I worry that a per-capita analysis might obscure the fact that more detentions are tied to the conditions that lead to death—it’s not just a function of more people being detained & therefore more ppl (but the same percentage of ppl) are dying; overcrowding leads to unique harms.

Even folks who voted are apparently responsible for Trump! No missteps by the party that failed to capture/reflect their constituents—whose votes they must earn & which they are not entitled to.

I’m sorry—casting my ballot wasn’t voting? Is there an alternative version of voting I’m unaware of? Will ignore the nastiness of this comment to say that we all should have a moral compass not narrowly defined by electoral politics.

I voted but remain horrified by anyone who dismisses concerns about genocide as a “purity test.” I’m angry that this election forced us to choose between 2 versions of a genocide—& that the party of so-called decency has encouraged us to pare down our moral compass so we sneer at those who care.
