holy fucking shit that's horrid. I'm so sorry you had to deal with that

you're right, possibly even a minimum of 15

IIRC he said Universal health care is like the only option. I could be wrong but from what I remember

We understand that you don't trust any of us, so we're going to all get together to make something new you can trust even less!

That's cuz it's not for the kids, any time they want to shoehorn in some stupid bill, it's always "for the kids" or "for national security", so when people rightfully oppose a massive invasion of privacy, they can say "They hate the kids look!".

It's a lot easier to defend "Protecting children" than it is to defend what they're actually wanting to do. If this actually goes through, I honestly probably would just drop off posting things online. I've been off Twitter and Facebook for a long time, I left reddit over the 3rd party apps, honestly I just don't care anymore, I will oppose this 100%, but if it gets passed, I guess I'm just done posting lol

If you grow up in an echo chamber, libertarianism can seem like the best option. Growing up my understanding of things other than capitalism/status quo was "the cold war was a thing that happened". So like when I started to break away from my parents politics, I went under "libertarian" cuz my thoughts were, the government should leave you alone, and I didn't understand anything on the other side enough to genuinely agree or disagree with it. If you've heard of the Overton window, it's kinda like a personal Overton window, what is an "acceptable political option" to you. It's hard to break that shit, but it's possible, I can see how people get there, but there is a clear path out usually.

I THOUGHT IT WAS A MEME UNTIL THIS POST

Oh god you're right and I hate it

Wait who thought he was cool??
