#jailers — Public Fediverse posts

@brandonhamber

Sadly I think you missed a step. "#Australia got away with it, so we will as well".

Australia had #Nauru with it's somewhat challenged population able to be guided into violence against our refugees. We had #Manus Island with its locals and police able to bring violence and death to #refugees. We had a #government insisting on referring to illegals.

Britain has #Rwanda as a direct result of what our tories did to refugees.

The British have a history of #invasion, theft, #murder and genocide or at least attempts at #genocide.

Apples never fall far from the trees which birth them.

Most Australian #prisons have a measurable percentage of #British #jailers.

Why?

A quotation from #Pratchett, Terry:

«««««
The suggestion that the world could be completely other than it is always annoys those who are content with the way things are. #Stories of #imagination tend to upset those without one. #Rulers are suspicious of new worlds where their writ does not run. #Jailers don’t like #escapism.
