We begged them to come violate our privacy to make sure there were no terrorists under our beds. The visionaries warned the idiots that if we support and allow them to do this that someday WE will be the terrorists they are looking for.

Well here we are... It was stupid as hell. And... We did not learn one thing from it, we are still biting the bit everyday to sacrifice ourselves to the very same scams. Banning TikTok, Requiring two forms of identification to view ALL websites, etc. We are trading all our liberties and making ourselves slaves “to keep us safe”.

At some point history and self reflection really needs to come into focus or we will just keep repeating it over and over with the same self ignorance. We need to adnit we made a mistake and try not to make the same mistake again. If we don’t we have only ourselves to blame period. We get what we ask for and then don’t like what we got.

How about we stop and think about it and just don’t make the mistake in the fist place...

Too many people don’t think to any depth. Those who don’t know history, particularly the history of our Nation’s founding, are prone to making grievous mistakes with respect to governing philosophy. Worse yet, they don’t take those matters seriously or consider the impact of poor choices upon the future.
