Let me be a free man, free to travel, free to stop, free to work, free to trade where I choose, free to choose my own teachers, free to follow the religion of my fathers, free to talk, think and act for myself. - Chief Joseph, Nez Perce
It must be devastating to be American and come to that conclusion.
And it's not my business what happens inside the US, but it seems like the rope is tightening when it comes to free speech and particularly the ability to protest in America.
Gradually more surveillance, censorship (allegedly to protect against terrorists and pedophiles, the "witches" of our era) domestic drones, the PC thought control concept and military equipment to local police is being introduced.
Paranoia or the path to 1984? Do we dare to wait and see?
Same thing in Europe, not far behind the US.
It's a bit like when you put a frog in a pot of water and gradually increase the heat. Because the heat rises slowly, the frog doesn't realise what's going on, and before he knows it he's boiled alive. But if you throw him straight into the boiling water, he'll jump out because he figures out that something is wrong. When the facts are undeniable, it will be too late to do anything about it.
As it is now, only a few can put the pieces together and look at development with a 10 year perspective, instead of 1 week.
I think we're on the way to a fascist dictatorship with meaningless elections, and that we are halfway there already. The US is leading the way, but Europe is not far behind. Europe used to be the creators of political ideas and unique movements. Now, it looks like we are following the pied piper into our own destruction.
A few years ago a Russian political analyst (I forget his name but I'm sure people here know who I am talking about) predicted that there will be civil war in the USA. Every week now I am more convinced he is right about that. But even worse.......I believe civil war for the USA is even necessary now. US government is a "captured operation" and has been for some time. So yes it is devastating. We will have either civil war or within a few short years the US will not exist as we know it and be blended in with Canada and Mexico. Those people who are still trusting the mainstream news (all of it) will know nothing about all this.
