And I’ll tell you right now, if any of you who are willing to give up your rights had any experience as a regular person in a good, friendly dictatorship, you wouldn’t even consider “tightening your freedom belt” or however you offhandedly dismiss it.

Do you realize that the forefathers, before the revolution, had more freedoms than you do today?

“If you don’t have anything to hide why should it matter?”

Because the administration can now imprison you without trail, and monitor you at all times? Basically the administration has the power, whether you are using it or now, to police every action of yours whether it is illegal or not.

Let me spell it out for you:

You to buddy: “Boy, I sure don’t agree with this new bill.”
*Administration identifies potential enemy, and you vanish forever*

That might sound like an overraction, but it has happened hundreds of times around the world. Why will it be any different in America?

You dumbfuck, white, cheeseburger-fed Americans think that dictatorship is something that happens to non-whites on the TV.

Do you know how many democracies have become dictatorships over similar legislation? Nowadays, most.

Do you know why Juan Peron was the most beloved dictator in history? Because when he disappeared you he stayed disappeared.

Watch your TV and eat your cheeseburgers now, because eventually someone in a future administration will take advantages of all these “small sacrifices” and the US will become just another 3rd world dictatorship shithole. No more cheeseburgers for you when innocents are vanished just to keep the populace on their toes.

“Are you currently living here in our fine nation?”

I lived in your fine nation, some time ago. I now live about fifteen minutes north of the border. A quick click on the link and maybe a little MOAR LURKING would have told you that, and probably have spared you a tl;dr lecture.

In fact, if you’d have lurked more, you’d also know I’ve got degrees in history, and have had a lot of experience with the developing world. Again: You’d have nothing to worry about IF there was no such thing as corruption or abuse of power. But there always is, and it always results in the destruction of the economy and a descent into a corrupt third-world hell-hole.

But, it’s your country, you fuck it up, Paco.

By the by, I usually do my shopping in your impoverished near-dictatorship. I have three states sending me “newspapers” with names like “cross-border” begging me to spend my valuable currency down there. I hear you can feed an American family for a week for mere pennies now. What Tijuana was to you 40 years ago, the United States is to me now. Enjoy your internet arguments while you can, because soon blindly hading over your economic and civil rights to the corrupt and corruptible will just make you another shithole, and you will not be able to afford electricity and running water.
