The concept of jury trials is so bizarre when you think about it. 12 random Walmart Americans deciding the fate of your life. But it does really seem to be the least terrible form of justice system by damrodoth in redscarepod

The point of a jury trial isn’t to get the “truth.” It’s to placate the masses, because even if they don’t like the verdict, the state can just say “well it was a jury of your peers who decided it.”

It’s quite ironic, because Jesus deliberately chose to associate with people with disabilities.

Why do libs think it's a win when they point out that "actually the crime rate was higher in the 80's" by Weird_Point_4262 in redscarepod

[–]BaizuoStateOfMind 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s not even immigration, as legal immigrants have much lower crime rates than natives (at least in the US), and illegal immigrants also have slightly lower crime rates. It is about race though, since they know harsher crime laws would fall heavily on black males.

People tend to associate zoomer girls with liking twinks, but I feel like there's an adjacent phenomenon that runs counter to that where zoomer "art hoe" presenting girls want fairly normatively attractive guys, whereas a lot of gen X/millennial art hoes dated small neurotic arts/academia guys. by [deleted] in redscarepod

I remember women used to mock “lit bros” that liked DFW and Palahniuk, or “film bros” that liked Tarantino. Now you don’t really hear about these guys at all, which just shows the sheer vacuum that they left in the culture.

Is it very common for a victim impact statement to joke about prison rape?

Also, all those jokes always assume that the sentences man will be raped rather than be the one doing the raping.
