Oh my it's brutal but there. On AIBU. Social scolding hellfire.
Do people have no concept of the risks of overreach by police and of government taking advantage of a crisis situation?
Also, just remembered reading Naomi Klein's, 'The Shock Doctrine' which documented how governments around the world took advantage of national crises to impose right wing legislation. Shocking book and we should be alert to the risks. Has anyone read it?
Would be interested to discuss the risks of goverments pushing through legislation they would normally have no chance of passing.
