Ministry of Truth Just Kidding Update - 02 Apr 2024 - Strippers Bill of Rights

 

Strippers Bill of Rights

Strippers are workers and should be granted all the rights and protections of other workers, even if some of their activities have not yet been legalized.  These independent contractors in the adult entertainment industry, mostly at legal establishments, need to be protected against predatory club fees, unlocked dressing rooms, and sexual harassment.  Exotic private dancers shouldn't be forced into even riskier or more dire situations by marginalizing them or by criminalizing their hard work.

Ministry of Truth Daily Update - 26 Apr 2023 - Decriminalization

 

Decriminalization

Non-prosecution of minor crimes including retail theft, drug possession, turnstile jumping, trespassing, resisting arrest, prostitution, or interfering with arrests.  The goal is to make it safer for minorities, reserving incarceration for matters involving significant harm to the social order, thereby making citizens safer.  Ministry funded studies show that even short stays in jail can lead to loss of dignity, housing issues, employment disruption, and strained family connections.

Ministry of Truth Daily Update - 07 Apr 2023 - Decarceration

 

Decarceration

Policy of simply citing and/or releasing people from jail who have been accused of low-level misdemeanors or felonies.   Those granted some reasonable low level of bail (e.g. $50,000 or less), should be eligible for immediate release.  Depopulation of incarceration centers will solve the humanitarian crisis of locking up the accused.  The Ministry of Love wants to prioritize increased opportunities for pre-trial release, and to lower the jail population.  They remind the public of their focus on the safety of the accused, and that the root causes of crime will be addressed sometime in the future.  Examples of those who deserved release include: being accused of removing mattress tags, illegally carrying firearms, jay walking, domestic violence, possession of child pornography, residential burglary, robbery, or armed assault.
