Comparing it to the statue of liberty is peak something.

Someone fly a fucking plane into it before it gets populated please.

Lmao these are the people shedding crocodile tears over the gulags and here they are casually fantasizing about a gulag the Soviet Union could never come up with

and in wicked North Korea they jail so many people they need to build skyscraper prisons to house them all.

When I said "I would KILL for a cheap place to live downtown," I didn't mean it literally

Biden's legacy is just going to be the 1994 crime bill, mega prisons and sundowning isn't it?

Hope it gets 9/11'd the day before it's open to prisoners

Iirc, the location is a massive fuck you to china town.

They hate us because of our freedom.

Is all the world jails and churches?

They're building a 100 meter jail because they claim to want to close rikers island, but will do nothing to improve peoples conditions in or outside of jail

didn't they make a movie about this?

Such a historic building needs a good name, something that really reflects this advancement in the infrastructure to rehabilitate people who've taken a dark turn in life, giving them a second chance with new opportunities and above all else a new hope.

But what's another word for hope? "Prospect"? And "nova" is Latin for "new".
