Something I was thinking about while reading, especially about the US Gov taking down social movements, is do people think they are really cracking down on crime? Or do they know that a lot of policies hurt people and do not care? #so345
@Argyle_ This may be a biased opinion, but I think most of the time they just don’t care enough. I feel like a lot of the time the people in charge of controlling and taking down social movements are so focused on control and appealing to certain people that they don’t care who it affects or how in the process. We can see this in the drug war—politicians knew the reality of who they were harming, but changed the language around the movement to cover up what they were trying to do. #so345
