In the US, children (of any age) can be arrested and imprisoned without trial, and kept indefinitely. Children have been imprisoned for hitting a classmate, being too loud, and just existing as a black child.

Children still have no rights in juvenile detention, and the staff treats them however they please.

A child was arrested for pushing a classmate. After he was placed in a cell, he wouldn't leave, because he was in shock. The staff didn't like how slow he was being, and put him in solitary confinement on his very first morning there. He was in solitary confinement for over 4 months, and developed psychosis.

He still has psychosis as an adult, and treats it by self medicating, because our healthcare system doesn't provide him with treatment.

Similar things happen to many, many children.

I cant believe this tweet is how I find out

Edit: Now that we're talking about it, look. There is all the countries ratification dates, along with considerations for their laws.

And you can check the convention here.

Edit 2: For those in the US who want to check their state's laws compliance to the convention, there is this site.

Edit 3: The map source btw. Its from wikipedia.

Thank you people in the notes for the info and image desc.

Not "It's a product of it's time" as a way to excuse its problematic undertones but rather "it's a product of it's time" to say that the issues it tackles were relevant then and its stances that now seem milquetoast were radical then, and that heavy handed, cheesy driving home of those viewpoints was sometimes necessary, and our acceptance and normalization of those viewpoints is in large part because of media like it normalizing those viewpoints and imagery, and watching it in the modern day turns into a loving study of history of the masses and public opinion

Yes this is about the original star trek

being in my 20s and not radicalized (on tumblr) means that i'm afraid of most people my age, but can't really get close to people older than me because they bash on my age group all day

yeah, just keep generalizing about an entire group of people. i'm sure it's not hurtful and applies to everyone within that age group. alienating an entire group is also totally helpful for de-radicalizating them, i swear. (sarcasm)

#wow i wonder how gen z ended up like this...🤔#they *do* just exist in a bubble and turned violent all on their own from some kind of inherent evil in their soul or something (sarcasm)#they didn't learn any of this from older generations.. no waaaayyy (sarcasm)#there's no way they became easy to radicalize from lack of community and support.. i'm sure alienating them more will help. keep it up (sar #casm)#vent #if you treated your little siblings/nieces/nephews like shit.. don't be surprised when they end up having some massive issues as an adult #duh?#like it's not entirely millenials' or gen x's fault but GOD did they contribute #and then act all innocent when their kids or younger family members have massive issues as adults #in my experience.. people join cults to make up for a lack of support in their life #if older generations didn't support the younger generation they are partially at fault #also shut up about gen alpha most of them aren't even 10 yet #how low can you stoop?#hating children when the are *literally* still babies
