If you have any doubt, just look at the owners of the WaPo and LATimes.
They have broken tradition since their founding: Presidential Endorsements?
Why? Because their billionaire owners are cowards and do not want to offend Trump. Both papers were set to endorse Kamala. If Trump wins, they expect retribution from Trump when he's President and want to avoid that, or worse, they want Trump to be President and so are withholding their editors' endorsements.
If you need more proof, just look at all the people who have been convicted so far of Jan 6. It's all the peons. Not one person who funded and/or orchestrated the failed coup has been convicted yet, including the head.
We didn't need Jan 6 to know this though. Just ask the uncountable number of people who have been wrongly convicted as part of the Prison Industrial Complex in this country. If you've got wealth, you have a get out of jail free card in your back pocket. These fuckers could shoot someone on 5th Avenue in broad daylight and get away with it.

It would be better if all the artists took their content off Amazon but that wont happen either.
