Camera-traps were certainly possible, hmmm, any idea when they were invented?
Impractical, then, of course.
I don't think surveillance cameras meaningfully augmented centralised power until the proliferation of cheap storage. AI stepping that up, again...

If it carries even a whiff of tyranny, oppose it.
WTF?
Those who say Americans were proud to get food stamps in 1970 are wrong.
Surveillance cameras didn't exist in 1920.

I'm pretty sure USSR's surveillance cameras got stripped and scrapped by krokodil-junkies along with everything else in the 90s.
That's what it would take, but I think that's far from impossible...

It’s time to invalidate governmental laws, tactics and policies that are illegitimate, egregious or blatantly unconstitutional.
Nullify everything the government does that flies in the face of the Constitution.
Flood your representatives’ phone lines, inboxes and townhall meetings with your discontent.
The Deep State wins by ensuring that we are censored, silenced, muzzled, gagged, zoned out, caged in and shut down.
It wins by monitoring our speech and activities for any sign of “extremist” activity.
It wins by ensuring that we are estranged from each other and kept at a distance from those who are supposed to represent us.
It wins by saddling us with taxation without representation and a government without the consent of the governed.
You would be naive to think that surveillance cameras will be dismantled and NSA wiretapping
infrastructure will disappear in the future.
You can't talk to anyone now because everyone talks in code.
What the fuck does Taco, Kraken Party, Diapers, and AIPAC even mean?
Does anyone speak English anymore?

No way is Australia (or NZ) economically-freer than the USA or Germany, that's hilarious.
Methodology must be "what selected State Department employees feel about this country".
We not freer than anywhere in EA / SEA, except Myanmar and DPRK.
#Australia's "Economic Complexity Index" sits between Mali and Uganda, and our entrepreneurs and inventers flee to USA / Singapore / PRC as soon as they get funding to commercialise (a few eccentric holdouts notwithstanding, mostly in Defence or similar protected industries).

Wow.
Americans say being killed by the government is not scary at all.

Were Indians dangerous in 1870 because they had brown skin or were Indians dangerous because they didn't like having their land stolen?
What we are now experiencing is not simply a partisan power struggle. It is the weaponization of the machinery of government for compliance and control.
If the president refuses to be held accountable, insists his power is supreme, abuses the power of his office to wreak havoc and revenge, reduces our republic to rubble, tramples the Constitution, and disregards the rule of law, he is aligning himself with every despot, dictator and tyrant to have walked the earth.
We’ve been here before. We know how this story ends.
When any politician suggests that you relinquish your freedoms—of speech, assembly, due process, association, etc.—in exchange for promises of greater security, you’d better beware. Your freedoms will be next on the chopping block.

When the president threatens other nations militarily, talks openly about seizing foreign lands, stirs up international tensions, rattles the war drums, and then claims wartime powers at home, that is government weaponized against peace, liberty and constitutional restraint.
Will you regret not warning people about the dangers of
tyranny when you
get sent to the concentration camps?
