Is Not Actually Used
This may be one of those memetic SCPs, because my brain feels really funny after reading that. And not in a good way…
I hate this with every fibre of my being.
Yes, I subscribed, obviously.
Thank you! I physically recoiled from the first post I saw!
Slavery 2
And they said we couldn’t run a nation solely using the power of massive amounts of cognitive dissonance…
The slavery helps, too
It’s not slave labor, it’s forced labor, which is totally not just an euphemism for slavery!
It’s not prisoners’ labor, just farmed in an old prison
I was more referring to the nation as a whole, but that’s reassuring to hear!
I hope this only has ~2% THC
I do not know the legitimacy of the LPP organization, but do people not see through the ironic statement at all?
This isn’t even late stage capitalism this is just too far gone capitalism
