This is what happened the last time we tried to come together and demand change …

**Submission Statement**

A couple days ago, the NYPD made a spectacle out of Luigi Mangione’s perp walk. They had him surrounded with dozens of cops like he’s the Joker or Bane.

I think the reason they did this was because they wanted a blatant show of force to try to intimidate his supporters and make them think they’re supporting the bad guy. I think the notion of Mr. Mangione becoming a martyr or symbol is very threatening to the people that run this country.

The reason I linked this image is because as someone who participated in the Occupy Wall Street protests in the Autumn of 2011, I can clearly see that was when the media pushed identity politics into overdrive. That was the last time Americans were setting aside their political differences to demand accountability from the banking industry. Occupy Wall Street’s demand was simple:

Hold the bankers that wrecked the economy accountable.

Instead, many of the Occupy Wall Street protesters were arrested themselves.

The point of this post is simple, keep your eyes open and see what the next big distraction will be to try to stifle this momentum that’s building up against the corrupt healthcare industry. Monetizing the health problems of Americans is a trillion dollar industry, so expect the people that run the country to fight tooth and nail to preserve the status quo.
