... the intense racial targeting that’s become synonymous with the drug war wasn’t an unintended side effect - it was the whole point.

It could have been during Nixon's times, but as far as the "drug war, brought to you by your friendly prison-industrial lobby" in the 1990s is concerned, it was a side effect. They don't care about race, they care about the headcount.

Must be that nice synergy.
Not unlike how bacteria invade the host compromised by a virus.

Many people were saying this. War on blacks.

I was in a court recently... things are really really bad. "12 angry men" scenario is pretty much still alive.
