    I don’t even think it’s a slave labor thing this seems like pure cruelty in response to the cop city protest bail funds

      True. I didn’t think of that at first. I was seeing those posts the last couple of days on accounting for all the convict labor in the American economy and connected it to this post right away.

      I just hope it doesn’t snowball into such a practice.

      Yeah the lesson here is bail funds are perceived as a threat by the bourgeoisie and they’re also pretty useful to have.

      If the bill passes the way to adapt would be to have volunteers personally pay the bail with the funds money.
