In reply to the discussion: Re: Attacks on Snowden, Greenwald. How the fuck do people like that sleep at night? [View all]woo me with science
(32,139 posts)I have stared at this post for a day now agreeing with it and trying to come up with words that agree *enough.*
Yeah, it's the brazenness. It's OUR OWN GOVERNMENT standing up there smiling and having the gall to wave the flag while asserting what is antidemocratic and authoritarian and contrary to every value that we were taught this country was founded on. No, you don't have a right to A KEY TO MY HOUSE OR ACCESS TO MY PHONE.
I never thought I would see my country sink so easily to this level of criminal perversion. I keep imagining trying to describe where we are right now to a relative who died 20 years ago, and it's like trying to describe a dystopian novel. And then I keep thinking how the Germans must have felt in the late 30's.
It's an education for sure.
