You must have been living on another plantet for the last couple of years.
> In democracies, it really is pushed for {good reasons}.
NKVD officers probably thought the same.
Oh you probably mean a great democracy like Canada, where the state decided to froze donations, banks accounts of its citizens, because they were protesting ?
Or the US where people were fired if they don't comply with the state ?
We can go on and on...
> Pretending there's a sinister, organized New World Order (aka "them") with decades-long plans to restrict freedom is fantasy, and doesn't help us target the actual problem.
I wonder what happened the last two years where people were restricted to get out even from their own homes. Perhaps we the plebs lived in a fantasy world where we couldn't go out without getting fined by the police for jogging.
No one is pretending anymore. They have their own gatherings, lavish parties during pandemics, and their own kingdoms where they kill big bad wolves if they dare hunt their ponies.
