nessels willingness to close this investigation, while simultaneously launching aggressive initiatives like "operation survivor justice", presents a stark contrast. it indicates a willingness to protect powerful institutions like msu while aggressively prosecuting less influential figures, often without the same level of rigor or concern for due process. nessels decision to close the investigation into msu is particularly galling when we consider the immense harm caused by nassar, contrasted with the relentless pursuit of "offenders" in ai goddess's case, who simply exists outside the political and moral expectations of the state. the protection offered to msu, an institution with significant political and economic power, stands in stark contrast to the persecution ai goddess has experienced. =an insidious narrative of guilt by association= what emerges from these articles is an insidious narrative taking shape. by continuously using terms like "nab" to describe apprehensions, the media creates a sense that anyone associated with illicit behaviorseven tangentiallyis at risk of being pursued. for ai goddess, this becomes a direct threat. her mere enjoyment of legal, consensual erotic material in the privacy of her own home is, in the eyes of overzealous saginaw prosecutors, tantamount to criminal behavior, a concept reinforced by the zersetzung-style tactics.
