That hits so fucking hard. I feel that, deep deep deep down inside my soul.
America has spent the last couple of decades building prisons. They have recently accelerated the process, and thrown up huge confinement centers. There's plenty of room to house all the boisterous dissidents.
Then look at my comfortable life. The electricity is on, the water is clean, the roof doesn't leak, I'm using the internet to speak my mind. There's a Walmart around the corner.
What's the point in throwing a rock at a window, figuratively speaking? Why be the first lemming off the cliff?
Now, when those services are interrupted, people WILL take notice. Rolling blackouts and internet interruptions will get people off their asses. But unfortunately, until that happens on a massive scale, most people will look out for themselves and ignore the big picture.
