    Oh gee shocker it looks like those of us who tried to sound the alarm during the Bush and Obama years that these laws and these surveillance systems could be and would be turned on us were right all along!

    It fucking sucks being right all the time. I can’t even get any enjoyment out of being able to say “I told you so” because most don’t even remember being told fifty fucking times.

    I think a lot about the day I argued with my coworkers that if we allowed Bush to give Hank Paulson a cool $700 billion to bail out the banks no strings attached that we were just kicking the can down the road and the economy for regular folks would suffer over time because we enabled bad behavior and taught banks that as long as they were too big to fail they would be bailed out by taxpayer money. I wonder if any of them even remember being told what obviously has come to pass as the lower classes have been increasingly hollowed out during the time since then.

    I just can’t even anymore living among all these fucking dimwits who aren’t even paying attention and just drifting through life like none of this even matters. I’m not smart enough for everyone else to be this fucking stupid.
