Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

It is astonishing the lengths that Governments will go to to censor people ...

Governments exist for the betterment of the wealthy/corporations so I don't find this astonishing at all.  Actually, it's perversely encouraging.  If the internet wasn't working effectively to counter their propaganda/mind control, they wouldn't waste resources jailing/harassing these folks.  There are always casualties in every war.  What amazes me is that the human species has been fighting this same have vs. have not battle for how many centuries?  I might think that a reasonable resolution would have been reached by now.

They tried to assimilate me. They failed.

Which leads me to the question:  Will class warfare end before the biosphere degrades significantly?  Will this threat provide the incentive for people to work together, or will the "Eat, Drink, and Be Merry for tomorrow you die" mentality rule to the end?  I know Dick Cheney will never change.

They tried to assimilate me. They failed.

No, because super rich people will still think they can buy their way out of it.
