a former president said Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.that is a brilliant and important quote... because when tyranny rules they work to control the media, the education system, the legal system, the legislation of rights, the voting system(electronic voting machines) and first and foremost at any expense their continued rule. guess what? its right in plain sight. now think about this and remember the founders writings and warnings when now,a few generations later we hear this quote from todays president. Unfortunately, you’ve grown up hearing voices that incessantly warn of government as nothing more than some separate, sinister entity that’s at the root of all our problems; some of these same voices also doing their best to gum up the works. They’ll warn that tyranny is always lurking just around the corner. You should reject these voices. Because what they suggest is that our brave and creative and unique experiment in self-rule is somehow just a sham with which we can’t be trusted. think about his wordsour problemswhat are the main problems?did the people create these problems?the last part really gets me-You should reject these voices. Because what they suggest is that our brave and creative and unique experiment in self-rule is somehow just a sham with which we can’t be trusted.self rule hahaha thats quite a tricky twist, as well as the twist on we meaning government in his use. see how he twisted the meanings and tied the two together? the definition of tyranny is defined as “arbitrary or unrestrained exercise of power; despotic abuse of authority.” think Ill buy some darker shades,some that i can stare at the sun with because i dont like what i see. better yet just have a lobotomy done and not think or care at all. All men recognize the right of revolution; that is, the right to refuse allegiance to, and to resist, the government, when its tyranny or its inefficiency are great and unendurable. --from Civil Disobedience (1849)
