The UK is a good example.

Newt neutrality doesn't work on bug ISPs

Big*

Governments start small and then grow and become abusive until they fall or get destroyed.

Fucking auto correct

That's been the pattern for all of modern history.

All the big ISP gotta do is "here is some money, don't imply it unto me"

Yeah but America is resilient. I don't think we're going to get blasted by this.

Get blasted?

It's already happening.

I am horrified by what activist judges are doing to the US legal system.

Okay, do I have to be uber specific for you? I don't think we're going to get into a crazy hot civil war were we're going to fall into a fascistic government

Political discourse is soo poor right now it almost mirrors that of the Weimar Republic

The erosion of due process is terrible.

And every few decades we have another moral panic that seems to forget everything about the one prior.

It's the Salem Witch Trials, the Satanic Ritual Abuse Panic, MeToo - we have the memories of gold fish.

As long as TDS keeps growing, there will be a hot Civil War

I don't think so.

The fed is too strong.

Even if the civil war goes hot, it's going to be put down fast by right wingers who own like 300% of all the guns in the US

The lefty types are not big

We have the military to police the entire world - our civilian population doesn't have a chance.

Feds always win - no matter if it's left or right.

guaranteed

And for the folks who think the military is going to side with the population - think again, sunshine.

***Cough cough*** 1776

If police or military would grow a conscience when laws are absolute cancer, they would have risen against things like the drug war or vietnam

The military won't cooperate with the fed to destroy the rights of its citizens

It ain't 1776 no more.

You just said it's guaranteed that the fed always wins

That's why I am saying that governments always grow.

I'm showing a counter example

Too much power is centralized now.

I just realized something

1776 was a very different scenario.

Tim pool always wears that beanie, what is under it?

another beanie

That's a dead meme

I'm being serious

Yeah so was everyone 5 years ago
