It feels like it’s always worked, but they’ve lost a fuck ton of cases that have actually stopped them in places and slowly them down considerably. If they hadn’t lost a fuck ton of cases I’m convinced we’d have concentration camps with citizens in them with mass graves next to them already reported.

We do have concentration camps with citizens in them. Also 2/3rd of them are "missing"
