RE: When defending our freedom there should be no middle ground.

in #freedom6 years ago

People may voluntarily give up some of their freedoms in favor of protection promised (not necessarily fullfilled); The core value of each individual is survival. Revolutions are not seen very often as seen for example in North Korea, where people would likely revolt if they were not afraid, despite, they don't know better world, I am sure they are aware that more liberty would actually be good to them. However, when the two core values - survival and liberty flip as restrictions to liberty lead to difficulties with survival, revolution can happen.

This is very simple theory anyone who pursues big regulations knows. If they endeavor them slowly, people will get used to a new definition of freedom and corporational state can be established.

As seen in China, people pretty like the new app, which is going to rate people by the opinions and give them some advantages if they agree with the policy. This app will be everywhere present including street cameras. I heard if someone with too low rating will walk past you on the square in 2020, he will be even projected on a billboard as a dangerous individual. Thus forcing all citizens to be good and agree with the ideology.

Other patterns are seen in US as bans to collect the rainwater. I doubt anything to happen about it in any of the already mentioned countries. Internet and blockchain makes us informed, but we are a few. And Chinese, as I have also mentioned, seem to be quite happy about the new app, which is being developed.

But perhaps, we might see something in the US. This country is bankrupt and it is only a question of time till its citizens will notice.

Anyway, thank you for a good topic for a discussion. Hopefully, I expressed myself understructably in English.

They must know that, because there are cases of north koreans escaping their totalitarian government.

Exactly mate! I have been researching that subject btw, article coming soon.

Yes, this is something ridiculous, almost like a joke.

And Chinese, as I have also mentioned

Are they really happy having their liberties restricted?

Thanks for your awesome comment mate!

Are they really happy having their liberties restricted?

I have heard they are positive about it. May they have expressed themselves like that because they felt threatened? I think so. But I guess sheeps agree with the app. It is just a few wolves who don't like it, because it is simply behind the line of what is appropriate. And it is always a small fraction of people, who realizes what is really going on (the case of escaping NK).
