In the West I would say it feels paranoid, but in certain east Asian or Middle-eastern countries (that will remain nameless) I wouldn't ask questions in the first place. Thankfully I'm in the former.
- seba_dos1 4y agoThere are still some places in the general West where law enforcement's reputation isn't completely ruined yet, but it certainly isn't a rule.
- asow92 4y agoRight, it's not perfect, but I know where I'd rather be.
- Kye 4y agoYou sound like you're not part of any marginalized, surveilled, or abused communities. Police in some places still arrest people for violating state level sodomy laws even though the SCOTUS ruling nullified them. No, this is still very much a problem here in the West.
- asow92 4y agoThat's obviously not good and we should speak up when these things happen because that sounds unlawful. The point is that we have the freedom here to stand up and say that, and in other countries you wouldn't even have that much. It could be a lot worse.
