The public is being shown just enough to know the truth, and to understand that nothing is going to happen.

Not sure about that. It is a side effect perhaps. 

But the empire is crumbling. 

Right now the files are still being used as a political weapon by the fascist regime to target people who didn’t pay enough loyalty to the emperor, like Gates, Clinton, Musk, Royal families in Europe. 

There is a vast body, possibly much more than the DOJ is admitting (as there is literally no oversight), of documents that is being held back. This is the emperor showing and warning: pay fealty to me, and I can protect you, see what happens when you don’t.

That is the real game that is playing out before our eyes, and they are doing it with the hearts and souls of the victims foremost. So let’s not let up on the pressure and make sure their suffering is not in vain and we get accountability.

However you split this: this is the beginning of the rich eating the rich. This is what is to be expected at this point in the timeline of the fall of an empire.

Not so sure about whether this will normalise it, but it will be a permanent blemish on any rich fucker who’s trying to convince us their company has the best intentions for humanity.

It is exposing an insanely depraved and disgusting power structure that has been going on for far too long. I’ve been exposed to this myself for decades of my life and I’ve never gotten used to it — it’s only motivated me to go after them harder.
