I think a point missing from the “just move!” discourse about states enacting cruel laws is that a lot of us truly love where we live. we wish it was different, we wish our legislators didn’t weaponize their hatred of us, but we have community we love here, and we want better.

The OK County Jail is exceptionally cruel and deadly. but so is the concept of jail itself, and so is the idea that a person may die just because they couldn’t pay their way out of pre-trial incarceration. this system has been broken and inhumane from the very start.
