"School to prison pipeline"? Is this person smoking meth?
Or are they just some stupid teenager that thinks "omg school is just like prison, I hate it here"? Which considering how hard they're going to bat for tiktok is highly likely.
Most nonviolent prisoners of any country to ever exist. Constitution says you can use prisoners as slaves.

It's about the low quality of education and poor job prospects. Poverty = crime
The school-to-prison pipeline is a real thing. The ACLU website has information on it
Okay, fair enough, but to insinuate this is a problem for all teens and not just certain minorities and low income students is a but dishonest. Also banning tiktok has nothing to do with this.
Yeah, like I said in another comment in this thread: Tik Tok is not a "third space" for teenagers. They're making money off of them, too, just indirectly.
And it's not just minorities. My friends and I were white as snow and still got the cops called on us just for hanging out at a pavilion in a park.
I love disillusioning naive Americans.
