      The Conservatives (big C) have always been like this. But lately they’ve gotten an undeserved confidence boost from the likes of Trump, and the GOP in general and their “reality is what you say it is” attitude to politics. The idea they could just outright lie about stuff hadn’t really occurred to them prior to that point.

      So that’s for that Americans.

        I think you are missing the point. A lot of these laws are bipartisan. What we are seeing is the slow increase in tyrany.

        Don’t believe modern news sources. They will only remote news that supports there political agenda and they are nothing more than propaganda machines at this point

      Ingsoc is here. It’s just more dull and pervasive and creepy than the flashy story version.
