There's something so poetic about the fans super invested in Deltarune's "lore," ARGs, Gaster, Dess etc being disappointed in the chapter where Asgore's tunnel visioning into a cryptic case only hurts him, and finding answers doesn't fix or solve anything
@BillAckman Desantis gutted clean water infrastructure projects, public education, renewable energy, and public infrastructure upgrades.
This is how you turn your state into a 3rd world shithole.
"Ambition must be made to counteract ambition."
"Power must never be trusted without a check."
"The accumulation of all powers... in the same hands... may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny."
We can't ignore the Founders. We need checks and balances.
Congress is trying to pass The KIDS Act, a package full of age verification bills, even the KOSA bill.

Today Israel bombed Palestine, Lebanon and Syria.
There’s a “ceasefire” im both Palestine and Lebanon yet it did not stop Israel from bombing and occupying both states.
I’ve never seen a “state” that bombs 3 different states on the same day then cries victim.
black people are STILL undergoing a genocide in america. RIGHT NOW. TODAY.
every other day, there is a case reported of a black person being found hanging from a tree. usually in the south.
we are still being killed. by others, by police, by the jail, and by the court.

The internet is our Library of Alexandria.
The internet as we've been using it up to this point has been relatively free to use in terms of what you could do, with very few limitations.
Instant communication around the world, being able to speak with other languages in a back and forth dialogue, content making and sharing, shopping, gaming, information gathering and sharing, a place to learn and so on.
You have the freedom and ability to speak your mind on something and a chance for that something to be seen and heard INSTANTLY.
Should the powers that be decide to change the rules, things as we have now will never be the same.
The list:
-Speaking to someone outside of your country without proper clearance, like a digital passport. Something you will likely have to pay for, should it ever happen.
-Slowed communications. No longer instant for whatever arbitrary reason they decide to give.
-Country gates. You may not even be allowed to visit certain websites outside your country's jurisdiction, without said digital passport.
-Paying for time spent on foreign websites, like long distance calls used to cost money.
-Content making and gathering. If you make something that they deem unsafe, even if it's not, you are subject to their laws—This includes speaking out against an injustice. Or criticizing your government.
-Information gathering, sharing, learning. You may not be allowed easy access to information as you do now.
To wrap it all up. Some of these things sound absurd and you'd be right to say so. But all they have to do is decide that they want more control and we have to live with it.
If you think you are safe because you don't do anything "bad", all they have to do is change what that means and suddenly you're in trouble.
