Sanchez Estrada’s wife, Maricela Rueda, received a 70-year sentence, longer than most of the other defendants because of her alleged role in a conspiracy to commit obstruction by asking Sanchez Estrada to move the zines after her arrest.
70 years because you asked your husband to move a box of magazines. Meanwhile, if you brutally beat a policeman while invading the Capitol on behalf of Donald Trump, you get a pardon.
murica in a nutshell
Moving a box of what now?
Zines is short for magazines, but i have only ever heard the term used referencing political propaganda (almost always leftist) magazines.
Seems like a term used to justify. Like if it was porno mags or something it no longer counts as first amendment protected because it’s naughty
There are all kinds of zines. They’re really just cheaply produced magazines for a usually fairly niche interest group. They don’t have to be leftist, though right-wingers usually lack the imagination to produce an interesting zine.
Hey now let’s be fair some of them are imaginative enough to create something analogues to a zine. Ever heard of chick tracts, plenty imaginative even if it is completely because of religious psychosis.
What’s the little sixteen-page-folded-up-from-a-single-page format called? Those are pretty cool.
zine.
I used to make one called poppedevolution
Zines has been a thing forever. A zine is a magazine that is a non-commercial, often homemade, online and usually about specialized and nisch subjects.
I used to browse BMEzine a lot about 25 years ago. They’ve been a thing since 1994. It’s short for “Body Modification Ezine”, where Ezine means electronic magazine.
Ah yes. The well known leftist trope of “DIY Bicycle Maintenance”
I heard the term zine used for small tabletop RPG publications. It’s not a term only used for political propaganda.
