"I am somehow less concerned with the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain, than the near certainty that men and women of equal talent have died toiling in cotton fields and sweatshops" (and prison labor)

That’s a name I’ve not not heard in a hot minute. I remember he was popular but fell into disfavor, but I can’t remember exactly when or why.

Police spending money on detectives, cybersecurity experts, tax analysts, wage theft investigations: ✋

Police spending money on weapons 👉

We need to get rid of the police and replace them with some sort of task force dedicated to solving crimes.

Man, if only there was something called police to do it...

Your 3rd world country (usa) just needs a stricter personal gun law and better/centralized training for cops.

Your cops are on edge every time cuz everybody could point a dangerstick in their face just for a routine traffic stop.

No guns for private persons = less police shootings

I'm not from the USA, dipshit. Police don't solve crimes here either.

The bloke I took it off of was in Discord. The original I stole had its watermark removed apparently. I reverse imaged searched the image and found the original artist and their tweet!

It is a trap. They want slavery back even if it's at the expense of a brighter future.

Well you can't give them fun weapons without targets to use them.

Reminds me of the situation in Germany at the moment. The federal constitutional court ruled 60 billion € Climate Credit for saving our future to be illegal. The Christian Party sued because of a dumb rule. But we just gave the military 100bn € out of the back pocket.

Pew pews equal big quick money for the government. With climate investments the returns would take up to 10 years... 5 years... Immediately after it's spent.

Ratm if anyone wonders.
