A dystopia is fictional.
This is reality.
Pretty sure most of us thought the point of all the dystopian fiction like 1984 was to move the away from this shit, and we’re just emotionally grappling with how wrong we were

Even agreeing with that I am pretty anti all that religious bullshit these days so I’ll often go by atheist, but you’re damn right it isn’t the whole of my identity or that of anyone else who isn’t religious.
Let’s get to the point where we categorize people by humanist, individualist, tribalist, or cultist dipshit and see how they all like being called a-rationals
And sadsacks is just a term for people who don’t study the perfect life form: unicorns!
Defining someone by the negation of their oppressors label is pretty fucking offensive.
It’d be like calling native Americans the NotWhites. It defines them by a metric they didn’t care about.
Not really. More like coming out as Human (as opposed to those who’ve deluded themselves into believing they are more than that)
Sounds about right
Religions actively encourage harassing “questioning” family members
Exactly. Atheism is the label cults use to pretend not believing in bullshit is just “another belief” like their believing in bullshit
Or like believing in Santa clause when you’re 73
You too!?
Always had trouble deluding myself, even when I tried.
Till I realized that’s what I was doing, anyway.
Not to mention Epstein was able to operate freely for decades while flying out high priority definitely-surveilled-at-all-times targets out to rape kids
Make no mistake, intelligence agencies are every bit as complicit as Epstein himself, and they don’t give a flying fuck about “protecting” kids
And oh darn, didn’t you know the only solution is permanent extension of and expansions to all the patriot act bullshit that has been violating our civil liberties constantly for 20+ years?
Shucks. Welp, if it’s “for the children” or whatever excuse they use this time, I guess we have no choice!
Using weak examples and how they are better served in a different way doesn’t mean much
With push data like this you can identify something like every other member of an encrypted group chat by correlating the push notification metadata
They are demanding this for a reason
