  1. Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

If I remember correctly they also don't get even a bedsheet. They just sleep directly on the metal.

I remember hearing about this prison awhile back and it genuinely sounds like hell. I have very little compassion for rapists and murderers, but even they don't deserve to live like that. I cannot imagine what it must do to your psyche.

If first you enter that prison, that is it. The president of that country is very adamant that no one is released, if I remember correctly.

Fucking terrifying to think someone who did nothing at all could end up in there, but there is probably more than one of those in there.

Edit, I found this video that touches on the issue. It is very interesting.

The thing is these aren't rapists and murderers. These people haven't been convicted of crimes. Even those not sent by the US. The Salvadoran dictator just decides that people are rapists and murderers and sends them there without trial.
