"Big Brother" isnt protecting YOU
its protecting its own systems which it has designed your life around. the roads and schools, factories, farms, oil rigs, and infinite cubicles at infinite offices.
Big Brother is only ever protecting the version of you it tried to create.
@exiliaex Imagine using the big brother analogy saying this omfg! "Don't worry we are doing the thing the evil totalitarian government in 1984 did but we promise its for your own protection" what an absolute joke. It's funny that Watch Dogs the shitty ubisoft video game is somehow a cogent critique of this policy
@exiliaex if big brother is protecting me, then it is protecting me from big brother and the consequences of big brotherism. This has always been the modus operandi of the state. Protection rackets, since time immemorial
@exiliaex oh god. he unironically did the meme:blobnervous:
@exiliaex eric adams just straight up saying The Thing About Big Brother is so amazing. no irony, no self-awareness, "big brother" has no context or meaning anymore, these brainless wealthy jackasses can just say whatever the fuck they want and the press prints it unquestioningly. 21 years after 9/11 and they're still trying to convince us that the next one is always already just around the corner, only this time it'll be, like, a homeless guy double-fisting fentanyl & weed with an anarchist
