Speaking of gerrymandering, have you heard of prison gerrymandering?
White Republicans use incarcerated people to be counted by the census as residents of the town the PRISON is located in rather than their home communities. This increases their political representation and FUNDING for those districts while incarcerated people themselves cannot vote.
What you allow to happen to incarcerated people will happen to you.

Hot take: Incarcerated people should have the right to vote.

It might not look like much, but one single acorn grows into a tree that supports thousands of species for centuries.
A mature oak is one of nature’s greatest biodiversity hot spots. A single tree can provide food and shelter for more than 2,300 different species.
Hundreds of caterpillars that feed baby birds, plus moths, beetles, fungi, lichens, squirrels, and many more all call it home.
One oak can live 200–400 years (some over 600), working as a keystone species the entire time.
Planting or protecting even one oak is one of the highest-impact things you can do for local wildlife.
It’s a living legacy that keeps giving long after we’re gone.
One acorn really can make a massive difference.

There’s goes your right to privacy. And Democrats voted for it too. Both parties support surveillance!

The House passed FISA Section 702 renewal yesterday. I voted NO. This was a Uni-Party vote in favor of unchecked government surveillance without adequate warrants or accountability.

There is a name for boarding a ship and abducting innocent civilians in international waters, @BBCWorld. Its not called 'interception'. The word is piracy.

as someone that's had to make similar lists, it is *not* easy at all.

but wheeeeeeeew buddy do i have some disagreements in here lol

Israel has no right to “detain” civilians in international waters. The word you’re looking for is kidnaps.
