An American ugliness
The US criminal system is a gulag of cruelty and poverty that crushes human beings
The sad truth about this new, crass and repressive face of the United States is that it’s not new at all. It’s always been there, like the dark side of the Moon, even if no one sees it. It’s difficult to see because our gaze is blinded by the glitter of wealth and power, fueled by the overwhelming propaganda that rains down on us incessantly, at any hour of the day or night, in movies, on television, on street billboards, in the millions of mirages of social media.
