Saw Centaurworld few days ago and fell in love with the character of Splendid (or Splendib still donβt know their name ) also the music of the show is amazing and wanted to do a quick doodle β¨π₯Ί
Never forget that the War on Drugs was fabricated to criminalize certain communities.Β
The quickest descent into fascism occurs when the criminalization of innocent, nonviolent activities is combined with a surveillance state to βclean up crimeβ.
Itβs also very important to look at how these laws are used.Β
For the laws criminalizing pot, white people (usually youth) often get off with a slap on the wrist, but BIPOC get harsh sentences, including prison time. Same goes for traffic offences (including DUI). Also laws for loitering, gangs and so on are used much more often against BIPOC - people are being denied their freedom of movement or just being allowed to be out in public without being afraid of being arrested.Β Β
