It's not about being tough on crime, because the absolute toughest most brutal measure you could take against "crime" as a social problem is to alleviate poverty, and increase access to education, healthcare and social mobility.

It's about performing "tough on crime" as an aesthetic by enacting violence against a prop, i.e. minorities and the impoverished, who are fetishized and objectified to represent "crime." They are brutalized as punishment for crime, but never with the purpose of alleviating the problem of crime.

Meanwhile, Maul's teeth are giving the impression he has a steady diet of salads and vegetables.

And isn’t that more poetic, in the context of Maul’s story? This man isn’t the predator. He’s a prey animal forced into violence in order to survive, and he’s intensely jealous of the predators whom he worships. They were made for this. He wants to be made for this too, but he is not. He hates them. Oh how Maul despises them. He will never truly be one of them.

Goodmorning to the Anthropic Claude AI training scraper that suddenly decided to request 660 thousand pages (exactly the number I had remaining on the starter plan) and brought Pikiwedia down. 

Sudden switch from diverse user agents like chrome, safari, messenger preview to Just Claudebot. I'm not even mad though, this is maybe the funniest thing possible, because I've inadvertently poisoned their training data with thousands of fucked up articles with normal urls.
