1. MAGA/Q movement

  2. Joe Rogan-esque reactionaries who have a softer stance on "hippie" things

  3. Younger people are forced to live with their parents longer because capitalism

  4. Prison system sucks and feeds people slop

Weird to see how all these things converge in a person.

    That's the thing though, right? I wonder if he'll realize that if they're feeding him things he doesn't want to eat, then maybe they're doing that to everyone else. And if it's so traumatizing to him to not eat organic, what about all those other people who subsist off chemical pemmican? This could be a moment for a broader consciousness but I wonder if he'll just dismiss it by thinking it's only happening to him because he's a Q guy.

        Everyone joins the AB or Peckerwoods when they go to certain places because that's how prisons works. Everyone joins their respective ethnic gangs for protection, even if you don't agree with them. That is unless you are put in special protection or whatever.

            To be fair, the Hispanics and Blacks outnumber the whites in many of the places, so it's not even that they are reinforcing white supremacy, white bois would get fucked up if they didn't have each others backs.

              I met an ex con who claimed to be in the AB. Said the almost all the guys in the AB in his prison weren’t actual white supremacists, most had non-white friends in the prison. But if you were a white dude it was what you did.

          This is a laughably simplistic view of prison that fits into the propaganda they show on those prison gang reality tv shows. Do you actually know anyone who's done time or are you just regurgitating FUD?

            when i was in prison i operated more as an unallied opportunist, forming alliances of convenience with the muslims and even Simon Adebisi once or twice. even the guards were afraid of him until like Season 4.

            My uni housemate did time for cyber crimes, was extradited to America and did time in an FCI in Petersburg.

              fair enough. most of my friends that did time in state and/or feds didn't have that experience, though one did (at one of the handful of prisons he wound up in) with the shameful odinist tats to prove it.

              any way you slice it, they're incredibly brutal and inhumane here whether the warden's acheived complete racial segregation or not

              makes stories like Jimmy Baca's that much more impressive

      experiencing injustice firsthand is not in itself enough to radicalize someone. most people don't come out of prison as prison abolitionists.
