While reading Victor Lavalle's The Devil in Silver stumbled onto this article from 2002 about how an adult home was having surgeries done on residents many of whom didn't understand what was being done or why. The state department of health didn't know this was going on until NYT investigated. https://www.nytimes.com/2002/04/30/nyregion/voiceless-defenseless-and-a-source-of-cash.html

Hi, for whatever my two cents is worth, neo-Nazis fucking well should be cancelled, meaning there should be zero tv shows that air their phlegmatic regurgitations of the same beshitted tropes the Klan used to vomit out and nobody publishes those regurgitations and no social media platform that lets them post shit and they should be able to earn no money and should die of exposure in a fucking cardboard box, up to and including people who agree with those people and put them on garbage tv shows run by Glenn Beck, and also Glenn Beck. But that's me, I am super-outre cancel guy because I can't just learn to live with and respect the opinions of neo-Nazis.
Fathom Events is re-releasing some amazing classics this year including Labyrinth, The Never Ending Story, and Blazing Saddles. Already got my tix.
