I don't want an apology, I want you to:
Your apology doesn't mean shit when nothing has been done to fix the fact that a hostile coup imprisoned hundreds of people illegally in a political prison; and no one is even campaigning for their immediate pardon. Give me one reason why someone should be held without charge for 3 months. Give me one reason why people charged with misdemeanors shouldn't see their attorney until trial. Give me one reason why people with misdemeanor charges are facing 8 months in 23 hour solitary confinement until trial. Give me one reason why the QAnon Shaman agreed to a 31 month prison sentence, only if he apologized to the judge about his beliefs and publicly condemned Donald Trump; only for the judge to accept the guilty plea & reject the settlement by sentencing him to 41 months instead. The best literally any of us can hope for is a pardon after we win. And even then, only maybe. So I don't care about negotiation, debate, or dialogue. Peace through victory is our only answer. I no longer believe in justice, and I no longer believe that anything but unconditional and undisputed victory is the way forward on any issue. We've been told so many times that the answer to every complaint, objection, protest, demand, and even plea has been "kill yourself" that I'm simply just not interested in any sort of amnesty. Because of assholes like you, we are de-banked, dehumanized, and disrupted. Our country is burning, our civilization is dead, and all you can say is "oops sawwy". Which, I will remind you, several of the January 6th defendants have done thanks to the relentless persecution of the DOJ and prison staff.
I don't give a shit that your sorry. Stay the fuck out of our way.
