I think another framework is blank slatism.

For instance, you can look at two countries and if one country has a higher prison population, that country over polices because every country and its people should have the same criminality level because all cultures and people are identical.

I remember feeling great shame that the US had such a high imprisonment rate. This led to a big decrease in state prison population and things like cashless bail and letting people go to basically like the stats. We need to get back to basics and remove people that are destructive and stop overanalyzing things

So now you're asserting there is something uniquely, inherently bad about Americans that causes them to need to be locked in jail at 6 times the rate of every other country.

Do you know what that thing might be, and how to fix it?
