It hasn't hit yet.
The CCP hasn't come arrest me for speaking against a government official and the Saudi government hasn't arrested me for dancing and the Australian government hasn't arrested me for participating in a protest, etc...
One day soon all Americans will start facing consequences for even benign actions and then they will care.
- hilbert42 4y agoAbsolutely, like the frog in heating water, we'll realize the fact when it's too late.

- hilbert42 4y agoI know, donkey's years ago a teacher demonstrated the fact in the school's science lab much to the horror and chagrin of some students and to the gruesome delight of others. Within a few seconds the frog jumped out completly unharmed. No doubt today such experiments would be completely banned not to mention that anyone who dared tried it would experience the full wrath of Peta brought down upon him/her.

(Also, don't forget the US has extratraditial laws with punishment involving crimes of abuse and crimes of having unreported money in other countries [i.e. being american and working for a company+living in say the UK])
