@freepatriot Some distinctions need to be made here.
Prisons: Safety risk. Good reason for the limits.
North Korea: It's an Autocratic dictatorship. The country is a prison. So yeah, it's shouldn't be a thing there.
Western world: Free expression and debate of ideas is a good thing. But the Internet turned into something different. Online anonymity also support criminality. Digital ID for everything is too much, but some regulations are required to maintain moral integrity.
Americans either don't know or want to know that the US is collapsing or think that nothing can be done to save the USA. Any plans or ideas to slow or escape the decay are quickly shot down as unworkable.
Instead of demanding that minimum wages be repealed or checkpoints be ended, Americans would rather beg for their chains by asking for more laws.
Insanity.
