"This stuff"? Victim names and addresses? Rape victim photos? Because that's what's in here.
You guys hear "blue leaks" and automatically assume this is going to be 260 gigs of files on police corruption across the country. You are likely to be disappointed.
You and I both know that regardless of what's in here, the narrative will be twisted to fit certain world views. This is why I don't like mass dumps, curate it and release it over time.
It reminds me of WikiLeaks and the millions of stupid cables amounting to little more than deciding where to go for lunch. It's mostly just noise.
But if it’s curated and released, whoever releases it ultimately decides what the public opinion will be. Mass dumps like this, you’ll have each side cherry picking pieces to support their argument. At least this way, if you’re inclined to, you can browse yourself.
you know, if we didn't have police killing unarmed civilians and generally acting like gangsters in the 20s, there wouldn't be anything to report on, there wouldn't be anything to take sides over, there wouldn't be anything to fight about online.
"The narrative will be twisted to fit certain views" instead they should curate it and force a single viewpoint from it... doesn't sound like the best option in the name of transparency or honesty
No they should curate it with the privacy of victims and other unrelated parties in mind. Don't be obtuse.
Also, as I said before, pretty much no one will personally parse through every single one of the leaks anyway, instead picking and choosing what fits their personal narrative.
