I've been meaning to post this for a while. After reading some of the comments in u/KimJongUn's thread about the lack of any damning DS footage being leaked to the press, I figure now's a good time.

Some commenters have fallen victim to a line of propaganda that is commonly associated with anti-second amendment rhetoric: the idea that the average joe should be prohibited from witnessing, owning, or engaging in an activity due to its dark qualities, potential for danger, or simply because it's illegal.

To paraphrase a couple examples:

"They can't leak footage of the deepstate performing child sacrifices because viewing it would be illegal."

"We should prevent people from owning guns because they can be used to kill people."

Why are these statements similar? Because they both give evil the upper hand.

Whether or not you ban guns, criminals will continue obtaining guns.

Whether or not you prevent the exposure of the deepstate's crimes, the deepstate will continue committing crimes.

You think you impede evil with these obstacles, but in fact you have only crippled the good guys' ability to fight back.

This form of brainwashing can be traced back to a phrase they pushed on us all the way back in elementary school:

"An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind."

It's quite a masterful stroke of propaganda. It's fashioned in a way that just has an undeniable air of wisdom. You know how fortune cookies tend to sound really clever until you stop to consider their meaning, and you realize it's either gibberish or outright wrong?

Yeah, that's what this is.

"An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind."

Wrong. Here's how it really works:

Without an eye for an eye, only the wicked shall see.

Stop allowing evil to trample over you. We're not playing by the same set of rules. You follow the rules, they don't. We should take the time to really understand this aspect of life, or we will lose.
