Jeffrey Epstein’s “birthday book,” filled with grotesque and fawning tributes to the late pedophile and trafficker of women, exposes the real social physiognomy of the US ruling class.
I’ve been to lots of protests, even crossing half my country to go to some (huge country btw), for decades. I just got tired of everybody pretending to be angry and then celebrate pyrrhic victories, if we even managed to get one. I was politically involved and pissed since my early teens, but nothing has ever truly changed due to protests. Only shallow changes, promptly reversed a few months or years later and nobody cared, because nobody was willing to even cause destruction of property at the very least. I got pepper-sprayed too many times to bother with fake outrages. If nobody is going to really care, neither will I.
