Trump Admin Ends Prison Rape Protections: 'Law and Order' for Some
The mainstream media reports this as a 'Trump DoJ' action, focusing on the past administration's disregard for vulnerable populations. What they often miss is the systemic nature of such policies, where dehumanization in isolated pockets often foreshadows broader erosions of rights. It's not just a 'Trump thing'; it's a symptom of a carceral system that thrives on making certain lives—especially
marginalized ones—expendable. One might wonder: how quickly do 'protections' vanish when the rhetoric shifts from 'tough on crime' to 'owning the libs'? The speed with which these policies were 'immediately' suspended suggests not a reasoned legal review, but a calculated political maneuver to appeal to a base that often sees compassion for others as a weakness. Some lives, it seems, are more
'disposable' than others.
