One thing that irritates me a little bit is how people talk about crime and crime stats. They individualize it and talk about ethnicity or morals and then use crime stats to paint a picture of innate criminality. Whereas the real picture is completely the opposite where crime actually follows a power law distribution. A small amount of people organise and create criminal networks, (often based on kinship ties) and ruin society for everyone else. All the police have to do is just jail these career criminals for a very long time to solve the issue. But they refuse to do this and instead violate the common man's liberty to privacy via mass surveillance.

I mentioned crime stats as a narrative violation, to the contrary it shows the typical scapegoat as victims. but incarceration is a modern institution that is resource-intensive itself, much like modern law enforcement has entrenched itself with roughshod policy like RICO to counter kinship ties. all things considered, justice seems to be a feud-busting complex, and we remain fallible humans altogether. the only reasonable outcome is the OP of apolitical abundance and sprawl. otherwise this is talking past the underlying issue of crab bucket mentality with rational scarcity mindset.
