Isn't it weird how it is weaponized against political enemies but the one person everyone knows did engage in exploitation was protected for decades?

I don't think that's weird.

Those people are not political enemies, they're allies for whatever regime and their support is important.

Better to keep someone powerful in your pocket than to oust them and let someone uncorruptible or uncompromising assume the power vacuum.

No one is “ uncorruptible or uncompromising”. They just have to start looking from scratch.

There are many people who are incorruptible or uncompromising, we usually dislike them.

Maybe "not sympathetic" would prevent me from being nerd sniped. :)
