In the wake of Charlie Kirk's death, a TN sheriff had a 61-yr-old man arrested for posting a meme on Facebook, which the sheriff absurdly construed as a threat. It was pretty clearly bullshit but I dug into the case using FB & public records and now it looks even worse. My latest @theintercept.com:
The Absurd Prosecution of a Man Who Posted a Charlie Kirk Meme
Larry Bushart Jr. posted trolling memes on a Facebook thread about a vigil for Kirk. He’s been in a Tennessee jail ever since.

still trying to fix the file details to get the artist info/track order right, but I got ahold of a few copies of this 2007 Rock Against Harper CD and uploaded them to archive.org :D

actually despise this kind of framing you hear from liberals or reformist abolitionists about "root causes" in the context of violence *by the state*—the system can choose to release ppl at any poit; the "root cause" of carceral violence is the carceral state

The fire that recently raged on Navajo Nation is a product of federal policy. About 7% of all tribal land in the US burned between 2010 and 2020. Tribal lands have more fires, but receive half the funding per acre to fight them compared to national forests.

Tribal wildfire programs are underfunded and overburdened.

A reminder that after years of speaking out against Epstein and giving other survivors the courage to come forward, Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre died by suicide in April at the age of 41.

Let's not forget that there are real human tragedies behind everything we're discussing.
Virginia Giuffre, one of Jeffrey Epstein's most prominent abuse survivors, dies by suicide
Other Epstein victims credited Giuffre with giving them the courage to speak out.

Studies shows on average that every 1 year incarcerated = 2 years taken off your life expectancy.

So many people suffer incarceration and at such length that it has lowered the overall average life expectancy of the country.

biggest zine-making pet peeve is when something is clearly not designed with one guy and their shitty home printer in mind, like covers or, worse, *inside text* that goes all the way to the edge of the page, or tons of images with dark colours that eat up all of your ink

I'll never forget that Linda Tirado lost an eye and is dying from TBI-induced dementia caused by a cop shooting her in the face by a rubber bullet at the George Floyd protests.
protect your eyes, protect your head. "less lethal" munitions are lethal when fired directly at a human being and cops love to use them this way. pepperballs will take your eye out, a tear gas canister can fracture your skull.
cops will kill you on purpose and by accident, all with impunity.

Too many people keep saying, “They're just trying to get a reaction out of us.” A fascist government is not your petty ex. They don't need a reaction out of you. They're carrying out their agenda whether you react or not. Talking about the administrators of a fascist state like this is so detached.

Like, what planet do you have to be on to think an openly white supremacist government is sitting around saying, “We need them to go protest so we can declare martial law.” PLEASE! They're going to do whatever they want, regardless. Everyone needs to understand how despots work.

It's never too late to start wearing a mask again! Wear them in public, in almost any context but especially when you're indoors, when 50%+ others present aren't masking, if you're in close physical proximity with others, and/or if there's scant ventilation (including lack of wind outdoors).
