It’s anarcho-tyranny. The state allows criminals preying on citizens to run amok unmolested, but anything that threatens their power is crushed. That’s why they tolerate rampant shoplifting , and releasing violent criminals back onto the streets as long as they don’t threaten the states’ power. The bolsheviks did it in russia. It keeps us demoralized and divided, much easier to control and rule.
yup, right up to when it comes back to bite them in the azz...
