ShurimalHigh-speed school-to-prison pipeline. Because inmates=free labour and prisons are for-profit. Gotta get 'em kidz institutionalized as early as possible!
It’s the conservative way. They hold these traditions sacred.
I suspect that being born from the wrong vagina is a crime for those people.
It just explains so many things: from their criminalization of abortion whikst taking State support away from poor single mothers to emprisioning kids who don’t have a mommy and daddy with the right connections or to pay for the kind of lawyer who would extract a massive compenstion from everybody involved in putting this kid in prisions.
Literally there’s an aspect of Evangelicalism and the “Prosperity Gospel” that portrays poor people as inherently sinful and evil, and it’s not just limited to those aspects of Christianity:
Then you read the Bible and like almost all the references to the rich are negative and like where the heck do people even get this crap from.

I’ve run audio for maybe a dozen Prosperity gospel events over the course of my career… Those people are some of the scummiest people I’ve ever met in rl. The “preachers” usually have a group of thugs acting as security that will run interference for anyone that questions what they’re preaching. I’ve seen people get literally dragged out and then heard, after the fact, that the “security” team “taught them a lesson”. The crowd was shocked that someone was aggressively dragged out at “church” until the preacher spun the victim as someone with the devil in them, then everyone would be nodding their heads with a panicked look like “are we ok with this?.. I guess…”. Fucking surreal. Also, these people would try to dodge as many bills as they could. On several of the ones I did, the “church” stiffed the AV company I was working for on a $30k+ production.
