From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IdiotÖ
Until 2007, the California Penal Code Section 26 stated that "Idiots" were one of six types of people who are not capable of committing crimes. In 2007 the code was amended to read "persons who are mentally incapacitated."[16] In 2008, Iowa voters passed a measure replacing "idiot, or insane person" in the State's constitution with "person adjudged mentally incompetent.
Just a continuation of what is happening with the human race..
For millenniums, if not longer, they go on killing each other for the weirdest reasons.
Not the one's having some meat on the issue but their subordinates in various fashions. How does this happen that people get to exited about something that they loose their common sense or maybe they never had it?
Is it the duty to "your country", in itself a non-existent reality except in the thought concepts in some skulls. Or does it come from pissing in every corner of what is "your" land and dare you come any close to "mine".

Still that's ancient, what is happening now seems to be the result of the idiots on top across the globe.
People support the putative dictator because the dictator promises to give those people the power to shit on others.
This goes down all the way, historically, the lowest level being men dominating women.
Well, why does one need to control another? Feeling inferior without it maybe comes into play...
So, as long as one feels less and that's not fixed, the insatiable need to compensate for that with things who don't fix the underlying reason, the game to fill the bottomless bucket goes on...
And the man/woman game thing - women are more powerful in some ways and that cannot be tolerated, so....
The promises of a dictator or - narcissist, as we have it, can get hold only when someone is naive, mildly put.
How single individuals get the power to determine the lives of well, millions or billions of people, defining how their individual lives turn.
This ongoing game has not changed for ? 1000's of years.
It needs two parts - the allowing and the demanding side and as always, the allowing number of individuals is by far the much larger number.
Maybe there are some niches where this system has somewhat changed to benefit a larger part of a population. Overall, it is the same and the mechanisms to uphold this imbalance getting more and more refined.
Has it to do something with upbringing, where behavioral patterns are formed and kept or is it genetically imprinted?
If you look from a more distant point, it is just weird. There is some different opinion about a point and then starts this prancing and breast pounding and vassals are sent out to measure up their skills under the risk of getting injured or killed, now from very remote and safe places..
Who benefits? It seems to just create more and more trauma in people where the opposite event, less trauma could lead to more happiness.
They will have to operate in a capitalistic society and such a "society" will favor NOT ALL, but only a part of it, as seen right now.
Same goes for other social structures communistic totalitarian, monarchy, plutocracy and what else there is. Seems some countries in northern Europe are doing somewhat better, Norway, Sweden, where social well-being has been found to improve when the spread between wealth and income between individual shrinks.
So - let's wait a couple of centuries and see how this pans out, if there will be an environment for mammals to flourish. Maybe lichens and fungi will do better and happier...
Any ideas? Human life counts nothing, environment, future life of our decedents are not a topic or even thought to consider. If I look at commuter traffic stuffing freeways and thick black smut coming out of trucks exhausts when they accelerate. Particle matters go in your lungs for good and stay there....
There isn't any. You have no expectation of privacy on public services
Total BS you utter here, shows the usual uncritical wimp behavior getting fucked over.
I have expectations against abuse and exploit of my privacy. Apparently, in other countries something like that exists and there are attempts to hold the bigger players - Google, Facebook, Twitter etc. somewhat accountable.
For starters - you are not allowed to take a picture of a person without getting permission to do so and people in those countries are growing up with this kind of consciousness. You are not - wimp!
what's the privacy on this? How are my access data protected and stored across the board? Thinking about this Facebook crap, I just want to start vomiting.
And... using Tor, at least I get a warning... attempted to extract HTML5 canvas data... uniquely identifying your computer. All the other browser just do it, and who uses it without even asking for permission.
Is any politician in this country (USA) even remotely aware about this abuse and doing (or can) something about it? Hardly... And - don't give me the crap of it's too late, you have no privacy and - the genie is out of the bottle. It won't change the abuse happening....
Puritan mindset alive - God is watching (over) you, and from there an upbringing "don`t put foul words in your mouth", and on it goes, just always doing the "right" thing, in case of doubt, even more right, to be on the save side. Corporate culture, fitting in automagically....
Lets just look at the current POTUS. Clear case of lots of Self and in a desperate need to adjust anything not agreeing with it so it agrees.
Is this a way to live? Seems a pretty busy undertaking and in a larger amount of collisions with not agreeing Selfs and that following unhappiness with inner conflict because in such a big Self, unhappiness cannot be shown or tolerated.
Forcing someone against his/her will to watch something they don't need or ever want may not working so well.
I get pestered by some websites to disable my non-existing ad-blocker and it takes all the fun out of it. If it happens always, I don't go there anymore and look somewhere else.
Next thing, if there is a counter running for ad length and I really want to watch it what's behind, sound is turned down and the browser window moved down, do just the counter is visible and I start looking/listening again.
Who likes ads? For me it is just yuck without end. Something I don't need, not want at all because ist's just stuffed down my throat against my will.
The original spirit of the Internet at it's creation seems completely gone..
You would be surprised how many companies do this with content you upload to them. If you want to get really large images made up, and the shops (let's say Black's Photography) can't do it in house. They ask you to upload it to their website and it will be done and shipped to the closest location. Upon reading the fine print in website user agreement, they then own that image and can use it however they like.
I don't remember the last time I uploaded an image to any website (social or otherwise) because they all use the same language in the end user agreements now.
Just another example how corporations rule and dominate the life of normal people more and more unhindered by the totally corrupt political system in the US. We support you by funding you and you do our work, if not, we will stop supporting (funding) you. Bribery par exemple.

Do you believe anything a large corporation states?
If you do - dream on!
I think it is a tree of power thing.

Because this country is not driven by laws. You can drop that illusion, in case you have not.

A billionaire who nails lots of hot chicks. Yeah, it must be so awful for him...
Wow, absolutely respectful towards the other sex, seems something has not yet penetrated to here...
What's better?
Lets just look at the current POTUS. Clear case of lots of Self and in a desperate need to adjust anything not agreeing with it so it agrees.
Is this a way to live? Seems a pretty busy undertaking and in a larger amount of collisions with not agreeing Selfs and that following unhappiness with inner conflict because in such a big Self, unhappiness cannot be shown or tolerated.
I'd say, lesser self is a wiser choice.
