Suffering is the point, isn't it. permalink fedilink source hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago* In 2017 they didn't evacuate their jails/prisons during a hurricane and the inmates were left standing in water up to their knees and obviously all the plumbing just backs up at that point. One would think this would never have happened after issues during Katrina in LA, but nope, after this incident Florida has left inmates locked up at least and not evacuated twice since that occurred in TX. Somehow these people sleep at night. permalink fedilink source parent
