The U.S. is the Most Dangerous to Us

I am infinitely more concerned about the U.S. having my data than I am about any other country in the world having it.

The U.S. does not even have to hack us to steal our data, they simply take it. The government has enabled companies to build in data farming as part of their usage agreements. They have also spent the entirety of our lives weaving elaborate lies about very specific countries and regions to justify militarism and imperialism, for which they use and take our data.

To Empire, its weapons and military arsenal is its greatest asset. And they use us to protect it. Empire is worried about its weapons and military arsenal, it is not worried about you. Empire spends trillions each year to stockpile and feed that arsenal. An arsenal it has because it created the narrative that we need it more than anything else in the world. That we need it for our very survival.

Meanwhile, we are not actually surviving. Because the consequence of that arsenal, is millions suffering because of fires, floods, hurricanes, inaccessible housing, nonexistent healthcare, fatal education, unbreathable air, undrinkable water, toxic foods, and catastrophes fueled by capitalist colonialism.

The government uses fear, political fear, to scare you into thinking that the most important thing to protect in the world is the arsenal. And they use all types of propaganda to accomplish this. Anti-Black, anti-Indigenous, xenophobic, Sinophobic, anti-immigrant, transphobic, ableist, Islamophobic propaganda. All of that propaganda to make you afraid and to scare you into thinking that protecting the arsenal is the most important task of your life.

Empire puts out all of that propaganda to try to get you to protect it. They try to convince us that the trillions spent on militarism, weapons, surveillance, and the taking of our data is for our “safety.”

U.S. data theft and surveillance are some of the most detrimental in the world.

Living in the U.S., it is the U.S. that has been the most dangerous to us.

Don’t protect Empire. Empire does not protect you.
