    He’s not a nice man but ultimately he’s a small cog in the machine and he actually got some justice, I’m not wasting any more energy hating him. Having a prison system that is so shitty that people get stabbed is not cool

      I find it takes no energy to hate him, so I’ll continue doing so; but I agree that prison violence should not be glorified, under any circumstances, no matter who is the target. I don’t care about Chauvin’s wellbeing, but prison violence is yet another symptom of the same systemic issue that caused Chauvin to murder Floyd. ACAB, and so is the entire “justice” system.

    Not defending pieces of shit but celebrating prison torture is hardly a win when there’s many innocents in there but also prison isn’t supposed to be a torture chambre of hell where Satan is getting his willies slapping balls. That’s just rewarding other psychopaths for acting like psychopaths. “Oh you like raping? We have a place you’ll fit right in.”

    I’m pretty sure prison is not supposed to be celebration/bdsm for psychopaths. Really obvious miss of the point of the legal system and where it is unforgivably broken.
