Prison might be the worst thing possible for meth fiends, but if they consistently act out and victimize others, how many felonies does it take for their suffering not being on meth in prison is less bad than the material and human loss they impose on society?

Drowning in (probably high purity) bleach sounds like a bad way to go.

Let's see how the alternatives to the carceral state are going in the Pacific Northwest:

https://kuow.org/stories/king-county-gave-millions-to-no-new-youth-jail-activists-to-help-kids-then-they-looked-away

Did someone help these dudes write a grant proposal? Maybe a few non felons should be involved in overseeing day to day operations, just a thought. Just an insane allergy to traditional structures and authority.

Edit: if being a felon is a prerequisite for outreach to at-risk youth and we apply that same logic to homelessness, the West Coast starts making more sense. Nothing could go wrong with awarding large contracts to groups of people with not-fully resolved mental health and/ or substance abuse issues.

Therapy is a scam and her anthropological proof is ideology-based bullshit, but at least it's a more interesting topic than whatever is going on in that other thread.

Heatmaps indicating highest moral allocation by ideology...The highest value on the heatmap scale is 20 units for liberals, and 12 units for conservatives. Moral circle rings, from inner to outer, are described as follows: (1) all of your immediate family, (2) all of your extended family, (3) all of your closest friends, (4) all of your friends (including distant ones), (5) all of your acquaintances, (6) all people you have ever met, (7) all people in your country, (8) all people on your continent, (9) all people on all continents, (10) all mammals, (11) all amphibians, reptiles, mammals, fish, and birds, (12) all animals on earth including paramecia and amoebae, (13) all animals in the universe, including alien lifeforms, (14) all living things in the universe including plants and trees, (15) all natural things in the universe including inert entities such as rocks, (16) all things in existence

reminder that the whole point of being a lib is to signal to other libs that you're a lib

tommy what if i told you i'm at the point of calling into question the entire Liberal - capital "L" - project, and regard both ends of what constitutes the modern political spectrum as more or less functionally equivalent?

the differences are in degree, not kind

I would probably stare blankly at you, unable to feign interest, and then turn to somebody else and start a different conversation.
