I was in court today for a crime I didn't commit. The way the cops talked amongst themselves was so flippant and nonchalant. There's like this identifiable psychopathic linguistic pattern. It sounds very familiar and reminded me of situations where I've dealt with bad people who were actually criminals. Very antisocial and ego driven. They're mostly bullies who get off on using their legal authority to hurt people. Case got dismissed and I gave them the bird on the way out, it felt great.

Before it was a traffic infraction. At most you would pay a fine. Now it goes on your criminal record.

The law bans that too.

Well, the "free" state of Fl*rida just made it a misdemeanor to cover your license plate with materials that prevent those fucking Flock cameras from scanning it and putting you in a database so they can use the 'ole American warrantless data purchase loophole (a time-worn classic) to sell your location data to law enforcement and other third parties and upgrades the offense to a felony if used to commit another crime which in Florida could be just about anything. They (or any red state shithole) could literally make sneezing a misdemeanor and get away with it at this point while the MAGAts cheer because only the "bad people" sneeze, not them, never. So all the red state legislatures will probably collaborate to whip up some new bullshit laws at suspiciously the same time stating that if a person attempts to wipe their phone while being detained or gives a false self destruct duress pin to an officer it's now a class a/type 1/highest tier whatever felony with up to a bajillion years in prison. Then if the courts block it they'll appeal to a different, Trump appointed judge who will rule that a person "has no reasonable expectation of privacy during detainment by a public defender because they are now legally by definition in public" or some shit all in the name of freedumb of course.

It's really disheartening to hear people say that a political situation will take decades to fix. Usually that's being said about the supreme court. Rapid change can happen though, just look at Nepal. I don't want to accept that the majority of my lifetime will be defined by economic stagnation and political chaos/cruelty. Life is defined by impermanence. Something's gotta give.

Could this be the beginning of the great unfuckening of Florida?

THAT LOOKS LIKE A TIME CONSUMING PROCESS. YOU MUST BE VERY AMBITIOUS TO EAT ALL THAT HOG.
