NSA, Snowden, surveillance, people are waking up and realizing that governments do spy on them. But for black folks, it\u2019s old story. We have a sense that governments can just annihilate us whenever they want, it\u2019s called look back at History, read books.<\/p>\n
If you haven\u2019t heard about CointelPro<\/a>, read the link. At that time, it was still easy to steal FBI documents<\/a>. Mass surveillance is old.<\/p>\n The FBI spied on people in the 60s and went on to kill leaders of organizations they deemed \u201cdangerous\u201d. It\u2019s heavily documented. I mean killing people is going too far on the surveillance list. Oh yeah, it was mostly against everyone not WASP, for some reason.<\/p>\n When you know that they did everything to trap a Black Panther party member and finally assassinate him<\/a> early 70s, you can\u2019t be surprised at the NSA recording terabytes of data every hour these days. <\/p>\n But as long as it wasn\u2019t their asses being spied on, white people didn\u2019t give a damn. Now they are shocked. It reminds me of Occupy Wall street: \u201cCops are mean! They don\u2019t stop profiling me!\u201d<\/em>. No shit, Sherlock.<\/p>\n I\u2019m not saying it\u2019s OK for governments to do that \u2013of course it\u2019s not- but if only white people had given more criticism toward that stuff going on 40 years ago instead of just closing their eyes. \u201cnot my problem<\/a>\u201d, full throttle?<\/p>\n Bitch, now it\u2019s your problem too. And we\u2019re all kind of naked out there. Awesome.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" NSA, Snowden, surveillance, people are waking up and realizing that governments do spy on them.
