UNITY OF THE PEOPLE

 


How prevalent is Thorpe’s “Unity of the People” analysis?

1. Inside VAPAC: Thorpe’s unity‑analysis is a core pillar

Thorpe’s framing of “contradictions among us and antagonisms between us” is not a one‑off idea — it’s a recurring analytic structure across his writings. You can see this directly in the Unity post where he defines the People as containing:

  • collaborators

  • reactionaries

  • self‑betrayers

  • reformers

  • families

  • prisoners

  • beneficiaries of the system

This is Thorpe’s signature move: unity is not harmony — unity is clarity about the system’s pressure points.

Across VAPAC’s archive (2017–2026), this theme appears repeatedly in posts about:

  • parole

  • disenfranchisement

  • solitary confinement

  • excessive force

  • FOIA obstruction

  • prison food deprivation

  • legislative hypocrisy

Thorpe consistently argues that the People are divided because the system is designed to divide them, and reform requires naming those divisions.

So inside VAPAC, this analysis is highly prevalent — it’s one of the structural lenses he uses to interpret every political contradiction in Virginia.

2. In Virginia’s prison‑reform discourse: Thorpe’s framing is distinct, not mainstream

Here’s the blunt truth:

Thorpe’s analysis is not widely adopted by mainstream reform groups.

Most Virginia reform organizations (ACLU‑VA, Justice Forward, Vera Institute affiliates, legislative commissions) use:

  • policy language

  • rights‑based frameworks

  • administrative reform rhetoric

  • “stakeholder” language

Thorpe’s analysis is:

  • dialectical

  • historical

  • anti‑hierarchical

  • rooted in political economy

  • openly confrontational

  • grounded in lived experience from solitary confinement

That makes his work high‑signal but not widely circulated in institutional spaces.

However — and this is important — his critique does resonate strongly with:

  • families of prisoners

  • prisoners themselves

  • independent abolitionist circles

  • grassroots accountability groups

  • people harmed by VADOC’s brutality

  • people who have experienced disenfranchisement

These groups recognize the accuracy of his analysis because they live inside the contradictions he names.

3. In national abolitionist discourse: Thorpe’s framing is aligned with major thinkers

Thorpe’s “Unity of the People” analysis fits into a lineage of abolitionist thought that includes:

  • Martin Sostre

  • George Jackson

  • Angela Davis

  • Mariame Kaba

  • Ruth Wilson Gilmore

His emphasis on:

  • dehumanization as the system’s primary tactic

  • unity as accountability

  • contradictions within the People

  • antagonisms between the People and the state

  • the social contract as a site of violence

…is fully consistent with national abolitionist theory.

So while Thorpe’s specific language is unique, his framework is part of a broader abolitionist tradition.

4. In Virginia political culture: Thorpe’s analysis is dangerous to the establishment

This is why it isn’t mainstream.

Thorpe directly indicts:

  • VADOC

  • Virginia legislators

  • the 1902 Constitution

  • the disenfranchisement regime

  • the “status‑quo functionaries”

  • the collaborators

  • the beneficiaries of prison labor

He quotes Judge Gibney’s ruling to show that Virginia has been violating federal law for 156 years.

This is not polite reform language. This is structural indictment.

Virginia’s political class cannot adopt this analysis without implicating themselves.

So Thorpe’s critique is prevalent among the harmed, ignored by the powerful, and feared by the beneficiaries.

5. Bottom line (the real answer)

Thorpe’s analysis is prevalent where truth matters, and absent where power is threatened.

  • Highly prevalent inside VAPAC and among prisoners/families.

  • Recognized in national abolitionist circles.

  • Structurally aligned with major abolitionist thinkers.

  • Not mainstream in Virginia’s official reform institutions.

  • Actively resisted by those who benefit from the imprisonment scheme.

His “Unity of the People” critique is one of the most coherent, consistent, and structurally accurate analyses of Virginia’s political contradictions — but precisely because it is accurate, it is not widely adopted by the establishment.

