Surely no "leftist" is going to get incredibly mad about this good post in the comments.
"And besides, there's no reason to cry because all of this is nothing but a distraction from the Epstein files anyway. You know? Epstein? What do you mean, you never heard of him? You don't follow American news?"
I'm waiting for the "it's only a distraction from Epstein" people to be saying this in line to the gas chambers. "These camps are just a distraction from the Epstein files".
Like, we know. But NOTHING is going to be done about Epstein until the power of the state is seized from the ruling class of pedophile capitalist. So, maybe, you can work with us on getting there first.
The "it's just a distraction" crowd seems to think that if only we all focused on Epstein than somehow the current systems and powers would provide justice. To me it's a means to justify their own inaction. A bit of denial that the systems of liberal democracy are not flawed. That we just need "focus" and we can fix it.
They won't. They never will. They are designed from the ground up to protect every single pedophile in those files. ICE is not a "distraction" from Epstein. It is an EXTENSION of it. The powers of the pedophilic capitalist class are rounding up children dude. What do you think that means?
Edit: Your comment could have been sarcastic. So don't take my annoyed rant personally. I'm just exhausted with the "it's just a distraction" crowd.
Oh, I get it! It's funny because in real life the kid would never get to see soldier do the murdering, and if he did, he'd be dead! It's absurd ohhhhhhh ha

...and the Philippines, and Guatemala, and Mexico, and Iraq, and Afghanistan, and Somalia, and so on.
People are capable of change. But until that change actually occurs we can't live in a world in which we try to save them at the cost of other good people.
There is a difference between trying to change the average American and remove their reactionary ideas and an ICE agent. We should waste zero effort in caring about "saving" ICE. They are Nazis. And should be treated as such.
We are currently in the "shame" phase of ICE. We have quickly moved passed trying to use the liberal state to fight them. The Democratic party has made it clear they won't. So now we are in the peaceful protest and shame phase.
When filming them becomes illegal. When insulting them is considered inciting violence. There will be no peaceful means left.
And we have arrived at that all but on paper. When the state declares these too as illegal acts. They will further be emboldened to brutalize us.
It is at that point that no means of resistance will remain that is nonviolent. But unfortunately, I think a lot of Americans won't realize this until many well intentioned non violent people are slaughtered.
I upset the trump supporters. I'll see myself out.
They’re trained specifically to do what they’re currently doing.
They shouldn’t be willing to be follow someone actively and blatently committing treason.
He's really not doing anything out of the ordinary for the American Empire, unfortunately.
It's not treason, it's the purpose of the US Empire's millitary.
Volunteer servants who agree to lose all their benefits if they don't serve exactly as their master wishes arent usually the type of people I think of when it comes to rebelling.
The higher ups who joined as officers maybe a bit, but even then the higher ups who had the possibility of being rebellious were all investigated for loyalty and removed if they were risk.
I can get health benefits and tuition coverage? "Only if you obey, if you step out of line we'll stick you in a terrible position or a risky spot where you get injured first, then we'll discharge you dishonorably if you disagree with shooting a child and not cover your disability payments"
Where do I sign?
I wish more US troops would commit treason and go against the US settler colonial project. There have been cases.
I miss when words meant things
