Bill Cosby is a big old rapist (on the loose)
dr lopez replied to Rubin Farr's topic in General Banter
I didn't say he shouldn't be prosecuted or charged, I'm saying the 10 or so years he got as an 80 year old was essentially a cruel death sentence, based on our completely outdated and problematic understanding of prison as "punishment" and "revenge" for crimes committed decades ago, rather than the plethora of other options for punitive house arrest, criminal rehabilitation, counseling, etc. The crime and the person is largely irrelevant. I agree his alleged crimes are disgusting and horrific. I just do not enjoy the discourse from relatively progressive camps who generally argue for lighter prison sentences, and a defunding of our disastrous incarceration industry (which I agree with) then suddenly ignoring their own narratives and foaming at the mouth about an 83 yr old half blind guy getting released from prison. Honestly what danger does this man pose? None... so then it's *just* about some sort of confused punitive equivocation?- 798 replies

Bill Cosby is a big old rapist (on the loose)
dr lopez replied to Rubin Farr's topic in General Banter
Cosby was jailed simply for vengeance/punishment. I cannot be convinced that he was criminal threat at his age and physical state, people just wanted him locked up as "payback" for things he did years ago, which of course goes against the current prevailing lib narrative of the injustices of our penal system, how it *shouldn't* treat prison as punishment, but rather as rehabilitation etc etc. I understand he refused any counseling but that was *after* he was going to prison for the rest of his life. What about a deal where he was under house arrest and given sexual predator counseling or whatever. He might have been more accepting.- 798 replies

it certainly did not get the right amount of press and lily alluded to that. not sure GWC and rephlex new how to market it to millennial hipsters but it certainly feels like a "before its time" release, even though it's a "throwback" album so to speak. Chatroom, Rare, Shoved and Bahrain are all DAMN SON WHERE'D YA FIND THIS

John Muir is kinda sus tbh lol. Enforcer of the “wilderness” narrative when the reality of indigenous people living on and with the land for millennia is a more wholistic nuanced approach

no, saying I didn't enjoy the superficial and bland rap lyrics about stopping police violence in the context of this music doesn't mean i "don't give a shit about systemic racism." it was a critique of the music, not outside cultural movements that the music was referencing. that should be obvious.
