Late Stage Capitalism

Unfortunately tweets like this do well with their target audience because they subscribe to the social darwinist view that some people (minorities, poors, etc.) are innately evil and more predisposed to being criminals and the only way to stop them is through a more oppressive state. During the last general election Tories were harping about putting more police on the streets for the same reason. As a capitalist state their concern isn't the cause of crimes because taking care of that would mean dispossessing the rich so they crack down on criminals instead.
