Even if they did... I don't necessarily think it would be that detrimental. Conservatives tend to be more active in their communities. It's likely in that event you'd see many resistance cells begin to pop up across the US. Meanwhile, Libs who are incapable of communicating without the internet/MSM would both lose their shit and effectively be isolated.
Liberals who are incapable of communicating without internet
Too true. I’ve slowly been going “low tech.” Just as an example:
I’m building a physical media collection, so I don’t have to stream. I feel like streaming is a way to prevent private ownership of media. I have ~500 DVDs and ~250 CDs. I’m approaching 500 hard copy books, too.
Remember dumb MP3 players? They’re still a thing. All of my CDs are loaded on one. With some work, I get podcasts too. I miss nothing.
I don’t have any smart home devices. Is an internet ready doorknob convenient? I guess. But I’ll never sleep as peacefully as I do with my Grade 1 dumb lock. Alexa and Siri can get bent. I have no need for a “virtual assistant.”
My iPhone is becoming a “bye phone”. As soon as my contract runs out, I’m getting a dumb phone. Texting will be T9. When it isn’t in use, it will be in a faraday bag.
Of course I have internet. I just believe there is a time and place for it.
When I tell this to my liberal friends, they look at me like I’m committing some form of suicide. My answer to them is always, “I’m sorry. Does my being a letter/phone call/email/text message away from you make me inaccessible?”
No, technically impossible and will create more problems than without it. We are not in North Korea.
Literally invented so nuked cities would still be able to communicate
Too few realize this was the entire purpose of the entire TCP/IP protocol.
I think they need to keep it to keep their crazy people fired up.

There is for non-technical people and Windows users. Otherwise, no.
Maybe that’s why they released the Kung Flu, to kill our sense of smell, so that we couldn’t sense the impending kill switch!!! Lol
Sounds legit
Na.
Wow, I guess we can all go back to banging messages out with rocks like our grandparents did. Darn.
BiBi's got the kill switch
