I'm tired of people falling for this kind of shit every single fucking time.

Authoritarianism is never passed through a bill overnight. It's one step in the wrong direction after another, multiplied N times.

This is a step in the wrong direction. After that you're one step away from "improving the verification" and you would reject that step only if you have nothing bad to hide.

Do you remember when it was only a few cameras to evaluate their efficiency? Now they're everywhere and are to use AI for behavior assessment and face recognition.

It's the same pattern every fucking time!

Can you give me an example, please? There are many authoritarian countries in the world. Can you tell me how they were created in many small steps?
