Saying the US was a police state in 1980 is not true.
Saying the USA is a free country in 2025 is a lie.
Did the USA have mandatory masks, lockdowns, church closures, curfews, NSA wiretapping, checkpoints, forfeiture, the end to the right to silence, free speech bans, torture, kill lists, no fly lists, searches without warrants, private prisons, mandatory minimums, 3 strikes laws, DNA databases, CISPA, SOPA, NDAA, IMBRA, FBAR, FATCA, TSA groping, secret FISA courts, redlight cameras, license plate readers, and Jade Helm in 1980?

Was it really free in 1980? That was nine years after Tricky Dick Nixon killed the last of the dollar gold standard and unleashed full-scale global fiat rot.
A country does not need an average IQ of 130 to have freedom. The US was free in 1980 and did not have an average IQ of 130.

Maybe no one trust cops anymore because the Stasi have decided to work for the elites now instead of respecting the Bill of Rights.

I default to biology.
High taxes make the smart stop breeding.
Ethnic mixing, gene drift, and inbreeding contribute to genetic decay.
Loss of culture makes people centerless and inert.

Liberty, freedom, etc are to me a means to an end.
They are not ends in themselves.
The problem with the voters is (a) cowardice in peer pressure and (b) lacking the wiring to understand things.
You cannot raise IQ.
IQs of 130+ are required to understand most issues.

Everyone should have the rights guaranteed in the US Constitution. But that's up to the people in the countries around the world. They need to have their own peaceful 1776 and tell their governments they want guaranteed protected rights.
Freedom isn't free. We had to fight for ours.

This, I think, cannot be doubted by anyone. The interesting question for me is "why"?
Can the trend be reversed?
My non-scientific guess is that it is a composite problem composed of many things.
Social media and modern technology have turned us into hunter after instant gratification. It's teaching people to chasing dopamine highs, instead of hard work.

The government realizing that stupid people are easier to control than intelligent people are doing their bit to help by lowering the standard of education everywhere.
The woke mind virus is teaching us that objective truth does not exist and that the biggest minority calls the shots.
Audiobooks is making people forget how to read and how to think.

@monarchist @freepatriot Actually the people have voted against free spending many times but have been frustrated by the government almost every time
