Which is shitty, because Bill Gates and others are literally on record proposing people wearing wristbands or finding other ways to microchip/track you. But bring up what they've said and you're the conspiracy theorist.

I'm tired of clown world.

Fun fact: The CIA invented the term conspiracy theorist to cast doubt on anyone who questioned the official story of the JFK assassination.

Bonus fun fact: History is full of examples, going back to the ancient world, of rich and powerful people secretly conspiring together to increase their wealth and power.

Knowledge of history is a crime... Or soon will be.

Only if you know the real history! So many of my idiot, leftist friends think the Indians were peace loving people and that all white people owned slaves in America. One of them is a history major too...

Just ask them who the cowboys learned to scalping from lmao.

My general stance is that every culture or nation will do something shitty in its timeline. Moorish invasion of Europe. Crusades. Hitler. Trail of Tears. Uyghur Muslim death camps. Therefore no culture can claim to be morally superior and no culture deserves to continue just because it existed first: see Aztecs and Mayans.

History is being rewritten in near real time today. This election is just one example of many.

lol. Wife and I have talked about replacing flooring, never searched anything, and our phones heard it and started getting flooring recommendations from Amazon.

Amazon is openly developing (and basically giving away) alexas to make neighborhood meshes - could be used for any number of things, from "safety" (how it will be branded, i'm sure) to individual tracking (pedestrian traffic/activity levels / pattern analysis) to in-home surveillance (oh, you currently have more than 10 devices in your home owned by others right now, must alert the police, for safety)
