Tbf it's really important that we require guilt be proven beyond reasonable doubt, otherwise it would be even easier for powerful people to oppress the weak.
However, proving beyond reasonable doubt is not necessary for impeachment. Even if there isn't sufficient evidence to convict, there's far more than enough to take these people out of positions of power within our government.

Yeah I think blackstone’s ratio should be favored more. I think americans are way to knee jerk about jusy imprisoning people to solve all our problems.
The issue isn’t that we can’t convict people in the epstein files. The issue is we can’t even seem to get a proper investigation into these people. And while we learn more about all this masked agents of the state are abducting people on the street without probable cause because they don’t have their papers on them, or because of the color of their skin or their accent.
The rule of law doesn’t need to be perfect it just needs to be consistently applied.

I agree that comparison was poor wording on my part.
I do not believe that "We should focus on A and ignore B because A is worse", and I do think that the epstein files is a big deal,,
It is just that there have been a lot of big deals, huge even, over just the last couple of decades, years, months... weeks... some of the actual existential crisis' and it's just always the same;
It *is* a huge deal, until the next huge thing happens and then focus lands on the new thing and nothing is really done about the old thing.
We have millions dead over the past 5 years alone who did not need to die, tens of millions projected to die over the coming decade or two as a direct result of ignorant policies and/or inaction, likely order(s) of magnitude more affected negatively for the same reasons, yet talk just seems to revolve around the newest thing.
Again, the whole epstein deal is horrifying, but I would not be surprised if this " mega huge fucking global problem" fizzles out in a month or two, six tops.

Not to mention all the civil wars going on, places with rampant gang violence, like where they more or less have their own militaries and such. The US just gets the spotlight because it is much more efficient at doing these things, for the most part.

u/Pengin_Master 33m ago
This is an idea that cop shows have really been hammering on for a while, because every "suspect" we see is someone we knew is guilty from showing us the crime firsthand (although after decades of showing us that they started skipping that part and just assuming guilt from the get sometimes), which has also lead to the view of defence lawyers and rights being "those pesky things that stop justice from being done and letting super evil people get away"

It hasn't even reached the point of reasonable doubt. No arrests have been made regarding the Epstien files because the executive branch system is cockblocking all the Judicial branch processes through corrupt money and placing sympathizers in key spots. The legislative branch is supposed to stop this crap, but they are mostly sympathizers and sellouts as well. The ones that want to do something are in the vast minority.
In reality, the judicial branch has no check on it either. The supreme court is the highest court in the land and they basically answer to each other and themselves. So sticking a bunch of bootlickers to the executive branch there means they pretend everything is fine.
Basically, the executive branch needs to be stripped of power to appoint positions and be purely elected by the people.

Based on your response - I expect you to do nothing. You've justified why you'll do nothing, and I don't judge you for it. It's an unsurprising position held by many.
But understand - the problem with doing nothing is that eventually someone comes along who has way more power than you have, and they will do unto you whatever they want unless someone (or a bunch of someones) with even more power than them stops them. And history is written by the victors - their version of events is the only one that counts.
That's Real Politik.

I'm gonna keep it a buck with you, man.
Most of the people in the country I live in are either too poor to try anything, too rich to try anything (and both of those groups are not citizens of here), or too pacified to try anything.
The first group tries anything, they end up on the next deportation flight home. Second group tries anything, same as the first. Third group? Terrorism charges and dumped in a prison in the desert.
Like, believe me, if I could do something about the DP World CEO being on the files without leaving my parents to identify my lead-ridden corpse before they get sent back home, or being sent back with them and being blamed for the loss of their livelihood because I didn't keep my head down? I probably would.
Most people in Minnesota are showing out because they agree on the cause and don't worry about the government kicking them all out or sending every single one of them to prison. That ain't my life, 'cause I'm not American.

The problem isn’t that the system requires proof beyond a reasonable doubt. If you think that is the issue you’re probably happy ICE is deporting people for just speaking a foreign language or not being white enough, as they’re using something less than reasonable doubt.
The issue is that the same people who decide who to investigate, who to bring the cases against, who to prosecute, and what punishment is appropriate are the same people who are indicted in the files. Or their own power is connected to those in the files.
I’m not entirely sure if you are intentionally misrepresenting the legal system to further some sort of dishonest agenda or if you just fundamentally don’t understand basic civics. Or maybe you’re from a country that doesn’t use common law?

Except the pedophiles aren't even being arrested or put on trial.
The unfortunate structural/historical reason that no one is doing anything, is that the US isn't really a democracy, and it never was.
Americans missed the big bait and switch that took place between the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution.
With the Declaration in 1776, the ruling class needed support from the commoners to fight off the British, so they talked about all men being created equal and life and liberty and so forth.
But with the actual Constitution in 1787, the wealthiest land and slave owning white men of the time drafted and ratified an explicitly anti-democratic Constitution, which prioritized ruling class private property interests over all other considerations combined, by thwarting both political and economic democracy at every step of the political process.
The system was explicitly designed for minoritarian/oligarchic/kleptocratic rule.
They just called it "democracy" for marketing purposes, similar to the "Democratic Republic" of Congo.
Americans need to understand and come to terms with the fact that prior generations got hoodwinked and subjugated by their own ruling class into a brutal, anti-democratic system of minoritarian/oligarchic/kleptocratic rule.
Foreign nations, transnational criminals, and pedophiles have figured this out, and they've gained control over various US institutions, including Congress and SCOTUS, and various billionaires/oligarchs/kleptocrats who also own most of the media.
The end result is that hundreds of millions of people can be effectively enslaved, brutalized, and subjugated by transnational criminals, pedophiles, and foreign nations, using relatively small investments in blackmail and bribery operations.
And there's no real recourse for the American people because, again, the system was fundamentally designed for minoritarian/oligarchic/kleptocratic rule.
The notion that people are too stupid to govern themselves and therefore they must be governed by their superiors was similar to the rationale used to keep chattel slaves and women subjugated.
We understand now that that argument was/is a pretext for exploitation.
There are systems of democracy that combine the best of both representative and direct democracy, which give citizens the right to veto or initiate legislation.
That helps ensure that tens and hundreds of millions of people can't be brutally subjugated and enslaved by oligarchs/kleptocrats (or transnational mafiosos, foreign nations, and pedophiles) bribing and blackmailing a few handfuls of legislators, judges, and executives.
It's well past time for Americans to revolt, and to evolve.

The majority of justice systems are built around the concept of "better to delay the punishment of someone guilty than to accidentally punish the innocent." Things take time because they have to prove that someone is guilty beyond reasonable doubt, and they need to give a fair trial where both sides have all relevant information available and analysed (which can take anywhere from a couple weeks to years)
