As Donald Trump prepares to make good on his promise to deport possibly millions of undocumented immigrants, the private prison industry appears poised to cash in.

    On Reddit, there was a post that outlined why this rando voted for Trump that had thousands of upvotes.

    The major complaint was the constant noise about things like BLM, DEI, LGBTQ, defund the police and hating private prisons.

    I can understand if this racist hates the first half. And I can understand if they also love sucking off cops.

    But why the fuck would anybody support a private prison? Literally a company that makes money off of people being punished?

      Because they’re certain that the people getting punished are heretics to their reactionary ideology.

      They see it as inferior people getting what they deserve, and since it’s privatized they imagine they’ll pay less for the privilege.
