On my way to today's march to demand restoration of the 4th amendment, I saw Mayor 1% parading with the military in the orgy of terrorism celebrated on the 4th of July. But standing with the many patriots and citizens at Washington Square, I also saw a single member from the listserv.
Despite the silence about anything of importance here in the hood, I truly hope there are a few thoughtful citizens in the neighborhood and on the list, who are ready to wake up and join the living!
There is the usual swirl of 24 hour bullshit in the corporate media about the harmless surveillance of all the happy citizens in the world. Of course, any person with a living brain knows that total surveillance severely interferes with legitimate law enforcement surveillance, based on the doctrine of probable cause. ANY REAL TERRORIST PROTECTS HISSELF FROM MONITORING ANYWAY!!!
(note: When warned by the Russians of the Boston bombers, Walls St and the NSA were busy spying and infiltrating the open democratic Occupy Boston to plan brutality against our brothers and sisters.) So how fucking stupid are we?
The NSA/Wall St. is at war with citizens of the world; environmental activists, peace activists, bank reformers, public park activists, democracy activists, public education activists, etc. The fascist corporate plutocracy has already declared all of these citizens, TERRORISTS, and its PRISM and Fusion Centers are designed for the eventual mass round-ups. Our corporate masters will use the total recorded history of the peoples' leaders to first attack their character and also to frame them for false crimes. (They had this goal against Martin Luther King, Bradley manning, Julian Assange, Occupy any city, and now Glenn Greenwald and Edward Snowden.)
As expressed by Europeans and the rest of the world, it's shocking that a totalitarian police state is welcomed in America, like another episode of Dancing with the stars.
I've been blowing the whistle against the local march to fascism in the hearts of the middle class for the past 15 years. The unmistakable signs showed up locally as a "cleaner and safer" gentrification with its attack on all citizen rights and any participation of people over the decisions in their community. The importance of that "trickle down" phenomena that we experienced in this POLICE DISTRICT is well known to history throughout the evolution of feudal, colonial, and fascist systems. But think about the current "terrorism 101" training to government workers.
It is now illegal, not to inform on your government co-worker; for reading the Bill of Rights, watching Democracy Now, or feeling depressed. And you've seen the torture of Bradley Manning, and the state terrorism deployed against countless whistle blowers and journalists. While the criminals and traitors rule on behalf of Wall St., our real heroes are maligned, imprisoned, tortured and murdered.
Our modern American fascism so obviously models its police state terrorism on the East German Stasi, that to see otherwise, suggests either mass insanity or treasonous collaboration. The ignorant, terrified and addicted American middle class is now expected to accept that every single neighbor is an informant and that any interest in the truth will land him or her in a concentration camp with Bradley Manning and Edward Snowden. (And you thought that the worst thing that could happen for considering the truth would be getting called a friend of Osama Glenn Moyer)
Are you the happy ignorant cowards that MSNBC,CNN, PBS, and Fox insist that you are? Are you really cleaner and safer?????

Even Schmidt, 73, who headed one of the more infamous departments in the infamous Stasi, called himself appalled. The dark side to gathering such a broad, seemingly untargeted, amount of information is obvious, he said.
“It is the height of naivete to think that once collected this information won’t be used,” he said. “This is the nature of secret government organizations. The only way to protect the people’s privacy is not to allow the government to collect their information in the first place.”
