Remember when the Catholic Church tried to protect abusive priests?
Now we have the Republican party protecting pedophiles.
It is so entertaining to see how americans eat up every “pedophilia”-bone that is thrown to them.
Like do not get me wrong, powerful people get away with literal murder so of course there are powerful pedos getting away. The Epstein-Story however has been shut down when they offed that guy. Now it is only a smokescreen to rile up the people and divert from other matters and like always it is working like a god damn charm. For the Dems its nice because they can feel like winners without doing anything. Nice. Repubes right now are fumbling a bit because they played the whole “wE gOnNa rElEaSe tHe FiLeS” one to many times but i would bet all my belongings on absolutely nothing happening. At this point i am not even sure they have left any evidence for people to find or whistleblow.
The Democrats who didn’t release them when they controlled the house and Senate?
They’re on it too.
And yet all of them voted in favor of the release.
It’s easy to vote yes, if you know your friends will vote no.
But then why do the Republicans look like child sex predators? Idk, maybe they should’ve voted to release the documents anyway, unless they are actually the predators.
I think Lemmy has been taken over in the last few weeks.
Comments like this would be 100% upvoted at the top, and now it’s “a debate” or “you could have said that kinder”
Of course the Dems are on the files. They are “making an effort” because it’s a political no brainer. They now GOP will block it and look bad doing it, and they can campaign on that they wanted it released.
Those files are the reason we only have 5 frames of whatever impacted the pentagon, why Trump was never held accountable for any of his serious crimes, and how the entire cabal works.
If you can keep them quiet with kompromat, you control the entire state. How is this not bleeding obvious for anyone with half a brain?
Where do we go now that Lemmy is becoming another Reddit?
There’s a handful of accounts I see repeatedly going to bat for centrist (or extreme right or antiwest) positions and they universally have thousands or tens of thousands of comments in less than a year or two. I will sometimes still engage because it’s important people don’t think it was just left at their comment, but they are clearly not average people. They are either astroturfing or some kind of unwell sycophants. No one posts that much regularly brown nosing to people who actively do not care about you. The platform I use allows tagging of users. I’ve found that helpful so I at least can recognize them without having to remember their names. I try not to bring too much attention to the fact I’m aware of who is likely engaging in bad faith because it encourages them to change tactics, but I’m sure they know their tells already, but we are not at the point where enough average Lemmy users care or notice. Once more people start to notice hopefully we see them shut down more often. You’re not alone in noticing this.