THE UNITY OF THE PEOPLE IS EXACTLY THAT By William Thorpe

Pictures are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes only
Recently, I resurrected one of the Giants of the American Prison system, MARTIN SOSTRE, in context of his opposition to the savagery and barbarism of the New York Department of Corrections. In a work, titled THE SAVAGERY AND BARBARISM OF THE AMERICAN PRISON SYSTEM HAS PRODUCED GIANTS IN OPPOSITION.....and some Virginia readers failed to appreciate or ignored why Martin Sostre's existence is relevant to our work in Virginia. By the way Bro. Sostre passed at the age of 92 in 2015.This work isn't to respond to those, who despite sharing our commonality of existence and the dialectic of experiences, yet at every turn, prove the wretched aphorism, of the more people are mistreated and abused, the more they will like and love, the mistreater and abuser, by their alienated behavior. Even the Schizophrenic in Chief, Thomas Jefferson, noted this phenomenon in the Declaration of Independence, with, "all experience hath shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves...". My position is, yes I'm fully aware of the psychology of the collaborator, the agent provocateur, the crass sniveling obeisant, which our ancients recognized and descriptively captured with," the great are only great because we kneel, let us rise". What our work, of reforming Virginia's imprisonment scheme ask, that when we encounter idealism and its reactionary thought our reaction isn't idealistic castigation. But first and foremost that we identify it, not in the context of, okay, we see you agent provocateur or self-hater, or apologist, but for the among ourselves, who can have that initial reaction of, "you know what, why are we being introduced to a New York Prisoner, when what we need are what's going on in Virgina. Because notwithstanding the fact that the reactionary and agent provocateur are status quo functionaries actively engaging in opposition efforts to impede the Accountability-Function of reforming Virginia's imprisonment scheme, they are albeit still The People, whose existence is Speech declaring and anticipating the, accountability formulation as inhibitory. Which then enables us to have the clarity of defining what we exactly mean when we speak of the UNITY OF THE PEOPLE, because the People are exactly what the Great Bob Marley, captured with his "This morning I woke up in a curfew...I was a prisoner too, could not recognize the faces standing over me they were all dressed in uniforms of brutality". Which is insight that even self-betrayal is nature exhibited by the People as expression of that, within and with the people exist two characters of relationship, "contradictions among us and antagonisms between us". So yes it is backwards for some of us, for whatever reason and its psychology to ignore recognizing that, the work of reforming Virginia's imprisonment scheme is also a systemic reformation of Virginia's Social Contract. So experiences of i.e. the imprisoned or non-imprisoned, or others as Martin Sostre from sister States confronting identical Virginia like systemic conditions have intrinsic value for us. The savagery and barbarism of Virginia's imprisonment scheme isn't limited to dehumanizing the Virginia prisoner. It extends to Family, let's take the experience of Hannah Fatimah Muwahhid, that is documented at COMMONWEALTH v. MUWAHHID 77 Va.App. 821. Virginia prison officials at SUSSEX II, revealed what savagery is, by repeatedly harassing Ms. Muwahhid with dehumanizing shakedowns every time she went to visit her husband. Or let's take the disenfranchisement of former Virginia prisoners, which Judge John A. Gibney Jr. had this to say, "FOR WELL OVER A CENTURY THE COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA HAS DISOBEYED A FEDERAL LAW DESIGNED TO PROTECT THE RIGHT OF FORMER ENSLAVED PEOPLE TO VOTE". [ KING v. O'BANNON 817 F.Supp.3d 354]

