Before I start my little rant, I want to speak to the liberals in the wall. I am not, nor have I ever been, a sovcit. Anarchists and sovcits share a resentment for these documents, but that's where the resemblance ends.

I'm a prominent union organizer within my industry (tech) and was recently extended the offer to travel to California to represent my union at a conference next month. I love going to union conferences, so of course I accepted. That's when I remembered that my passport is expired by a couple years, and I further realized that I don't have a real id. So now I need to get a new passport.

I decided that I want a passport card along with my book, because a card would be easier to carry for this conference. This shit is expensive! $130 for renewal, $30 for the card, and $60 for the expedited processing. $220 total. I fucking hate that I need to register with the government to travel. I fucking hate that I need to surrender my privacy to this fascist regime. I fucking hate that my only option for fast travel is by plane. I fucking hate borders.

That sounds like antifa talk. You aren't a child standing on a secret oil mine in need of bombing, are you?
