Cops Are The Worst

[Rob]

3. Can you describe what you think a police state looks like?

I really don't know, but if the person you're policing is ridiculing the police to their face, and the cop looks at you weird and walks away... it's probably not that. Also, there is no context in this video. Did it happen to her or all Canadians?

Oh you don't know. That's convenient.

Probably marked the resident down as uncooperative. They'll be back.

Do you?

If you post something nuts online, even here in the US, you may get a knock on the door. I don't disagree the notion is scary, but presenting the polite, not-scary-at-all Canadian version isn't going to scare people.

yeah.



One of it's primary traits is the monitoring of it's citizen's activities.

So is this happening to all of its citizens (I mean, we're all monitored), or did this obviously riled up woman post something crazy, prompting a check in? Do you know the answer?

Is it against the law to be nuts in Canada? What did she post?

I'm pretty sure only threats or suicidal stuff gets you a courtesy visit in the US.

"well, they aren't monitoring and visiting ALL the citizens... Just the BAD ones!"

I keep asking Burt to give us context, but he won't. I would think if this was happening at scale, we wouldn't hear it from him first.

She was one of the lucky ones. The rest have already been dragged off to reeducation camps.

This kind of this happens in the UK all the time. Wouldn't be suprising if it started happening in the Loyalist part of North America.

[Rob]

Fears & theories aside, still no context. I see crazy shit online all day.

How would I know? You're the one acting from certainty here. You seem to know so much about the situation, and that she's clearly a deranged lunatic. From the video, she sounds perfectly reasonable to me.

Our revolution didn't go far enough. We must destroy the Commonwealth in its entirety.

Um, you posted the video - with the hashtag "policestate" and then defended the hashtag. All I'm asking for is context. And she's clearly excited.

[BurtReynolds]

I didn't post it.

[BurtReynolds]

It is adorably Canadian though.

[Rob]

Damnit sorry, but you defended it.

Is social media considered private?

At what point is it public domain and therefore an arena to be monitored?
