    Which part of it? I said a couple of things there. Surely you don’t disagree about the US constitution expressly permitting slavery and the US prison system largely being exactly that?

        Thirteenth amendment:

        Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

            To quote Run The Jewels:

            The Thirteenth Amendment says that slavery’s abolished (Shiiiit) Look at all these slave masters posin’ on yo’ dollar

      I hadn’t yet acknowledged the part about the prison system so take your guess. However I am aware that the US prison system sucks a pair of dicks.

        As someone with almost literally an actual bag of silicone dicks (seriously I just need to transfer them from individual bags into a larger communal bag), I’d say it’s quite a bit worse than that.
