Everyone in power decided it was easier to genocide an entire race live in front of everyone (with the full support of the media and every weapons company on the planet) or by crashing the petrodollar by closing off a fifth of the world’s supply to distract from the fact that every single person on the planet has been manipulated by a cabal of satanistic pedo billionaires.

Until the vast majority go out and become their own personal Luigi Mangione, nothing will get done. The corruption isn’t just systemic, it’s integral. You want to end corruption? Then you must end the whole nation.

They distracted Americans with the Iran war. Note that in other countries, they actually did something, like how Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. Formerly Prince Andrew; he was stripped of his titles when he was found to be involved. Sure, he wasn’t prosecuted for being a nonce, but the United Kingdom did more for someone accused of less than the Americans did with Trump, who was notably accused of far more. What the Americans did do was punish more working-class paedophiles. Sure, they all deserve to be rounded up and jailed indefinitely if they’ve harmed a child, but the American response to people in power hurting actual children was to step up enforcement of people who merely looked at pictures or watched videos of them, and others like them, doing it. I’m glad those people are being rounded up, but if you’re gonna ignore the ones actually doing it in those pictures and videos, what’s the bloody point? It would seem that the point is, the crime is not being a nonce, it’s being a nonce who isn’t rich.

They covered the Epstein files and nobody had any consequences.

The Orange Cheeto started a war to allow news to shift away from the PDF files. There is still coverage but it’s just not being done by the companies that are owned by billionaires who have been bribing the Cheeto

What more is there to cover? We’ve known most of the names involved for years already and very little has come of it.

The fact that U.S. authorities are actively covering up the crimes of what appear to be numerous and influential co-conspirators—by unlawfully redacting documents and withholding material they are required to release—is likely a factor. The fact that U.S. law enforcement agencies refuse to investigate this case for the same reason is another factor. Consequently, there have been no new developments, since it is clear that the investigation has effectively been suspended, even though the case is obviously far from closed. This in itself is, of course, a scandal that in any reasonably functioning country would inevitably lead to the government’s downfall. But as many have already said, the media isn’t reporting on this because there is essentially no free press left in the U.S. However, I simply cannot comprehend the fact that U.S. citizens have apparently resigned themselves to the fact that their system is so obviously corrupt that it not only fails to prevent the most serious crimes but actually enables them in the first place. To me, it is absolutely inexplicable that the current regime remains in office despite its obvious criminality and is not forced to resign through mass civil disobedience. This regime and its network of oligarchs behind it are the reason why the most serious crimes, including those committed by Epstein’s accomplices, go unpunished. In short: There is no longer any reporting on Epstein and his network because high-ranking members of the U.S. government are quite obviously involved themselves and are therefore doing everything in their power to suppress coverage. This, however, is only possible because U.S. citizens are not holding them accountable. That’s frightening, but unfortunately it’s the reality.

Same thing that happens to every elite caught doing unspeakable crimes, nothing.

I mean what more is there to say? The files conclusively show that a ton of figures in academia, finance, politics, etc are beholden to an evil practice of billionaire child trafficking. It’s out there in the open and everyone knows it already. What could more coverage do at this point? The bourgeois pedophiles are still in power. There aren’t any mechanisms for accountability for these people. Not to be too cynical or anything, but no amount of simple exposure was ever going to collapse the system. There also needs to be a structured, organized resistance or else the Epstein class will simply go on with business as usual.

In spite of the distractions they keep popping up. Junior even helped out by marrying the daughter of Epstein’s main banker.

Honestly it’s laughable when westerners say " trump is doing X to distract from the Epstien files" no dude, he does it cause he’s insane. He doesn’t care about the Epstien files. He knows he’s above the law while he’s serving as the president

They started a war that makes everything more expensive for everyone, now their problems are your problems, now the focus is on survival and they get to say, Are you guys still talking about how most of the ruling class are pedophiles? Let bygones be bygones, boys will be boys, We have more important things to do!

Here is a quote of the original commenter I was responding to : > and there's definitely gonna be a need for some more Luigi's to carry out those exceptional tasks that don't benefit from "too many cooks", but IMO we need the proletarian majority to \*organize\* and \*collaborate\* to overthrow the system. Is saying that we need more Luigi's to carry out exceptional tasks just "organising" ? So this is just non-violent organization ? And if you are referring to the other commenter he straight up said that sometimes we need a little bit of violence to make the world better.
