Seriously, wouldn't this be kind of huge news if we suddenly had access to the evidence they tried to hide? Too bad this is a news article and someone probably changed the password by now.

It's ridiculous that evidence of the crimes they committed is going to be used to arrest anyone who tries to uncover evidence of who committed those crimes. By ridiculous I don't mean I don't think it will happen. I think you are right about that.

I mean, I know there are some people who would definitely do the wrong thing and that's why it needed to be released carefully to avoid this kind of mess and why normally this kind of digging would be done by the government or trusted investigators, but it's troublesome because the established power structure (regardless of party) are some of the same people who committed these crimes and we clearly can't trust them to do the right thing.

This is why it's so important to maintain the school-to-prison pipeline, because we never made slavery illegal, we just made it so you have to be a criminal first.

Typically, the crime is being poor. Our forefathers made sure people of color will remain disproportionately trapped in poverty, and poor whites are described as "trash". We have many mechanisms in place to make sure anyone born poor stays there, generationally.

The system isn't broken. It is working as designed.

They obviously don't get it yet considering you barely have any upvotes and the top comment here is thinking we can fix the problem by calling our representatives and giving them a piece of our mind.

But the creativity of those kids can't be turned into something capitalizable because most of them will spend their life doing 'unskilled' labor or having their creativity slowly destroyed by corporate work.

Curing patients is not a sustainable business model.
