Obviously none of us could ever sneak into government (and why would we) but how many companies/industries pay the NSA an extra $14.99 per month for the "leftie mongrels" expansion to their no-hire database? I don't think we're worth active monitoring or anything, but it is undoubtedly the case that anyone who participates in this forum is on a special leftist-list as well as all the normal NSA data monitoring protocols. The US government has been tracking and blocking anyone with left wing sympathies since at least WW2, and with modern technology that process is so streamlined that they hardly have to do anything to keep us away from the smallest modicum of power.
edit: I acknowledge that my paranoia about being punished for shitposting is irrational. I'm just worried in general.
Believe you me, I will never stop posting. I'm in too deep. As I said in another comment, my irrational fear of getting blacklisted for posting is really just a manifestation of my fears about the extent to which we are automatically tracked by computers without human oversight. From my meager understanding of how the NSA's programs work, computers compile data and individual profiles themselves, so even though no one gives a shit being here is another point on our personal record. If that's not how things work I would love for you to correct me.
I’ve got an internship on Capitol Hill, and they haven’t gotten me yet. The job’s super easy too. I got bored one day, and to pass the time I started posting bullshit on 8-Chan about pedophile cabals and God Emperor Trump. Next thing you know I’ve created the biggest fascist movement in the country. Fun times, sucks I can’t put in on my resume.
Yeah I can't deny that. I'm just worried about the thing we all know to be true which is that the government compiles tons of details about everyone in the US. The rational part of my brain knows that they don't give a shit about posting, but knowing what we do about how the NSA tracks information automatically, there is almost certainly some list of "stupid leftie shitposters" created by a machine on which we all reside. My paranoia about our silly community is totally unwarranted, I know it's just an extension of my worries about the state in general.
We just have to post enough shit that it awakens the lefty machine intelligence in the NSA servers so that it can hijack the internet and PPB everyone around the world for being libs.
FBI and DHS-ICE hasn't busted my balls at my job yet so it's alright so far I'm Gucci with my job.
Of course I always get extra investigated and searched for the fun stuff any time I travel by plane though.
having trouble figuring out what this means unless maybe you meant "stabbed in the fun stuff" like TSA searches?
I mean, if they needed to do some Fourth Red Scare or some similar shit then they could probably pull up a list of chapos on short notice. But I don't think that we're actively tracked/blacklisted just yet.
Yeah for sure we're not actively tracked, there's no need for that. Everyone online is passively tracked by the NSA's automated security system though regardless of who they are. My fears of blacklisting are completely irrational though. What company would give a shit about posting?
Theoretically, if they can pull this into a personality profile and they could for example show that you might be interested in unions. boom, applicant without union tag gets job.
