"I don't care if they have all my data. I don't have anything to hide"

Yeah, that only works for people who are brainwashed to follow whatever the current regime is pushing regardless of how much it hurts them personally, but especially if it doesn't hurt them directly in the very short term.

First everyone always does. Second there is always a chance you do want to hide with a regime change.

Yes, but you can ALWAYS have links to Hamas. All it takes is having a friend on FB that said Free Palestine once.

But complaining that this year there is no tourism in the US

Repeating history in a creepy way. only changing names: Miller instead Goebbels, ICE instead of SS ...

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

Damn that's such an insult to Goebbels.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That's not realistic. They'd never use real names like "Bobby".

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Yes, it would be some tacticool edgelord callsign like "Viper" or "Terminator".

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

i literally know of a person who was a pedophile that went by 'Viper' of course it was also a script kiddie

thats "operation brother sam" and "operation big stick". or "monroe doctrine" nowadays (1980s+) i think? the us's role in it is severely understated in the article so keep that in mind. mostly so usians can get fat off our food while we starve.

the movie is good, and id recommend it, but favelados still live that reality to this day and the burgeoise-funded movie aint showing the actual reality and terror of it.
