A New York City landlord named the worst in the city by the Public Advocate’s office is at Rikers after allegedly failing to perform hundreds of court-ordered repairs on some Manhattan properties he owns.
The guy is certainly a piece of shit but I’ll still come out against prison violence.
Except one case where two local formed political figures in county jail got into a slap fight about local government. That’s pure comedy. Nobody was seriously hurt.
I oppose all violence, but I’m also aware enough of historical loops to know that capital owners in the past have only yielded to violence. Given the repeating patterns of history, it seems that the capital owners are choosing violence and not the other way around.
They could yield, stop lobbying and killing the middle class, but more likely they’ll fight to the death. So I expect the public will eventually give them what they seem to be asking for.
You can only pressurize a population so much before it explodes.
I’m all for changing the class dynamic, and that will come with massive upheaval for the capital class.
I don’t believe in extra judicial violence, and I don’t believe in normalizing prison violence, even for the worst of the worst.
If society has already deemed prison is the right place for someone, that’s that. Theres no halfsie wink wink bullshit about “don’t drop the soap” or whatever. Even for child molesters, murders, whoever.
Hell I’d even prefer execution or corporal punishment over “hehe try not to get shanked”. Obviously i am only referring to the limited choice window of “prison violence or mandated violence” as the only possible options. In reality I think incarceration+ reform is the only just punishment.
Meh. People love to decry prison violence until their chosen guy gets it.
Stay consistent.
Downvotes from children. Nobody brave enough to argue for prison violence?
Edit edit I am astonished with how quickly Lemmy supports prison violence. Very telling of who actually hangs here.

Totally agree with your first sentence
