Uh, that’s why I said the fascists are still working on it. We’ll know it’s really gone when shows like COPS can no longer say, “All suspects shown are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.”
Right, I know it’s under attack, but why then hasn’t media just dispensed with the pretense? Life would be so much easier if people stopped lying to each other, putting on fronts and making pretentions at being something or someone they’re not. It’s like, we know they’re full of shit, they know they’re full of shit. They know that we know, and we know that they know. So, what’s the point of keeping up this bullshit game any longer?
It’s not that it’s under attack it’s that it was never a thing to a portion of the populace. Namely black/brown/indigenous people.
The media hasn’t dispensed with the pretense because they’re propagandists owned by billionaires who have no interest in educating or informing people of the actual issues and only exist to distract and redirect the populace attention to the bread and circuses.
For now, anyway. Due process and the presumption of innocence are still holding up, but the fascists are working hard on that one.
You have not been reading the news recently.

What? No friend, that’s a very privileged viewpoint that doesn’t hold true for many people and never has.
