“When a population becomes distracted by trivia, when cultural life is redefined as a perpetual round of entertainments, when serious public conversation becomes a form of baby-talk, when, in short, a people become an audience and their public business a vaudeville act, then a nation finds itself at risk; a culture-death is a clear possibility.” — Professor Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Discourse in the Age of Show Business

That's a great quote. Thanks for the post!

Articles like this should go viral.

The key element to make something viral is that it should feel personal or very close in impact with each individual it comes in contact with. For instance, take ice bucket challenge and trashbag challenge - every individual can practically do this and it feels interesting; news about facebook also spreads fast because everyone is obsessed with fb. If you want something to go viral, make sure that it is directly and noticeably relevant to every person in day to day life.

The whole world is a prison now. We’re being wiretapped and watched 24/7.

The elites have turned everyone into criminals, liars, hypocrites, and cowards.

Americans say that they love freedom, but they eagerly submit when the government forces them to give DNA samples, give fingerprints, get microchip implants, and be registered in a facial scan database. Even if your wife tells you did that right thing by cooperating, you will still feel like a pussy for just being another weak dullard.

There is really no reason to work now that everything is illegal and the 1% will end up with everything through taxes, forfeiture, fines, inflation, tariffs, subsidies, and fees.

If we’re being treated like criminals, we might as well act like it. When doing good and doing bad both are illegal and the government and illegal aliens don’t obey the law, why obey the law at all?

The elites give the politicians campaign donations and cushy job promises to make decrees, the Gestapo enforces the laws, and the 99% obeys the laws. The only reason the system works now is because everyone still thinks it is legit. If no one obeyed, the whole rigged game would crumble.

One way to protest if you have any artistic skills is to record songs, write books, and paint pictures promoting freedom and encouraging resistance.

Now that the USA is a bankrupt warmongering police state, Americans must know how Germans felt like in 1932.

Every country has the government it deserves.