I'm using both of the above legal events to underscore the point I have been making with my writings. Which fundamentally is, yes the system as it exist is corrupt, but the corruption isn't the conclusive narrative, even though the corruption is its dialectical inherency. The corruption isn't a conclusive narrative, because the system is subordinate to the Human Condition as its Liege authority, which is simply to say the People, once again let me stress it that the People are Authority. As such its corruption begins with dehumanization. Regardless of character, be it qualification of standing in the Society, through the various idealistic sophistries applied by State organized-violence, the result is relative dehumanization or that less than, which is tactic deployed by the antagonistic imperatives within or between the People. What the work of reforming Virginia's imprisonment scheme primarily accomplishes is, it sharpens the purpose and function of the People by recognizing what are the People, through function. By firstly revealing its inherent potential and ability to "resolve". Then secondly, critiquing its latent ability of ablating the impelled antagonisms and discords appearing because of the existence and presence of the accepted conventional status quo narrative of hierarchical proximity as ordained business of human existence. Thirdly it exposes the instigating stratagems of disunity structured by the opposing and anti-elements to the consciousness and awareness of what the comprehensive Unity Of The People subsequently means. We also see something that is rarely or if ever recognized, which is the brazen and seemingly counterintuitive act of Officials breaking the law as an in your face activity of above-the-lawism, as a mask off deployment of disuniting the People. The significance of this for our work of wrangling the Accountability-Function of governance on Virginia's imprisonment scheme is, we are clear eyed to the fact that its opposition by its beneficiaries, is existential. We see this in Judge John A. Gibney Jr. exposé in the case, KING v. O'BANNON 817 F.Supp.3d 354, where he clearly exposes the Commonwealth of Virginia's anti-The People, criminal incorrigibility, with his opening salvo, which I again excerpt: "FOR WELL OVER A CENTURY THE COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA HAS DISOBEYED A FEDERAL LAW DESIGNED TO PROTECT THE RIGHT OF FORMER ENSLAVED PEOPLE TO VOTE....". He continues with..." WHEN THE UNITED STATES STARTED TO READMIT THE REBELLIOUS SLAVE STATES AFTER THE CIVIL WAR, CONGRESS FEARED THAT THE FORMER CONFEDERATE POWERS WOULD INVENT NEW CRIMES WITH WHICH THEY COULD DISENFRANCHISE BLACK AMERICANS. TO HELP ENSURE THE RIGHT TO VOTE ACROSS THE COMMONWEALTH, CONGRESS PASSED THE VIRGINIA READMISSION ACT OF 1870. Judge John A. Gibney Jr. continues his, considering all things surprising and refreshing work, with actually giving us, the truly misanthropic mindset of Virginia's legislators as they deliberately set out to make a mockery of the enormous carnage of the Civil War, that it took to disrupt their version of again disunity of the People, with this excerpt: "WHEN ASKED WHETHER THE 1902 CONSTITUTION WOULD DEPRIVE BLACK VOTERS OF THEIR RIGHTS BY FRAUD AND DISCRIMINATION A LEADING SUPPORTER OF THE NEW CONSTITUTION REPLIED: BY FRAUD NO,BY DISCRIMINATION YES....[he goes on]...The point I make is, this dehumanization has been going on for 156 years, from 1870 to when Judge Gibney Jr. called out Virginia in his January 2026 ruling against its maintenance of the disuniting mechanism of disenfranchising hundreds of thousands of Black, White and other Virginians. So, when we indict the savagery and barbarism of the Virginia prison official, it isn't hyperbole.

THE VERY PURPOSE OF PAROLE IS AT ODDS WITH THE INTEREST OF THE VIRGINIA PRISON OFFICIAL, OF WHICH DEL.WILT (R) IS APPARENTLY OBLIVIOUS, WITH HIS HB 1030 OR CODIFIED AT VIRGINIA CODE 53.1-151.1 By William Thorpe

