Privileged people generally experience the system as biased against and as singling them out for abuse, because they cannot imagine that’s just how the system treats people.
From what I understand from listening to @kenwhite.bsky.social Weinstein isn't getting any special treatment, and this is how it is for everyone at Rikers, but no, he thinks he's being picked on.
Lawyers say they suspect Harvey Weinstein has been deliberately mistreated in prison
According to Weinstein’s legal team, the disgraced movie producer has faced egregious conditions while jailed

all i'm saying is it would've been nice to have this healthcare policy discussion *before* we gave a trifecta to the party that tried to strip coverage from tens of millions of people last time they were in power

It’s disgusting
My thoughts on the insanity we’re witnessing: a shadow president, an unelected billionaire, working to dismantle our institutions with a fake, non-governmental agency, all while the media treats Musk's actions as if they’re perfectly normal.
Elon Musk: Shadow President of the United States (But Sure, Totally Normal, Right?)
In the wake of the 2024 election, two unelected billionaires, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, have plans to reshape the United States government.

TERRIFYING THOUGHT
Trump’s mass deportation plan—not only do we have to worry about ICE, CBP, and the National Guard with military support, but he could also use private contractors and vigilante groups to join in on the round-ups.
The potential for abuse of power is huge. 👀

Today, #KashPatel sent a letter to my counsel @markzaidesq.bsky.social threatening to sue & demanding I retract my MSNBC comments on his unfitness to serve as FBI Director. This follows his threats against media & political opponents, showing how he might act if confirmed. I stand by my statements.

Imagine him using the power of the largest law enforcement agency in the nation against someone who DOES NOT have the financial wherewithal to defend herself. That's what's coming down the pike, folks!

The day America decided to ignore Jared Kushner's $2 billion from the Saudis, and put an insurrection-inciting convicted felon back in the White House, is the day I stopped giving a shit about any "moral high ground."
I hope President Biden takes his "presidential immunity" out for a fucking spin.
