i guess what surprised me was not that he understands it but the fact that he admitted it publicly - people will hate me after i’m gone

that’s actually unexpected awareness of reality

After reading this article I looked up what arbitration is in the US judiciary system and as a guy not from the USA I was quite surprised that a clause in a contract/agreement can basically strip you from your basic right to defend your rights in court. I wouldn’t want to criticize an institute of another country, but let’s say that was unexpected.

unfortunately, it always needs clarification
i also used to think /s is unnecessary and kinda ruins the joke, but after some time i realized one can’t expect everyone on the internet to live in the same context as they do, so sarcasm without /s will inevitably be missed

he was tortured and his case was fabricated, so no, he’s not lucky
also he’s now serving his second sentence which is for “justification of terrorism”
they arrested him just as he was leaving the prison after the first one
