In a sweeping two-year investigation, The Associated Press found goods linked to prisoners wind up in the supply chains of everything from Frosted Flakes cereal and Ball Park hot dogs to Gold Medal flour and Coca-Cola. They are on the shelves of most supermarkets, including Kroger, Target and Whole Foods. They’re also exported. The prisoners who help produce these goods are disproportionately people of color. Some are sentenced to hard labor and forced to work – or face punishment – and are sometimes paid pennies an hour or nothing at all. They also are excluded from protections guaranteed to almost all other full-time workers, even when they are seriously injured or killed on the job. And it can be almost impossible for them to sue.

I do not abide. I dissent, often & loudly. I kneel for spiritual prayers & when honouring my ancestors, not dipshit, inhumane billionaires or government sellouts or their weak minions.
I will accept any personal consequences for refusing to hold up/protect shitass status quo.
I am personally committed to building up alternative community assistance networks. For the peoples. By the peoples.

A New Mexico jury ruled Tuesday that Meta enabled child exploitation on its platforms and misled users about the platforms’ impact on children’s mental health—a landmark decision that could set precedent as Meta battles similar allegations at the federal level.

I thought it was bad enough when FOR LEASE signs started popping up in storefronts all over town.
But lately some have turned into FOR SALE signs. 😬
