Modern democracies want arbitrary lockdown privileges and the freedom to forever 'track and trace' people using public health as the excuse? Color me shocked.

Color me shocked.
I guess 'terrorism' has lost its luster in the eyes of the military industrial complex. Now we have to pivot to 'domestic terrorism' and 'public health'. Like an overactive immune system, our war machine has no more enemies to fight and now must turn on itself.
- clairity 6y ago> "Modern democracies want arbitrary lockdown privileges..." that's arbitrarily specific. any state wants power, and lockdowns are exhibitions (and also legitimizations) of power. the 'democracy' or 'modern' specifics add no additional information. what's more interesting about the 'modern democracy' bit is that power has found a way to subvert masses of people collectively in our modern democracies, and that's something, as citizens, we should be wary of and thinking deeply about.
