    Outgroups whom the law binds but does not protect

  2. is this asshat actually comparing somali refuges and their descendants to the rich and powerful on the Epstein list?

    You all see the slimy game he is playing here right?

  3. Marx was right.

    Which is exactly why the media has spent so much effort trying to make marxism mean things it doesn’t.

  4. We have a chance to do something about it, come midterm, and all the elections to follow, if we don’t take the “chum.”

    Lots of people commenting about how the Somali incidents are “made-up.” I assumed the same, and while their reaction is disproportianate, ignores other larger problems and is almost certainly motivated primarily by race.. it IS in fact a problem and this particular epidemic of fraud DOES seem to be perpetuated overwhelmingly by Somali nationals (something like 90% of the cases charged so far according to multiple independent outlets.)

    Facts matter even when they’re inconvenient.

  6. There have been indictments, arrests, and sentencing for the fraud in MN though…?

    This shit has been reported on as early as 2014. Took off in 2016, arrests made in 2022/23.

    Epstein was a billionaire, and died in prison in questionable circumstances. Wealth doesn’t always equal immunity.

  8. Remember the Panama papers? Too many people don’t, because crimes by elites don’t bother them, only “welfare queens”.

  9. it’s wild how billionaires can dodge accountability with lawyers, but i get fined for forgetting recycling day

  10. Serious question, has anything in the released Epstien files yet about anyone, actually been shown to be evidence of a crime?

  11. There will be no negative consequences for the employers who hired the “illegal immigrants”, including Trump. They committed the same fact same level of civil offense and financially benefitted from knowingly violating the law. The working class has their lives destroyed while the owner class laughs at the law and keeps the profits.

    “Did someone say my name?”

    No, not fuckin Daniel Dennehy!

    Yeah get out of here dude!

    “Oh, Bye-ee”

  13. “The common sense of mankind demands that law shall not stop with the punishment of petty crimes by little people. It must also reach men who possess themselves of great power and make deliberate and concerted use of it to set in motion evils which leave no home in the world untouched.”

    The system is working as expected, the law in a capitalist system is a tool for the rich to keep the working class in check.
