Don’t worry, they’ll still use your data.

So better to just do nothing instead, aside from bitching on the internet, amirite?
No government is going to be perfect, but it’s never going to get better unless people actually do something instead of sitting on their ass and whining.
Ah, good ole’ “They’re all bad and there’s nothing we can do about it so might as well just sit on our asses as the world burns down around us instead of doing literally anything meaningful to help”
Such a classic.
I’d imagine they pass overhead in a similar way to that total solar eclipses do.
Think less of it as volunteering for a political party and more as volunteering for ideological pragmatism. You don’t have to have cloned sensibilities to work with someone or some organization to better your country/county/city.
Labour, like the Tories, are too far gone to actually fix any of the underlying issues we face.
The only way this is ever true is because people refuse to accept that change is possible. Even Tories could be reformed if enough people of conscience stood up and made their voices heard. Remote as that possibility is… it’s still a possibility.
The truly irredeemable only exist in fantasy, as a cheap source of righteous fury for the heroes. The real world is far too grey to accept such absolutes.
Don’t forget, any info you don’t believe is just government propaganda! Just like vaccines, the moon landing, and the spherical nature of the planet!
Weird that it was another one when it predated most of them…
Every technology has the potential to be abused. This isn’t even at the top of the worst offenders.
I would call it blown out of proportion when it was treated like an epidemic when it was little more than a few people who ever did it. Most just joked about it, and taunted the old fogeys who got bent out of shape about it.
You mean another fad that was blown out of proportion by one generation trying to prove the idiocy of another?
YES I TOO BELIEVE IT TO BE A COMPLETELY NORMAL PHRASE USED BY US AVERAGE HUMANS ALL THE TIME
BRB sewing my asshole shut.
Just because the increments aren’t in a straight line doesn’t mean they’re not still incremental.
Things that can not be replicated, or are too complex to replicate easily.
I’m sure, given enough energy and processing power, you could replicated just about anything… but if they already exist naturally, why bother? If it takes less energy to mine, or mix, or harvest latinum than it takes to replicate it, then replication doesn’t make sense for it. That goes for just about every other physical thing as well.
Doubly apt because he basically wins because everyone else explodes.
Remember remember the eighteenth of November.
That’s entirely the point. Instead of small problems that are consistent and easy to ignore, it was a singular event that’s much easier to focus on. That’s why so many politicians used it as an opportunity to consolidate power and enact draconian legal protections.
9/11 wasn’t just “bad thing happen” it was “big bad to distract from small bad”.
And affordable.