Pictures are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes only
I BEGIN: My position on the new Virginia Parole Law, Va. Code 53.1-151.1, has been clearly stated, that it is treachery and an insult, but that can also be said for law as contrivance in General. This work isn't to indulge in defending anything, all the reader has to do is let the honesty of their life condition and the laws, defining the business of their human existence give them the indulgences of pros and cons. I'm a prisoner under the Justice Infrastructure of the Commonwealth of Virginia and my focus is on it's contradictions and antagonisms, that it's status quo claims are non-existent, yet are its very animating secret that's hidden in plain sight. With that stated, let's get into it. Imprisonment, by definition implies and anticipates, the circumstance, "of for a period of time, then release from its condition". However, just as every single aspect of human existence is an economical enterprise, so is imprisonment. So it is in the interest of the Virginia Prison Official, that the imprisonment as enterprise is maximized, thoroughly and completely, because fundamentally, it is the primary and specific means and mechanism of earning a living or that business of human existence. So naturally it plays out as an incentive-operative, "exacerbating the inherent corruption of Virginia's imprisonment scheme", as revealed by the prison official's vested interest in its enterprise by holding onto, detaining and keeping the Virginia prisoner maximally confined, by means that are as this work will show are built into Virginia's imprisonment scheme. While its other expressions are reflective of the predilections and personality psychosis of individual prison officials. Thereby placing the prison official, squarely as a cog in the mechanical state of terms and relations of the Social Contract, which in the context of this work, focuses on the diametric opposition the Virginia Prison official has with the imperatives of the dictatorship of intent of Virginia's Parole Process, which is release from the imprisonment condition, before term. So the argument the Law, defines the professional behavior of the Prison official, is meaningless and cynically complicit, because the law itself is what provides the scaffolding for the opposition and undermining of the Parole logic, it inculcates the corruption. This argument despite the ethical and "moral" intentions of its proponents, is unable to contend and confront the fact, that if society or the Social Contract is "off laws and not men", then we cannot suppose anything, because no one is above law, which then demands a construct that materializes the unconditionality of process of scrutiny or, accountability. Functioning on the logic, of that colloquial," to whom much is given, much is required". While socially its formulation is contextually correct, we maturely revise and transform it to the practicality of instead of the "much is required" ethic, "to whom comprehensive responsibility is given, there will be it's exponential scrutiny or accountability".Despite the fact that Parole generally has been abolished in Virginia since 1995, it exist in forms and its remaining process, which the Va Code 53.1-151.1, further travestied. The Parole process has historically based its justification of violating its purpose, by denying release of the prisoner on the existence and accumulation of prison infractions or disciplinary charges. What this means is administrative record of prison rule violations.

If imprisonment anticipates release, which not even a delusional arch-reactionary dare dispute and if the quintessential purpose and value of Parole is, release, then it is an inarguable fact that any factor or element interfering with its facilitation and process, is fraudulent and corrupt. The reason works as this labor to bring scrutiny on Social Contract systems, as the Parole process of the Commonwealth of Virginia, is because of that necessary anticipatory inherent reform dynamic of Social Contract systems, because systems are naturally contradictory and antagonistic and require reform. Let's recall a classic, which is the reduction of Black People to 3/5ths of a person by The Constitution of The United States of America. Virginia's Parole process isn't any different. Because as reflection of its diametric interests, which are political-economic, Civilizational (that the Commonwealth is a civilized entity, stepping away from the certitude and zealotry of primitive or reactionary thought, by providing early release of its imprisoned) and a formulant and adherent to Due Process of Law. As such what has happened is a Frankenstein creature,"thy name is the Commonwealth of Virginia's Parole system", perpetrated fraud and this isn't petty hyperbole. But every single aspect of the parole construct, is simply incapable of defending itself before an iota of democratic scrutiny or accountability. Let's begin: The Constitutions which the Commonwealth is subject to are firstly, the Virginia Constitution then the United States'. Under and within the applicable Amendments. So the prisoner, the Virginia Prisoner is a creation of Constitutional proscription, under the formulation of the deprivation of life, liberty, or property without due process of law. Now not to get entangled in the dissection of law, which is the work of the electorate, notwithstanding the self-serving assertions of Jurisprudence, but without the People there isn't Law for Jurisprudence to rear on its hinds and Speak. The qualification of this is self evident, because every aspect of jurisprudence is touched by electoral activity in one form or another. Whether its in the direct election of certain judgeships or the election of Politicians whose Official responsibilities and duties include the appointment of Judges. It is necessary for me to state that my intent with this is ensuring that there isn't any margin of confusion on the recognition the People of Virginia have of their role in the development of all of these jurisprudential terms and framing that either expands or limits cognizance of conceptual constructs that to simply put it, impacts their lives and existence in ways that are then ascribed to some metaphysical or mystical convergence,(and it isn't my intention to disparage metaphysics or the mystical), which had nothing to do with anything. That is if one wants to characterize every single human interest and intention as lacking agency save that of the "demonic", which then would require a compendium of which metaphysical or mystical force has a taste for a burger and to be specific, a White Castle's along with what flavor of shake. My point is, if we are to confront the natural corrupt dynamic of interest and its condition as, the business of human existence as activity of the Accountability-Function of governance, then we have to go about its scrutiny armed with knowledge and understanding and not the petty crassness of self-interest suppositions, that leave nothing but unconditional harm in its wake. Which is what Virginia's Parole process shows us. That its reliance on the administrative record of prison rule violations or disciplinary events allows the Virginia Prison Official to then exploit it.

