“I’m going to make it so people can go, if you’re convicted of a drug offense, or if you have a drug problem, you can go to one of these places for free.”

Honestly if people can find happiness by getting away from modern society and living a bucolic lifestyle, I’m all for it.

That has to be the most charitable interpretation possible of the incoming fascist government's intent. It's literally just slave labour with extra steps.

[-] RadicalEagle@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

If it’s voluntary it’s not slave labor.

If you actually believe what the worm brain is saying, I've got a bridge to sell you.

It could be exactly RFKs intention, but not that of project 2025.

The implication is they're farm labor camps, so less living with nature and more picking cotton in the sun all day.

[-] Fuck_u_spez_@sh.itjust.works 16 points 2 years ago

Yes but slaves who pick cotton learn valuable, marketable skills!

(big fuckin /s just in case)

Like the prison slaves who fight fires in California but are denied firefighting jobs once they are released?

I saw your sarcasm tag but I just couldn't help myself.

Jesus Christ, I had just repressed that memory

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Less picking cotton all day and more fruits and grapes. Or other crops that are still tended by hand, generally by undocumented immigrants.

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

This is to replace Migrant workers when they kick the Mexicans out.

Relying on a prescription medication is not a drug problem

Fascists don't use language to convey meaning or truth, they use it as a weapon to manipulate. It's on purpose that they muddy the meaning of words and won't define terms even in legal bills so their judges can use the worst interpretation of the broad, vague law like the anti lgbtq law in Russia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_anti-LGBT_law

It's the same way they try to count legal immigrants in the US under asylum as illegal criminals and won't define words like woke unless required by a court.
