I think if you are relatively new to politics or government abuse, you really aught to familiarize yourself with the case of Julian Assange.

Yeah if the pipe is opened up ahead of time you can write to it.

He took no action. That's my problem. He seems to lack discernment. He sees roughly who the enemy is, but he's too easily manipulated by their propaganda. The people going after assange are the enemy. His lack of action on that issue was kind of the last straw for me. Now assange is left to the wolves with very few in our government who can or will do anything to right that wrong. His persecution has had a stifling effect on truth.

I mean you can be against biden and call out the mistakes of Trump. I dont think he was malicious as many like to cast him, but I think he really missed the boat if he wanted to drain the swamp.

Draining the swamp would have been the right course of action based on the revelations of wiki leaks and snowden. Instead they were persecuted by the swamp and everyone just got out of the way.

I think if assange remains a target of our government, draining the swamp is impossible. Minimizing political persecution of people who came before trump in that pipeline won't get us where we need to be.I would recommend "The Trial of Julian Assange" by Nils Melzer as a good source of information on the persecution. This is a critical issue to understand when it comes to how the swamp operates. The author was a UN human rights guy who initially discounted the importance of the case.https://www.versobooks.com/books/3949-the-trial-of-julian-assange

There are other issues I'm unhappy with Trump's behavior around but this is one of the most important. I also think his nicotine vape executive order, bump stocks, and operation warp speed suggest he is not impervious to propaganda. It would be better if the president was able to discern the bullshit.Now that said I would prefer Trump over Biden. I just think I'd rather someone completely new who maybe sees the truth a little more clearly.

Those who spied on his campaign are the same people who demonized assange and snowden for exposing the level of spycraft going on in our country and around the world.I also think elections have been mostly manipulated for pretty much the entirety of my lifetime. Trump was one of many who have been effected.

You are welcome. It's a pretty detailed book but it's relatively short and easy reading.

I wonder if it's an outbreak (actual increase) or a coming to the surface of a problem that has been suppressed for a long time. I remember when the whole alter boy thing was a regular joke.

Yeah the alter boy thing was a joke, but very real and wide spread as it turned out. that's why I say maybe there isn't really an increase just more visibility (especially with them coming up with new language like MAP). The normalization won't make someone a pedo but it might make them comfortable in their pedophilia where before shame may have actually held some of the creeps back.

For anyone who cares, charlestown.social will be shut down in the relatively near future. I dont have a date yet because I'm working moving some other more important things from the environment first, but if you are following me here and feel like keeping up with whatever dumb shit I post here, you can follow @thatguyoverthere I will be bringing up my own instance again in the future, but I need to consolidate for a bit.
