> 'To save myself from vague, inchoate paranoia'

To save yourself from 'vague, inchoate paranoia', you instead took a nosedive into cluelessness and naivete.

"I've got nothing to hide" won't save you, because it's exactly the fact that you have 'nothing to hide' that makes you so utterly contemptible to the very evil people who own your mind, body, and soul. Your ignorance and complacency, in their opinion, is one of many damning factors making you unworthy of life. To them (and to me, honestly), you are nothing more than a "useless eater."

This is why they are working so diligently to exterminate you--after they've used you, of course, to do as much damage as possible to those who preach truth.

To make it clear: the only value you personally have in this world, to your owners, is that you make them money. The only reason you are allowed to live is so that you may serve them. As soon as your usefulness has expired, you will be tossed into the fire. "Having nothing to hide" not only won't save you, it will fuck you.



Hi, getitstraight

You're new around here. Welcome!

You might be used to a Twitter style dismissiveness, but do read the guidelines. People take them seriously. It makes this a unique forum. Not perfect, but generally considerate

> I've got nothing to hide" won't save you

This is true. It's also a non-sequitur. You're arguing against a very easy, stupid argument that I did not make, and you argued it rather aggressively. How about you quote the specific sentences that led you to this, and we'll sort it out together.

Again, welcome!
