It's very sad to me that no one protests this insanity.
ReplyDeleteI think, perhaps, one of the reasons no one does protest is because there is no word, that I know of, for this kind of all-encompassiing government encroachment.
The kind where everything that is not permitted is against the law, and every space that is not absolutely private, is perfectly public, and anyone can be brought down for anything at any time.
Yeah it's too bad there's no famous distopian novels about such a society.
