    Arrested? Why would they arrest themselves? This was never about getting them arrested by the very system they own, it was about hopefully finding ourselves enough of a reason to get off our asses and punish them ourselves, but we’re so far gone that even this isn’t enough.

      I keep calling for violent protest but everyone keeps telling me violence isn’t the answer.

      Okay, then what the fuck is? Do you think they give two shits about diplomacy or a strongly worded letter?

        We were fed the “violence isn’t the answer” propaganda line over and over again so that we think it’s true. We were never given an alternative because our oppressors knew there was no alternative. They just wanted to close that door in our minds, and they succeeded.

        No one has really done anything of note about it so from the outside it looks like silent consent.

        hey, I can’t control the inscrutable dark abyss inside me and americans can’t prosecute, arrest, or even just mildly inconvenience pedophiles if they make over 90k/yr. guess we’re all defined by our limitations
