Yeah, none of them actually do that. People are angry at the top because we constantly see them getting away with shit in the media. Like Trump, for example. I'm fucking pissed at him and the entire Republican establishment, because they're criminal fascists who tried to do a fucking coup, and I'm pissed at the Democrats for fucking glad-handing and footsying around with fucking fascists instead of treating it like the serious fucking problem it is. I'm pissed at AG Garland waiting until it was clear that Trump wasn't going to give back classified documents after two years to finally file charges. Anyone else would have been in chains almost immediately, and we literally had an air force kid that happened to recently as an example. I'm pissed at Obama for not putting an AG that would go after Bushes war crimes. No, we have a lot of glad-handing and letting people off at the top and that's where that sentiment fucking comes from Obama you "we need to look forward not backward" piece of shit. His lack of will in prosecuting war crimes is part and parcel to why they're so hesitant to prosecute Trump. It's all a fucking joke.
That is why people are angry at the top, not because any fucking media told us to. FUCK! Because it's painfully obvious there's two justice systems, one for the rich and politically connected and one for everyone else!
