Is that the rich and connected will do everything in their power to protect each each other.

Only someone lying to themselves thinks drop will ever be held accountable for anything.

The world learns that power, money and violence control everything.

Trump is immune.

Guns are immune.

Republicans are immune.

Women, people of color and LGBTQ are not.

Poor are not.

The world is falling apart and all we can do fight each other over shit that doesn't matter.
