Too many people believe that corruption, once exposed, should be "gotten over", forgotten, that people should just move on, that to keep mentioning how Mike Thompson voted to allow more poisons in our waterways or how our Supervisors voted to allow deforestation or Gov. Newsom approving 54 new fracking permits since the beginning of the lockdown, or even how the DNC rigs primary elections, giving us a choice between corporate rule and fascism (essentially the same) is just "being negative", that we shouldn't name it.
I like positive messages. I like hearing that someone wants to close the camps on the border or to stop bombing people. But as long as we have corrupt officials in office, who have worked for death & destruction to line their own re-election coffers, it is imperative that we continue to name it, again and again. Allowing the public to forget that the reason substantial change on crucial issues doesn't come is because those officials have taken pay-offs to work against the people is to support oppression.
Paying elected officials to work for corporations instead of the people is like poaching employees at their workplace.

Former CIA director tells it point blank: intelligence agents are paid to lie. If they think something is in the best interest of the country, even if it's not, they'll lie. And yet, they are frequent policy "experts" on mainstream media & Congresspeople.
