but don't they already have perfectly functioning drones for surveillance anyways? i thought it was a mix of that and 'Stingray'-type devices. Google and cell providers for triangulation and geolocation, or that thing where they find all devices/users in a given area and uncover identities for possible 'suspects'

you're not paranoid at all (well, i sure hope i'm not encouraging any sort of delusion in the event you are), this is fairly common, esp. given all the protests and the recent high-profile case

Question. Do you use, or have you ever used tumblr? This will help answer your question and I cannot tell you why. Your honesty is important.

Secular leader who turned from a social-democratic stance into a more gradually pro-privatization stance as she gained more power; alleged chemical attacks; has said something about Russia; thought of as disproportionately wealthy compared to constituents without solid proof; silly photos leaked

I don't think there's anything more unifying for veterans than shit talking the VA, honestly. Great intentions, awful execution.

That aside, I don't have the time to check rn, but is that speech from the guy from that one documentary "National Bird"?

Also, dark humor from a bygone era:

Have you ever seen that one movie "National Bird"? Far from apolitical, unfortunately. It's about some wistleblowers, documentary style. I believe at least one was under surverillance or had an issue with the FBI. I believe this is how I found out you can't discuss certain "national security" details even in therapy, and that you can be placed in a mental hospital if needed for OPSEC/NatSec reasons - but I could be wrong, that might be a different movie/documentary

I don't believe Trump's policy will be unpopular among Americans, that's the gist of it. It's all political and ideological with these types, so they're free to do whatever with the economy. Anyone thinking this Trump administration sounds contradictory or dumb or ineffective or goes against popular demand or will crash the economy, etc., are not thinking straight.

And besides, the type of people who would ever disagree with this sort of policy - those people are not 'true Americans'. They never had a voice in America and they never will, their opinions can be safely discarded whenever we talk about people like Trump or Reagan.

That's true, but it doesn't make the method any less effective. Did anyone in the middle class care that the Nazis failed to abolish capitalism and for the most part only went after small Jewish capital? Did Americans care when Japanese, Chinese, and black small businesses were torched or had their owners attacked?
