The world has gone mad

Today started as a good day. Although, by midnight, my world cam crashing down. Our world, came crashing down.
Ive known and understood the basics of how much control a government has over the population of that country. Third world countries can still rise up and fight against their government, with violence if need be. But with such an advanced world of technology, those people living in more economically developed countries have lost their chances of freedom. It is too late to strike back. It is too late to rise up. What we built is what will pull us down.
I knew about it. I knew this was the situation. All advanced societies live in a dictatorship, we just give it a different title now. A war that we forgot to fight has been lost. We closed our eyes and rested for too long. Now the realization is coming all at once, like a mad rush. A tidal wave, enveloping my existence, too late to run. To late to escape. death is inevitable, question is, will you see it coming. Will you know when its already got you.
I had trusted that even though we have lost control, we would not be taken advantage of. I trusted old sayings, old promises. That trust was misplaced.

sorry if this isn't pub material, maybe i shoulda posted it in the journal or whatever... but fuck it, im pubbin it!

na i agree. I feel the same...
funny that these feeling come pouring out when a website crashes.
Ive felt free, and ranted about my gift of freedom - but im starting to feel restrictions more and more in day to day life, getting piss tested at work, dress coded at school, scent free zones, singing a contract so they can monitor my phonecalls, drug busts, internet encryption, canada customs...
we're still lucky.

Getting out and voting Libertarian is the only solution. And getting the majority of the population who doesnt even vote to go out and get registered to vote must be done to.
I look at the congressional races in my area and it is really surprising how few people vote. We are talking about congressmen right now passing laws that only got a couple of thousands votes and maybe won by 500 or 600. It can be done.
Get involved!

you get a strong sense that something is not right with the world, yet you can't really pin it down, so you throw around a bunch of meaningless/useless cliches about totalitarianism and 21st century NWO crap.
Maybe you do yourself a disservice to sum up all your gut instincts in such a cop out sort of way...perhaps try thinking about it in a different way. maybe like, it's not the governments that are evil, it is human nature that is evil. during human existence governments have not always existed, but human nature has, and it's always led to death and horror in some form or another.

in terms of a target? one that has not killed, has no plans of killing, and will not assist in killing.

when you automatically think that anyone in the military kills innocent people, it makes you sound pretty ignorant.

yeah i said anybody, and the picture everyone was talking about was of a sniper, one of the more accurate, least likely to make mistakes type of soldier out there.
But nvm that, now you're saying everyone is guilty of friendly fire? that's just as silly. friendly fire isn't something that happens every single day or something...and besides soldiers getting hit by friendly fire are not innocent anyways..they're soldiers in a warzone and have accepted the risk of death. it's their job to killed and get shot at, so they are in no way innocent. It's one of the risks and they know it..no innocence there, just bad luck.
It's just ridiculous to make these huge leaps where you see a picture of a soldier and automatically think he probably just randomly kills innocents people..or to think he must be guilty of friendly fire. 
it's pretty disrespectful really, and that's not all...
