"Abe Lincoln may have freed all men, but Sam Colt made them equal." "you are not immune to the propaganda you see. you are, however, immune to the kind of propaganda they see." the powerful must always exist at the behest of the governed. such is one of many prices for power. part of me can't help but think about the militarization of the police, and how anyone can drive their APC's and operate their sound cannons or whatever, if only they possessed the keys and training.

Perhaps some-day in the future, but I fully intend to live to see our day of triumph, so... Peace is off the table. And frankly, civil war is the best out of all of the bad options for everyone involved, even them. We get to avoid genocide. We get to unite for a common cause - the shining torch of liberty. They get to burn their violent and reckless youth on war, while also eating their own tail and consuming their weak, their downtrodden, and their poor. obviously we're on the right side, and they will begin to realize that eventually. We must not fall into barbarism, but frankly I'm not concerned about that.

Which means that everyone knows what you buy on Amazon or which forums send you messages... So if you want to keep your posts secret, you should use encryption - such as gpg, for example. Actually, wouldn't that solve the problem that @user-78 is talking about? Just, build encryption into everything. Ah, nope, wouldn't work, just realized that public means public, and you can't encrypt a public post. Well, you could, but then it's no longer public, just noise transmitted on a public channel. Idk. My opinion is that the fediverse is (and should be) like email. Like skywriting. If you mark something as public, it should be seen by anyone who wants to see it. It's an opt-in option.
