It's kind of like a slippery slope thing. I think people are just afraid of it turning into like a streaming dystopia 24-7 monitor. I will say in this situation, even though I'm not happy with that technology and all that stuff happening, you know, it was a... it was a good thing. I guess. You just can't trust the police, but it's all we got to sort things out. And to be honest, if our legislative body actually protected us and we had rights, we probably wouldn't have such a negative opinion of police. But the people in office are either too self-interested or too old to even open a PDF.

depends on the use case and the device.

I mean to these people see children as kind of like a numbers game so give it a year or two and they'll just keep popping out more children and rolling around the floor, talking in tongues praising Jesus.

Poor people acting fancy calling garbage food. Yet after a joint at 3am I would fuck with it. Ever try ketchup and peas?

I worked at a place that had consistent mandatory overtime. I never saw the outside of the factory except to just sleep and then go back again. There was no upward advancement whatsoever. And it was completely unsafe where people would eventually snap and sometimes have to be dragged out by the private police that they hired. Also, when you enter the place, you go through turn styles. Almost as if you're in prison or something. The people that normally want to bring manufacturing back to America are the people that have like a 1950s view of the world. But working in a factory in modern America, it's not really appealing because of how you're treated and you actually get a really low pay. You have no protection under the law. Especially if you're living in a right to work state. And everyone around you is toxic. Thinking that one day their ship will come in, they just need to step on your neck. And I didn't puss out and I saw people come and go and I even worked my way up to different positions. I didn't want to be like the guy getting dragged out and my health was declining so I quit that shitty job and I'll never do it again.
