Tbh man, our entire culture is basically a lie. We are beyond democracy. It’s like USA was compromised for a long time, but it’s just becoming obvious now because of all the ai, ice, and surveillance shit going on.

More like we’ve known, but it’s been more tolerable until recently. We got frog boiled, and are just realizing we’re cooked.
