Reply to comment by basshead17 in U.S. Supreme Court Declines to Hear Wikimedia Foundation’s Challenge to NSA Mass Surveillance by gururururug

Not sure if you understand the scope of what government surveillance like illegal wiretapping and data mining entails. You don't have to be a criminal for it to erode everyone's civil rights or ruin people's lives, maybe even your own.

I agree with you wholeheartedly. I'm just saying most people don't care.

I am one of them too, really, just for myself. But in this insane Age of Trump I have gotten a lot more conscious and everyday am looking at the big picture to see what I can contribute, what I can do to fight the future.

In reality, it is little, but even just being a social justice warrior is something. I think just always staying conscious and aware, and maintaining the right attitude and state of mind is paramount.

And simply connecting with others like right now.
