    No worries, and take heart. There’s plenty of us here that are ready to “…hoist the black flag, and start slitting throats”, we’re just waiting for some of the others to catch up. If nothing else, Americans have traditionally been slow on the uptake, but quick to adapt once the last vestiges of comfort are perceived to be fleeting. At least that’s the hope I personally cling to.

      Ha! Good luck with that. If it’s not even too late for direct action in whichever direction. Also would not say those thing publicly, even if it’s Lemmy. Unless you’re adequately secured in the Backend. You can never ever be TOO careful 😉

        Fair enough.

        It’s really too bad we live in a world where even quoting words from a 1930’s Boston satirist, to make a metaphorical and illustrative point, could be remotely construed as an act of violence.

        Oh, would you like at that! We’re already back to the “unprofessionally childish” bit again! 🤣

          lol, true. But we’re all scanned deeply, you americans down to the bonemarrow as you got even less rights to privacy…But you can never be too sorry, but you can once be too little. Even a paranoid can actually be followed :)
