We’re all okay with punching down on people with substance abuse issues and talking shit about incarcerated people now?
If you had written your title “my coworker applied to join the military because they raised the enlistment age and he wants to ‘fight Iran’” that woulda been fine.
Instead, you chose to include a bunch of stuff from his personal life and also call him an ex-con all in an attempt to make people see this person as more than just a dipshit, but subhuman, by virtue of his substance abuse issues.
Honestly I’m fucking disappointed in all of the commenters who probably talk a lot shit about class consciousness but can’t be bothered to call your ass out for using the tools and language of the state/oppressors to… make you look cool…? To a bunch of strangers on the internet?
Come on y’all we’re better than this.
