Every government is at best a glowing ember of Power, in the sense Tolkien used the term.
Power attracts psychopaths and sociopaths, who soon outnumber decent people in the Power structure.
Power is more addictive than heroin; almost no one in Power wants to give it up.
Power creates the fantasy even in decent peoples' minds that it can be used for good.
Power can NEVER be used for good in the long term, because it consists of sanctioned and initiated coercion, which is a major human evil.
The only long-term safe answer is CIVIL SOCIETY, where governance, regulation, defense, and EVERYTHING ELSE is done without initiating coercion against innocents. See The Market for Liberty for detail.
Here's Tolkien (who wrote Lord of the Rings between the World Wars) describing power:
(Gandalf, backing away from the Ring) No, Frodo.
(Frodo) You must take it!
(Gandalf) You cannot offer me this Ring.
(Frodo) I'm giving it to you!
(Gandalf) Don't tempt me, Frodo! I dare not take it, not even to keep it safe. Understand, Frodo – I would use this Ring from a desire to do good . . . [long pause] . . . but through me, it would wield a power too great and terrible to imagine.
(Dialogue above is from the film version; the text in the book may be different).
Nothing I hate or despise more than power hungry people. So easily corrupted for a tallent of gold.
CDC redefined the meaning of misinformation. The DHS put out a memo anyone putting out misinformation is a domestic terrorist. Shut your mouth, or else.
DHS isn’t going to do shit just like they aren’t going to do shit with the border. Fuck them.
I agree, the sheer logistics of rounding everyone up is going to be an issue and then you have the problem of when society breaks down, all the police and military saying fuck this, I need to go home and protect my family. That's why they have to pull the plug and do a cyber attack.
Power corrupts... Absolute Power corrupts absolutley... John Emerich Edward Dalberg Acton... ☕☕☕

Yeah, don’t worry - I have my eyes glued on these motherfuckers with utter distain like Gran Torino’s Walter Kowalski. The very entity I honorably worked for has poisoned my misinformed wife at the time and I suffer the burden and now divorce.
Get off my lawn.
Not government itself, just bad or corrupt government. Some form of government is needed to prevent anarchy.
True, yes. I immediately thought of our current "representation" when saying that. We need very limited gov't for structure, not this bloated beast that preys on us and the world.
Well said! Perhaps some normies will at least pause and think to themselves, “wait... what?... hmmmm”
Funny how the fate of the trucker convoys disappeared from the news fucking overnight. Amazing!