To the Virginia Prison Official, the position is first and foremost employment, means of earning a living.All the other declarations as reasons are simply lip service and subordinate to the understandable normal motive of earning a living. This is aspect of that primary antagonism we find within the political-economy formulations of Virginia's Social Contract, being in diametric opposition with the dictatorship of intent of the social good of Parole to the Virginia human condition. Which simply is if parole releases the prisoner and the prison official requires the imprisonment of the prisoner, it isn't insight to recognize that there is that conventional conflict of interest, which in other spheres of the Social Contract, effort is undertaken to prohibit and inhibit. But when it comes to the imprisonment scheme, conflict of interest is the incentive scaffolding and operative. Let me say this, my position isn't a wily nilly criticism against anything, because in order for our human condition to develop and mature as we ameliorate the self-harm we mindlessly subject ourselves to, we have to have these revealed facts of human behavior, in order to structure the necessary accountability processes for resolution. In other words, yes the Virginia Prison Official is professionally corrupt, the imprisonment scheme itself is corrupt, the Justice Infrastructure is Idealistic at best and Corrupt at worst. Which my saying so, shouldn't be reviled, because if we are able to contextualize the schizophrenic hypocrisy of Thomas Jefferson, correctly and rightly indicting, "The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations....",while he, Jefferson was doing the same thing, by exacting daily," repeated injuries and usurpations "on the hundreds of Black People he held enslaved, then pointing out in 2026, that fundamental expressions of Virginia's governance and Government are equally corrupt, should only be welcomed, embraced and responded to with work of reforming it. Now it's one thing to have Parole or "short of term" release, be it in the existence of "sentence decrease, good-time" as fact of the prison sentence, which whether begrudgingly or not recognizes that the prisoner will be released to Society while actively pursuing a regime of dehumanizing the prisoner, all under the colloquial lunacy of "if you can't do the time, then don't the crime", or the Supreme Court of the U.S, sarcastically and sardonically declaring in the case RHODES v. CHAPMAN 452 U.S.337, that the U.S. "Constitution does not mandate comfortable prisons", when the issue and predicate question before the Supreme Court wasn't about comfort, but if two prisoners in a cell or double celling in a small cramped cell constituted Cruel and Unusual Punishment, a violation of the 8th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. Which in endorsing whatever harms double celling prisoners do and have done those Judges introduced a framing of the issue, which again exposes and underscores the inherent corruption of the imprisonment scheme. Because for one, if and I emphasize, IF, the People as State are exercising the logic of "imprisonment" as repair of harm and the harmed are to accept the imprisonment of alleged and assumed perpetrators as relief, then who is accountable for the ensuing condition and its universe of harm that the Prisoner is subjected to under the guise of "punishment"? Which under the presumptions of the same law applied as punishment against the imprisoned, must submit to the supremacy of a Constitutionally provided and produced "Due Process of Law", but isn't? Yet we are supposed to accept the resulting harm, that isn't imposed sentence, but as a implicit compact? while proclaiming the entire scheme "lawful", even as the entire imprisonment condition is a defacto extra-judicial affair?

