Can’t watch at the moment, but it oil, right?
In part, but also the eroding of rights like after 911
I’m starting to feel like if the rights were so easily eroded then maybe they weren’t rights in the first place.
I can see why people say that, but I disagree with the sentiment. If they weren’t rights then the erosion was not needed the actions could take place as it was not taboo or culturally sensitive. The fact it happened faster during 911 ignores that this was an opportunity to what was being done slowly over time, so it was not quite so easy.
