If by "one" you mean "you", maybe.
No-one is getting gulag-ed or shot for doing this. To liken this response to Soviet-era human rights abuses betrays a pretty myopic view, IMO.
- cryoshon 12y agoHey man, we have Gitmo and all of our black sites around the world. Human rights abuses happen there with 100% certainty and 0% transparency. Oh yeah, and we have the world's largest prison population by far. So maybe not a real Soviet style gulag, just a bunch of smaller gulag-like places to store our undesirables. Sure, it's not as bad as the USSR, but why is this sort of thing permitted whatsoever in a democracy again?