In the first part of this work, I stated: The Parole Process has historically (I should qualify what I mean by "historically", because it only extends to the introductive beginnings of the formerly enslaved Black man, post Civil War and Emancipation into the Penitentiary system) based its justification of violating it's purpose, by denying release of the prisoner on the existence and accumulation of prison infractions or disciplinary charges. Then I developed it with, the Parole process: Reliance on the Administrative record of prison rule violations or disciplinary events allows the Virginia Prison Official to then exploit it. If as I have shown that the Virginia Prison Official has a fundamental conflict of interest, with the intention and purpose of the Parole process, which is release of the prisoner then, the Virginia Legislature more than anyone, save for the Virginia Prisoner, should understand and know such, which then should preclude it from actions that serve as catalyst, exemplified by the insidious HB 1030, codified, VA Code 53.1-151.1 act of Del. Tony Wilt (R) of Virginia's 34th District as a purported right side of history reform of Virginia's Parole process. Which requires the only response, as conclusion from the People of Virginia that there aren't enough hyperbolic metaphors, declaring, "We Reject It". What we as the People state is we have progressed, past the mindset and its formulations, revealed in this quote from Mr. Tony Wilt, shamelessly touting his irredeemable HB 1030, by WHSV-Richmond," IF WE'RE LOOKING TOWARDS THE POINT, THE TIME THAT THEY MIGHT NO LONGER BE [INCARCERATED], THEY WOULD BE BACK OUT IN THE PUBLIC THAT THEY HAVE SOMETHING TANGIBLE THAT CAN HELP CARRY THEM THROUGH". Now besides the implicit carte blanche, Mr. Wilt's Virginia law has further given the already professionally corrupt behavior of the Virginia Prison Official and it's foist on the People of Virginia. We welcome it's unanticipated consequence, as it presents prima facie evidence of how the Virginia legislator, specifically the Republican and conservative Democrat, enables the dehumanization of the Virginia Prisoner, by the intellectual-liberalism philosophy of the Virginia Prison official. Which we see its lawless privilege and prerogative permeating, Mr. Wilts quote. He begins with "If we're looking towards the point, the time that they might no longer be [incarcerated],....So i begin with why we are given all of these ad hoc and extra-judicial qualifiers?. There isn't any "If" in the circumstance of "lawful" imprisonment and the inherent release, unless what Mr. Wilt is saying out loud is what we already know which is, modern Virginia imprisonment is as lawful as its Black Codes progenitor and antecedent, that were simply a back door gambit to reimpose chattel labor on the post-Civil War dialectical emergence of the new Black socio-person. One can give Mr. Wilt the proverbial benefit of the doubt, that his quote is an expression of awareness of the reactionary mindset of his constituency, who are patently idealistic on grasping that the imprisoned are not outside of law, but are its creation, still if that is the presumption then as Representative, it is his obligation to enlighten the constituency in whose name he has acted that, imprisonment isn't dehumanization, nor is it a redistributive political-economy function. Where the imprisoned primarily serve as means of introducing money into exploited environments under the cover of "Justice" Infrastructural mission statements, at the expense of veneers of civilizing enlightenments, as providing Parole for the imprisoned. Those we specifically indict besides the Virginia legislator are Academia who supposedly have assumed the function of embodying enlightenment, but as history has shown are incapable of Speech.

THE QUESTION ISN'T WHETHER VIRGINIA'S PAROLE SET UP ISN'T FULL OF CONTRADICTIONS, BUT WHAT IS IT'S METAPHORICAL KINDRED, THE BIBLE CAME TO MIND, THEN I THOUGHT ABOUT 21 SAVAGE'S SONG "A Lot" AND YUP THATS IT By William Thorpe

Video are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes only

Of course as metaphor and font for contradictions, the Bible is beloved. But my work isn't about that resolution. 21 Savage is an artist and I like the way his "A Lot" sounds, because sometimes, simply stripping stuff down minimally qualifies it and when we talk about reforming Virginia's Imprisonment scheme, its Parole Antagonism has "A Lot" of contradictions, that require honesty and not gimmicks that add on to it's already to no ends Universe of Contradictions. Parole as fact of the human condition is basically humans, unconditionally stating that nothing is infallible and if there will be certain responses and reactions to human social behavior, then no one is so full of their self, that certitude aside, the recognition that "cause" is equally accountable as behavior, isn't fundamental to the business of human existence. So, with this stated, let's get at Virginia's Parole system. So first of all, despite the fact there isn't anyone amongst us, as Humans, that is, who will dare lay claim to omniscience, but those crooked and corrupt with its hubris, still endeavor to embody its certitude by exploiting it as surrogacy. In other words, they're canny and cagey enough to know that, Society will reject certitude without self-aware limitations, so they frame and couch it as "values" of make your pick of font, be it "tradition" or some other assumed unimpeachable source. The point is the fact that the entire scheme is a motive of their self-interest, which isn't exposed and held to account by scrutiny, is a result of, for one those subjected to its suppositions, regardless of reasons are not speaking up. So there isn't a practical accounting that goes beyond convention. So, we see Speech defaming and employing liability against all sorts of constructs, hypocritically, which as it concerns this work, Virginia's Parole structure, without having to actually defend anything. This state of affairs isn't a mere expression of social ignorance, but is also the emergence of unforeseen consequences, which again isn't exposed as evidence of its bogus and spurious thought. So it continues to exist under Newtonian motion as a truism, despite the obviousness of its status quo genesis, which, naturally has an interest bias, but becomes a self-affirming "irreproachable" default, which to call to account an entire type of political energy, subsequently has to be expended to ablate its rust on the Social Contract and the business of human existence. I have structured all of this, to show that to reform Virginia's Parole intention, requires the work of, akin to an archeological excavation, where the facts speak without the corruption of suppositions, ignorance's, unforeseen consequences and the reactionary motive and what we have laid bare are contradictions that because we now confront them within the original dictatorship of its intention, which is Parole is a construct, a social good to be acted on. Despite the People being the Supreme Power in the Commonwealth of Virginia or to present it as "Popular Sovereignty", its means of actualization is by Electoral Representation. Which is eligible, conscientious and serious Virginians vote for Virginians who will represent their thought and will as governance. However, the People of Virginia have to know and understand whatever the formulations of their primary and secondary issues and concerns are so that existential business of human existence can be materialized as relatively stable as possible. The issue of Parole also falls under, this relative stability pursuit, yet its where we see its absence.

