A Boring Dystopia

Land of the free, home of the brave, indeed. This attack on free speech will continue to get worse. The farther we let it go, the longer it will take to claw back any sort of legitimate freedom. Criticism should not be illegal, and designing and selling shirts like this is supposed to be an example of American freedom. We're about to have a new red scare (or are perhaps witnessing the first signs of the one we already have), this time with decades of social media content to scrape, facial recognition, and god knows what proprietary marketing "fingerprinting" data associated with our names/identity. The man who owns Tesla has made it clear he desires tyranny, and every one of those cars is festooned with cameras, roving, or sitting idle. Let alone operations like Waymo, driving around to wherever dispatched. Internet connected cameras on every street, our phones tracking our movements in real time, the internet of things, the privatization of legally protected security forces with no badging or oversight, arresting protestors, journalists, students, LEGAL CITIZENS. Make no mistake, they've raised the stakes already and this is not a game we can afford to lose.
