PLEASE CHECK THIS OUT. Our own Aeronmelon is going through some shit at the moment and could use some help. Check it out here and consider an upvote or a comment to push it into activity. Sorry, not something I do often or will be spamming. But I care about my friend and if I can get a couple more eyes on his situation then I’m going to try to do what I can. (Last one I promise. Just twice. Not going to spam but dude is a big part of the Lemmy community, especially with Trek, and he deserves the help. And to the mods, if this doesn’t fit and you want to remove? Go for it. I completely understand it and I am sorry)

Edit: Oh wait I’m the mod here. Well, I say it is fine

    i just want to point out that permanent imprisonment also doesn’t have to be particularly bad for the imprisoned person, we could totally just “imprison” people in a quite nice 4-room apartment and let them live as normal lives as possible while keeping them separated from others.
    Let them get groceries delivered, have normal (if monitored) subscriptions and internet access, and go on walks with an actually friendly warden who just keeps an eye on them while actively trying to make the person feel normal.

    even nordic prisons which are famous for being not inhumane are still quite terrible places to be, largely because we can’t be arsed to spend more money than what we consider bare minimum to not qualify as torture.
