It's wild how much law enforcement just works for corporate interests.
- sneak 3y agoIt makes a lot more sense when you realize that the machinery of the state (including especially law enforcement) exists solely to preserve and maintain the existing socioeconomic order and not to, you know, enforce laws or protect the public. The system is working as designed. Once you see it, you cannot unsee it. It’s everywhere. https://youtube.com/watch?v=A0wMSNlBBjc https://youtube.com/watch?v=A0wMSNlBBjc
