Until there's no more oppression, human trafficking, etc in the world, the USDOJ and other police forces need to get their priorities straight. You've got streets full of people OD'ing during a world wide opioid crisis, and this is how the USDOJ decides to allocate their resources. As a population, we need to do a better job of holding these orgs to account to this, through our voting and decision making. God damn do we need to stop allowing our legal systems and enforcement being glorified butlers to these mega corp media combines.

They know their priorities. Profits > People.

The police, regulators and politicians all work for corporations now. The people are only a means to power, nothing more.

This seems to focus heavily on Brazil-based operations. But it is sad to hear. I hope these service voids can be rapidly filled elsewhere.
