After reading about this on hacker news, I get why they do it. Its to make people upload identification documents, to get them prepped to authenticate for using the internet. Now the world makes sense again. I was wondering why they would do something positive. But now I get it.
Why does almost everything that is supposed to protect kids turn out to be another authoritarian fantasy of the ruling class?
Because when you talk about protection or safety for children or animals or [insert vulnerable group here] you can short-circuit a lot of people’s reason/skepticism.
Because evil runs these people. Its actually that simple. When these guys speak, its easy to hear they are evil, because of how they speak.
And they know other people are good, so they wont immediately agree with a dystopian society. So you take small steps, where each one looks good on the surface to the billions of people who only hear about this for 5 seconds on the news.
I saw a carousel for kids today and thought it looked creepy. Everything is so bad that now when I see something made for joy or innocent-looking, I automatically think it’s a front for something sinister. The current state of affairs is bad.
Happens to me too. Specially in movies, a lot of things seem evil now.
