I mean, come on. *Of course* obedience is the goal of the ruling class, and "justice" (as defined by laws) is a bullshit narrative. It's always been that way in this country, whether we were busy genociding native peoples, grasping tightly onto slaves (still ongoing today, btw), colonizing lands (here and overseas), overthrowing democratically elected foreign leaders, or funding slaughter abroad.
It will continue for as long as we continue to accept it.
Maybe it's just the music I grew up with (ratm, public enemy, etc), but I feel like this kind of thing wasn't exactly hidden.
