“Does the Bureau even care about correcting this impression?”
No, the treatment of the January 6th protestors made it clear we’re living in “The Hunger Games”, and the usurper gubmint is determined to stifle dissent through fear.
They really couldn’t make it more clear.
The Bureau is perfectly aligned with the way the democrat communists think. They are the new NKVD ( Peoples Commissariat for Internal Affairs.
Gotta blame the right for not making a huge issue out of it too though. Not many Republicans even took the time to demand answers, or to even go see what the political prisoners were going through. A few did, briefly, but not many. Most are content letting them rot away in prison for simply being Invited into the Capitol building by police. Here is no republican committee to investigate, not even any suggestions to do so except by a few. Every republican in congress should make this their top,priority considiering the seriousness of the maltreatment of these mostly,peaceful protestors. They should be so vocal about it that the msm is forced to cover it, but Instead we don’t hear diddly about it
