I pointed out a systematic racist outcome in NYC that has one root cause in the performative bullshit culture.
And my comment got deleted by the mods, because it did not conform to the performative bullshit.

Performative bullshit meets ballot. What do we get? Performative bullshit ballot measures.
It's time we start focusing on the fundamentals.
The color of our firefighters or MTA personnel should not take the front seat over service reliability and trustworthiness.

I'll these cases happened towards the end of De Blasio's administration, who has at best perpetuated and at worst made the jail situations worse. As I've learned from previous threads, it's pointless to argue with someone who believes De Blasio is a progressive hero of any kind.

We can agree to disagree again.

There’s nothing progressive about this.
Demanding that the NYPD should be making determinations about someone’s bail status or ignoring court orders?
It’s totally backwards.
Edit: to state the obvious, there are clearly broken things that need to be fixed in how those cases are handled.

That's gotta win the award for scaremongering quote.
The silver lining is that those individuals who once avoided the courts to evade justice, are now very willing to see a judge ASAP.

He got out of jail using the correct judicial mechanism: get a judge to issue an order to release him.
But they took more than two weeks to even ask a judge for that, and now they are suing for the "trauma" that extended time has caused.

Not a question.
Just tell her I’m not voting for her because she has failed to take the rising crimes with the seriousness it deserves.