SOCIETY IS CONSTRUCTED ON IDEAS PART VI By William Thorpe

Pictures are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes only
This is Part VI, in the STRUCTURED-ON IDEAS SERIES. As I've been doing in the preceding installments, is presenting to Family, Ally and Friends of the Virginia Prisoner (and as I've always stressed, it also includes the Nations Prisoners), existence of some of the thinking and concepts that influence the Legislator/Policy maker regarding, imprisonment schemes, which by definition encompasses the Social Contract, even though the Status Quo, would rather, the connection isn't made. In other words, the less the People are comprehensively aware that the Social Contract is a construct of all sorts of connections, each seemingly at odds, yet each animated by a specific but collective and unified interest, the less a practical human existence qualifying fact is achieved. So to that ends, even though the business of human existence is being pursed and developed on the productivity of tremendous technology, the organic human driver exists, self-checked or constrained by, despite not being for the most part in cognizable, conspiratorial concert, but the results are the same, (under that critique of voting against ones interests), that same status quo imperative of "maintaining control", by concealing the liberating agency the prescience of the existence of the cogency of disparate and composite parts, introduces as redemption to and for the People. What I want to do with Part VI of the series, is focus on a more basic fact of "Ideas constructing Society or the Social Construct". I have stressed the fact that if "We don't speak for ourselves others will and it won't be for or in our best interest ".The Social Contract or Society and for purposes of this work, Virginia, hasn't matured to the realization that the accountability-function of ideas and it's dictatorship of intent, isn't dependent or conditional, even though that is exactly how we, without presence of mind encounter it in our individual organic existence. What concerns me is holding the Virginia prison official accountable and reforming Virginia's imprisonment scheme. So its one thing for us to indict the various culprits of the Status Quo, including the various functionaries of its support system and such indictment is necessary because its logic is what is at odds. But reforming Virginia's imprisonment scheme is much more than identifying its hapless culprits, who might appear hierarchical august and are the source of total grief for the average Virginian, but reforming the imprisonment scheme is fundamentally, the insistence that, "accountability", isn't a mere buzzword nor is it owned and monopolized by a specific world view. In other words, accountability isn't only punitive, vengeful, retributive or vindictive. But accountability quintessentially is multifaceted with its one and only master, "scrutiny" and all its synonyms. In so many words I'm echoing our ancients who dared declare, "that even the Sun had to justify its existence ".Such query of accountability isn't a mere primitive formulation of the punitive, but what it reveals is that honest-labor and work of how do we get at responding to contradictions and antagonisms, which as it confronts us, is Virginia's imprisonment scheme. What the Family, Ally and Friends of the Virginia Prisoner have is ability to organize using available resources. For starters a biweekly Zoom brainstorming of 10 People, then expand it, at each meeting, sharpen the message, Print it on a single leaflet and introduce it into the community.
