Dissent in America?
Where? Dissent in America has been corraled into the internet, with plans being hatched to destroy even this last outpost. I forward the thought that because of a lack of real dissent, the regime is comfortable and it machinery is in place to shift into a more fierce assalt on democracy.

The enemy has at the helm the supermen of democracy destroyers. The media has become their instantaneos microphone to dispatch lies. Any and all opposing sounds are ridiculous. The paid mouth breathers are calling for the fringe to become violent against all "terrorists" as they describe "terrorist" as against the neo-statis.

When will there be dissent? When will we be driven to break? I'm confident that what we are seeing is the seedling of fascism, and the full force is yet to come.

1. There is dissent. It's just underground.
In the Soviet Union, the government could scare people into obeying its authority, but it never could get the people to love the government.

2. Maybe Net Neutrality IS a good thing!
If they unplug us, maybe we'll take to the streets ;)

(I'm joking, of course)

4. The 60's wouldn't have been what they were if the internet was around.

3. Dissent is being treated like all of * crimes - the MSM and the gov't
just ignore it and it goes away.
