God save us from the delusion that whatever happens was secretly the prediction of assholes in power.
Sometimes… people… fuck up.
Sometimes people fuck up real big.
These people got caught lying on tape. Maybe they’re not as smart as you’d like.
You think I want them to be smart? Lol.
Something controversial happens -> a lot of people get pissed off (understandably so) -> media milks the shit out of the event -> narratives - true, false, embellished, whatever get created -> mischaracterization for anyone who’s approach to handling the situation isn’t in line with majority rule, blah blah blah -> the bad guys (usually) walk away fine.
That’s a very common cycle.
I wasn’t happy with what happened, but it’s been 2 months at this point, and what I’ve gathered is that nothing is going to change.
And yet because I say that these protests are fruitless people get mad and go absolutely nuts on the downvote button.
Sorry, I was under the impression we could have an open discussion without making assumptions in bad faith about people who disagree with the rationale.
My bad 🤚
‘Injustice is fine, actually. I am very smart.’
K bye.
No, it isn’t fine.
And no, I don’t think I’m “very smart”.
