We are told that “good government” praises those who do good and punish those who do evil. Of course, that is a key metric to determine whether or not man-made, human, mandatory governments can be tolerated as a necessary evil, or rejected as tyrannical parasites which must be put down.

Here in our homeland, we see something even worse, perhaps, than not praising those who do good and not punishing those who do evil. What is that? Government that enables, instigates, and protects those who do evil. When justice is denied to victims of parasites, evil-doers in government positions of authority, and the evil-doers are unindicted, untried, and unpunished.

Ah? But what is evil? Today, there might not be a lot of agreement on that. But so far, the vast majority of people in the States (we think, at least) believe that pedophilia is evil. That men and women who prey on children, and even those defined as “under-age,” are doing wrong. They must be stopped, must be prevented from committing sexual acts (or even trying to commit them) with children. (We here at TPOL know of some who have been sent to prison for that.)

As more and more comes out from the Epstein files and the seeming attempts by prominent members of the current regime and bureaucracy to hide names and actions? Consider this:

It is not, of course, just Republicans: go to this list what has more dozens of Republicans and many Democrats. Now, we realize that these lists may be bogus, or have many errors: just as both the mainstream media and the alternative media try to push their agendas. And some of these are decades old.

The point is: while many of these have been exposed, tried, convicted, and punished, many have not been. (And the punishments are often little more than hand-slaps.) Yes, we must keep ensuring that people are innocent until proven guilty, even of something like this. But the signs are clear: American governments are not providing justice for victims, nor justice to predators.

This is not, of course, anything new. Human governments have always both provided opportunity for those in power to abuse that power. Particularly sexually, and of course, not restricting their perversions to other adults. We see this documented in both the Bible and secular history, going back thousands of year. Now, perhaps mere sexual use and abuse does not rate as horrible as outright slavery, or vicious behavior: beatings and killings. Or does it?

And of course, justice is not denied just for pedophiles and their victims. Many abuses and actions of government officials (and their cronies) are ignored, brushed aside, or even praised.

On one hand, we have people who involuntarily submit to all these things. But it is a fact that the submission is often “voluntary” on the part of victims. People (especially children) who are persuaded to accept their abuse as “necessary” or “obedient” or some other excuse. For those in power to brainwash the victims of government officials and favorites into accepting their abuse as “good” is even more evil. If we can categorize evil that way.

The listing of people in the Epstein emails is one that must be carefully analyzed. But we cannot expect that many (or any) of these people who are actually guilty will be punished. Much less that victims will be treated fairly. For governments, regardless of how we label them, regardless of what they promise or claim, are one way in which potential power over potential victims can and does become real.
