#sometimes it's just like...
#kazakhstan just arrested zhanbolat mamai again
#he was supposed to get out of administrative detention and they extended his arrest as a pre-trial measure
#(at least two months extra as opposed to 5 or 10 days)
#and this is bad
#but who's gonna talk about it?
#rfe/rl ran an article talking about toqaev's stabs at reform
#how he's going to decrease presidential powers
#and the de-nazarbayevification of the country
#after the massive massive protests that no non-colleague i know knew about or really cared about
#and what's it all for?
#like people are talking about how things will get better when there's less of an autocrat
#but i've logged around a thousand legal sentences
#for offenses ranging from holding up a blank sign
#to liking a facebook page
#it's extremism or inciting ethnic hatred don't you know
#it's not the president that's the problem
#and zhanbolat mamai is in jail again
#and who am i to say any of this? i don't speak russian. i don't speak kazakh. my knowledge is limited. i'm a country away
#i can't change anything nor do i have the lived experience and knowledge to really weigh in
#about what's right or wrong for the country
#but still it sucks to watch stuff happen
#and yeah there seems to be a purge of nazarbayev's relatives
#but whether or not that's progress is yet to be seen...
#just read about dulat agadil escaping from prison in 2019 with a sinking feeling...he said he'd been unjustly arrested five times in a month
#and. i know he eventually died in custody.
#man can this all just...
#and melissa lucio's still on death row in my home state for a murder no one committed
#i guess at least feminata and kazfem were able to hold a women's day protest with others without repercussion (yet)
