Let’s see you do next month with no money squeezing you into conformity. We already know they think/ want us to be too stupid to think for ourselves and so as to just accept what they spoonfeed us that much was evident with the vaccine It doesn't benefit the government or the corporations that own them to have them stop people spending money. No matter the reason. Regarding the vaccine, everyone I know who didn't take it, is just walking around fine, not in jail, at their work, whatever. Yes there was a lot of pressure and unacceptable coercion tactics into getting people to take it, but if you really didn't want to, you didn't have to for the most part. Governments/corps already own us, where we have small amounts of power is where we choose to spend our money, where we choose to withdraw our labour, that's it. Link to comment

patrick bateman Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Lot of hypocrisy in this wee discussion. I like cash so I don't have to pay tax. Also I like to have my handout for government money funded by taxes... Odd. It's not the money you are spending they care about it fyi, it's the data. The more they know about your patterns the better. But that ship sailed with phones in everyone's constant possession. Link to comment

Infinite scrolling apps and pages should also be banned or limited. I agree. It's nuts. Nobody is impervious to it, it's designed to penetrate our brains. I'd ban all sorts of adverts. Gambling would be one, has the potential to ruin peoples lives and it's absolutely rammed down the throat of working class football fans. Should be treated like cigarettes and booze. Like if a betting app notices someone is just pouring money in and losing big, they should have a responsibility to stop that. Just IMO. Link to comment

We were talking about how the World Wide Web has evolved over the past 23 years or so ( think I first got online in 1999). Be interesting to see how it further ‘develops’. It'll just get worse and worse. Constant marketing, advertisement, demanding access to your data. When dystopia comes, if it hasn't already, we won't even know. The Huxley POV. Ruled by the things we love. Link to comment

There is a brilliant John Oliver bit on it, likely on YouTube, worth seeking out. Link to comment

Seems to be the way to go, to be able to access films, fitba' and streamin' shit from out with the UK. I sometimes get error messages when tryin' to watch a film for example 'Not available in your region/country.' Plus I suppose there's allegedly a much lesser chance of your personal data bein' highjacked, better security etc. You gonna advise me different? I dunno, I'm keen to learn. Link to comment

There’s tons of VPN’s about for streaming .I don’t really watch that much tv to be honest so not too sure on them. Yer Boof is the man for that kind of thing .

I'm not holding them up as a good guy, it's just funny they aren't afraid to call America out on their bullshit. The first 3 points I agree with, but the Uyghur Muslim thing isn't cut and dry. There's very little actual evidence of it happening. Not to say it categorically isn't, but you'd need a lot more evidence to convince me. Link to comment
