I can't wait for the next one to five years until the hit, billion dollar grossing blockbuster film about these events comes out, Thoroughly dripping with obvious fascist themes and imagery, yet widely acclaimed by run of the mill Hamilton type liberals.

Here it fucking is. Time to get the fentanyl reagent tests out to maul people in possession of laced Heroin with terrorism charges.
That's such a great idea that I'm sure anyone who did this would end up charged with some type of fraud, unfortunately
Pay off my debt, buy a modest home, go back to school, never work a shit job for minimum wage ever again.
But I don't need anywhere near 20,000,000 dollars a year to do that.
After some large donations to communist organizations, I'd put the remaining few million per year into buying commercial slots on every major TV network in the US. Then I'd create Jury Nullification PSAs and blast them over the airways continuously until the message sinks in universally that juries are under no obligation at all to respect the laws currently grinding marginalized people into dust.
What are the implications of Lebanon, Afghanistan, and Syria declaring war? Would that result in the US sending in troops to defend Israel? And also what happens if Israel gets pressed? The fact that they have nuclear weapons makes that situation seem unprecedented and extremely dangerous.
How the fuck do people accept the kind of reasoning used against decriminalization?
We believe this drug is too dangerous for you to use safely, so to protect you from any adverse effects we're going to throw you into fucking prison and ruin your job prospects for the rest of your life if we catch you using it.
Like what the actual fuck? Of course, maintaining a pool of legal slaves is the entire goal, but it baffles me ordinary liberals continuously fall for it.
Earth is the most hospitable planet to human life in the entire universe, and we seemingly can't even put in the meager effort to keep it habitable. What makes you think we'll be any better at making Mars habitable? Not just keeping it habitable as we've failed to do on Earth, but making it habitable in the first place.
Are you familiar with the sheer scale of destruction and death the United States has wrought on the rest of the world in its imperialist adventures? Nothing anywhere else in the modern day even comes close.
Not defending cigarette companies, but it really actually does suck that meth is illegal in all 50 states. The United States has the world's largest prison population, it's the most authoritarian country on the planet, and that is heavily facilitated by throwing people into prison for using drugs.
Hexbear is literally the only place on the entirety of the internet where I can be vulnerable in my posts without worry it's going to be used in harassment against me by some reactionary freak.
r/chapotraphouse was one of the most accepting and inclusive subreddits of all time on reddit when it came to not punching down, and Hexbear is orders of magnitude better than even that.
It's amazing how quickly a doctor transforms into a fucking cop the exact moment discussion of painkillers comes up. That's the instant all pretense of treating/diagnosing your condition flies out the window. Instead they'll furiously conjure up bullshit excuses to invalidate your pain, call you a hypochondriac, or treat you like a lying drug addict. Or, as in this case, "protect" a hypothetical fetus.
Honest to god, it's in the court system's best interest to literally grovel at the feet of potential jury members and treat them like royalty. The fact that they don't even get so much as a non-insulting amount of monetary compensation for their time is really just cruelty for the sake of it.
Juries do not need to convict regardless of whether the evidence proves the defendant comitted the crime. It is fully their right to vote however they want for whatever reason they want. That is the right to jury nullification. The justice system prevents that from happening by thoroughly screening jurors. Under the threat of perjury, the courts check each prospective juror for not just intention of jury nullification, but even mere knowledge of its existence as a right.
The only thing preventing the knowledge and justification for jury nullification from spreading to most every potential juror like wildfire is the recognition of legitimacy and respect for the US government, its institutions, and its reactionary laws. If jurors view the court as evil and illegitimate, then they're sure as hell not going to sit back and send people to prison on the basis of laws widely despised by the majority of American citizens.
Policies like the criminalization of drug possession and charging anyone who has ever had so much as a miscarriage with murder are already massively unpopular. They could easily become de facto unenforceable because it takes only one juror to hang the verdict. Just 1/12th of all potential jurors would need to be willing to use jury nullification and accept a small risk of perjury charges in order to save an innocent person from life ruining charges.
