What really makes me nervous is the possibility of innocent US citizens being misconstrued as enemies of the state for posting anything online that isn't 100% supportive of the government.
Right now the US seems like it's on a slippery slope to fascism and/or totalitarianism rule.<p>Your thoughts, please.

I haven't been this content in 10 years.<p>"What really makes me nervous is the possibility of innocent US citizens being misconstrued as enemies of the state for posting anything online that isn't 100% supportive of the government"<p>Take every opportunity to point out that you love the USA. Hippies literally wrapped themselves in our flag. We are the patriots. The current people in government are blip in our history. Hopefully they're tried for their crimes and serve in the prisons they built.
You shouldn't be scared of living in the US, because as they said, the NSA only targets non-Americans. In fact, that means you'll be safer in the US! Who gives a crap about non-Americans anyway?<p>EDIT: /s
