I'm tired of the "It's a distraction from the Epstein Files" line. No, Trump's a man who abuses others continuing to do so. (hexbear.net)

Someone is abusing people en masse to... distract from their prior abuse of people? No, he's just continuing to be the same horrible person, supported by other horrible people, as he was before.

The fanfare around the Epstein Files at the exclusion of all else ("This is a distraction from the Epstein files!") is the zombified corpse of the Mueller Investigation fanfare walking again. They want us to believe that, instead of the masses making history, somehow suits in Washington (many of the same ones who help keep the lights on for ICE) releasing more details of Trump's past abuses will put an end to his regime's abuses. They want us to believe this even when during the Biden years they dragged their feet on prosecuting him and didn't throw him in a cell, plus giving many of his Jan. 6th rioters exceptionally nice treatment in federal prison if they did get locked up.

Trump has literally said in his 2016 campaign speech he could shoot someone in broad daylight and he wouldn't lose support and it still holds true. 40% of this country are ride or die with this man and no evidence of him r*ping kids is going to change that. Shit, we see it today with the execution in minneapolis, the 2A chuds who have been screaming their heads off for decades about Obama taking their guns are suddenly like "um, he was a violent criminal, sweetie". It's like that Sartre quote about antisemites "Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies" these people believe in nothing outside of seeing the OTHER camp lose. So coming back to that, Trump is making the other camp lose, so all is forgiven, Epstein be damned.

It's like looking at a sunset or the view from a mountain top. I'm not even commenting on hypocrisy because that's an electric move on a ground type. But I'm just amazed by the way that it doesn't matter "what about when I'm the one on the chopping block?" doesn't factor into the equation for them. You're going to cold start the "this violates my constitutional rights!!" engine after they practice their response to trampling over it? No, they're going to drag you from your vocation to die in the street next! The hatred and exclusion matter so much that it doesn't matter that you're next? It's like watching Icarus' wings melt as a relief in a golden background.
