The Department of Justice instructed prison auditors across the country to simply stop assessing whether facilities are violating laws designed to shield LGBT+ prisoners from sexual abuse
TheĀ U.S. Department of Justice will āimmediatelyā stop enforcingĀ a swathe of federal regulations protecting trans and intersex prisoners from rape and sexual assault, according to leaked documents.
In a memoĀ obtained by the non-profit news outletĀ Prism, DoJ official Tammie M. Gregg told prison auditors across the nation to āimmediately pauseā all ācompliance determinationsā for key safety rules concerning LGBTQI+ inmates, and advise prisons to ādisregardā them.
Those rules include requiring trans and intersex prisoners to be allowed separate showers, banning body searches purely for the purpose of finding out what genitals they have, and requiring prison staff to consider their safety when assigning them to male or female wings.
no real consideration? what do you meeeeeean american exceptionalism
You canāt say those words. Those are Tankie words
itās not tankie to have critiques of america
itās tankie to deny legitimate criticism of regimes whilst also leveling similar critique at simply āenemys ofā, or doing a what-about-ism in order to redirect discussion away from said criticism
All this time, I thought āTankiesā supported military intervention by Communist states.
Turns out any disagreement with a capitalist criticism qualifies.
No wonder there are so many Tankies in here.
