The U.S. government has many political prisoners, including journalists; national security state whistleblowers; Black, Indigenous, and Latino revolutionaries; foreign diplomats; Muslims detained without trial; women who defended themselves from attacks; and environmental activists.
That’s probably the most instructive article i’ve read since the beginning of the year !
I couldn’t think of any more names to add, Steven Donziger isn’t a corporate political prisoner since April if i understood correctly, but if you don’t know his story it’s worth taking a look for 5mn.
And it happens almost every day, in total indifference.
If that list wasn’t enough, i’d also like to remind everyone that many more whistleblowers were persecuted without judiciary actions, because… what ? Because we have an image to maintain ? We’re here to be/do good, whistleblowers should be hailed as the heroes they are, (i’m thinking about a recent interview featuring Julia Cagé, and )we know what is good and wrong, we just pretend not to be able to improve things, f*cking hate this world sometimes, nothing will change, even when we have the solutions.
