    What if we flood the jobs with good hearted people in maga hats

    They did this joke in “I’m a Virgo” already

    Studying to become an executioner because I oppose the death penalty

    I think what you’re missing in this ad is that you don’t ever get the resources to do things “correctly”. Alligator Alcatraz is a great example. The facility is falling apart mere days after construction. Plumbing doesn’t work. Electricity doesn’t work. The buildings are flooding. They don’t have enough food or facilities to prepare it. They don’t have working vehicles. All that $600M contractor money is just getting pocketed by people over your head.

    You’re being sent in there to work 12 hour+ shifts in rooms full of caged people who are often homeless, don’t speak English, malnourished, sick, and very angry about it.

    Like, the only remotely ethical thing you can do in that situation is to let them out. And even then, you’re letting them out into the middle of the Everglades.

      I’ve never seen ‘I’m a Virgo’ it is a very apt metaphor. This is what I wanted to know, thank you!
