WHO AM I?
Hi 👋 I’m Kathrin (she/her), I’m 28, an Anthropologist and Political Scientist. With my videos, I hope to inspire us to do both the internal and external work. Not only challenge 0ppressive broader external structures, but to also root out our that piece of the 0ppresser which is planted deep within each of us. Welding our outward political social rev0luti0ns, with this deep inner reflection and evolution of our consciousness.
💝If you don't have money but you do have some time, [CC] is a great way to get involved. Send me a message and I can add you as a ‘Subtitle Editor’ to make my videos accessible to more people: https://support.google.com/youtube/thread/159457949

Yeah. She goes into this a lot in the video and tbh I fluctuate a lot on how I'd handle the situation if truly given the power to decide the sentence of my abusers. It would really be context dependent for me. I don't want to do that now due to how awful the system treats victims. Currently I think vigilante justice to kill them is the only way to "resolve" this issue in our current society, but thats not to say something could be better.
With prison abolition, its not necessarily against 'separating someone from society'. Its more that prison itself is a threat for more violence to victims in many cases (for example, vigilante justice against your rapist will send you there to be further raped). If it were a fairly normal community, except it is separated from society, that is far more acceptable I think. Like right now, if you speed too much or steal or something you can get thrown in the same jail with a bunch of pedophiles. All that means is you are likely to become a victim yourself.
Yea, obviously vigilante justice comes with issues.
But that's... Imprisoning them? If we trap abusers in a place they can't leave, that's a prison.
Yes, and I don't want such people sent to prison. Or speeders, or drug "crimes" or probably other things. But I still think we need to remove people from others, and I suppose a prison is less severe then just killing 'em.
But you do need to make sure they can't leave, physically. How would that not be a prison? I mean we could improve on our current prisons a lot, and should. But when I start imagining how you would actually, physically keep potentially dangerous people away from society...
Also I just don't think child abusers deserve that.
Yeah, I guess thats true, but I feel like its a semantics thing and there needs to be a better word than 'reform' or 'prison abolition'. Restorative justice feels nice at least
