  • You should really learn more about what exactly makes a country because unconditional freedom does not exist. You are part of a country that has laws and a bunch of freedoms. Those freedoms exist because other laws protect it.

    Almost every country is a police state rooted in murder and violence ruled by corrupted politicians.

    I do not deny that a lot of countries are becoming very authoritarian. But martial law is just a tool, which can be used for good but also for bad. In this case it doesn’t seem to be a good reason, but that does not mean it’s a bad thing by itself.



  • Not really. It’s good for a while when the freedoms of your country are being attacked by another country. It’s a way to get a country to be put on pause while military issues are being handled and everybody is supposed to work together in unison. What it’s not good for is to use it on local opponents or your own people. So just like any other weapon or tool it should be used correctly by people with good intentions. That’s what it’s there for anyways. Almost every country has a form of martial law.






  • Is this what democracy has become?

    It’s exactly the reason why I stopped playing OSRS. For those who don’t know, it’s an old MMO that allows people to “vote” on changes to the game. Except that if something doesn’t pass, they just change a few words around until it does pass. That’s not democracy, or even true voting.

    The choices are biased. It’s like asking why Hitler was a great man and keep getting people to vote until the result is “Yes, Hitler did great with the Volkswagen” and boom, a narrative is created by democratic vote. It’s a joke. And YET AGAIN I have to send a mass email to all 30 of my countries representatives in the hope to fix democracy from the ground up.

    Fuck you chat control.

    Fuck all the ones in favor and the ones who keep working on getting it passed.

    Fuck you.
