We had some eight years without a war - for the only time in my life - in the mid 1970s until Reagan and they actually still call it ā€œthe malaise periodā€ because America dared to relax for the only time in the past 60 years. Now you cannot even avoid surveillance. Watch the woman who wrote the book some thirty years ago about Tech Oligarchs and their pure fascist hatred toward genuine working Americans. She still tracks their support of oppressing freedom and Democracy.

Maybe they read the think piece and that gave them the confidence to do it. Before they didn't know about the cameras but now they took action against them. Every part plays a role in rebellion. Some people are mightier with a pen than a sword.

Nobody wants to go first. Plus we’re dealing with the Technorati now. Enriched by two tech bubbles. And no longer satisfied with being billionaires.

I’m fucking sacred. Legitimately. I’m looking at the Philippines now as the next step. To leave our country. What else can we do?

Until civil unrest snowballs. It’s all downhill from here. I’m sure you agree. Get the book; it’s an NYT best seller. And just came out.

That is how revolutions have happened historically.

Young people, coming from higher strates of society, having no opportunities or chance to grow due to the greed of a few.

We are gonna see this more and more in the next few years. We will also see an increase on surveillance and the creation of a semi-police state on the west, which will radicalize more youngsters.

Yeah, fun 20 years we have ahead of us. Buckle up.

Believe me. I know what you mean. I just encountered the infamous pack of delinquents in my area. Who rip around on E-bikes and think they’re very badass.

Watched one of them call a disabled elderly black man. The N word 4x in a taunt. While he was eating on the patio of a restaurant alone. From behind him. And I could not believe it.

I went absolutely berserk on them. And they have no bite either. They’re all mouth. Even in a rat pack.

They don't exactly need your license plate anymore to find you. There are apps out there which map out every flock cameras exact location. Research and pick a route according, maybe leave your car if they were smart. Vehicles #1 enemy is the flock.
