    Imagine giving 70% of your life in defense of your country only to be fired after a grotesque monster gives a handy to a fellow grotesque monster.

      The NSA is the arm of the American surveliance state that violates the rights of every person on the planet and illegally spies on citizens without a warrant. Stop glorifying it.

        There was the pretense that the people in these positions cared more about national security than control.

        That pretense is totally gone now.

        The NSA now exists as a surveillance tool of billionaires who are attempting to take control of the human race.

        Every day we let more of our systems fall under their control the more likely it is we have to kill them to stop them

    “Another national defense leader bends the knee to a fascist oligarchy instead of defending the nation.”

    It’s almost like this has been a 50 year plan to create systemic surveillance and a police state so it can be repurposed by the oligarchs to automatically control their slaves.

    But that sounds like a conspiracy theory so there’s no way it can be true.

    So at this point is it safe to say there are no secret files about aliens?

    Surely some drooler would have slip something out by now.

    I’m fine with this. They should have destroyed all their surveillance tech before the fascists got it in their back pocket, tho
