Relax comrade...
Government control of you is for the greater good, after all.
I mean, without it, those evil conservatives might do something evil like save babies, create wealth, and restore liberty, or sumpin’...
The last two years living in the Soviet Union, I would often comment that they were becoming more free, while we were becoming more Soviet. And I was pretty much referring to the media at the time.
Now, our media is way beyond anything Pravda or Usvestia ever dreamed of becoming. I don’t think even Stalin or Hitler had such a boot licking following.
bttt
If you think its bad now leave Ostumbles in office for 3.5 more years.
Will Obamacare soon require everyone to have a cellphone as part of their "insurance" coverage? Ostensibly to help first responders locate us in case of emergency, but in reality to keep track of us.
Am I turning into a tin-foil hatter?
Our President grew up admiring the Soviets.
One thing they were excellent at was disinformation and propaganda.
I went to school in France with many young hip Germans. They got special pamphlets in the mail all the time that was the “true” news, better than mainstream, to them. They felt about these pamphlets the way I feel about FR now. They were written by people with German names, in a young, cool style, very counter culture to the parents’ staid capitalist German society. The overall basics my friends got from these tracts: communism has its problems, but it is better than capitalism. Superpowers are not great, but the USSR is far more benign than the USA.
I used to tell them that all that stuff was written by the Russians. They laughed at me and showed me the German writer names. Yeah, real hard to do with the DDR. I was of course vindicated. But maybe our pal Obama and his black Muslim influences early in life didn’t understand the communist Russia control of the black - and other- Muslim movement in the last 50 years. Or maybe he knows and approves.
