some lines from the article she loves said:a majority of the public supported compulsory ID cards, as well as CCTV cameras in every public place and a national database of citizens’ fingerprints
"is it time to sacrifice freedom for administrative efficiency, and bow down to po-faced officialdom?"
As society has liberalised, a vacancy has appeared. It used to be that family, neighbourhood communities and religions worked as our moral arbiters, telling us what was right and wrong, what was fair, what we owe to others, and how we should best organise our lives. But these have declined. Could it be that we need the state to stand in instead?
Fucksake, wish I never saw this. Now I want to do something like this.I have a new lodger.
Slight misquote there there 2nd part is not from any Labour politician but a historian and was repeated by Rees-MoggAnd, of course, with Labour getting back in, ID cards are likely back on the agenda:

Jacob Rees Mogg is wrong: Britons do want ID cards | Martha Gill
Libertarian politicians like Jacob Rees-Mogg are out of touch with a public comfortable with sharing its personal datawww.theguardian.com
The two problems we face here are that 1) the majority of humans are naturally facist assholes - that poll is likely true. But the majority of humans are also knuckle dragging retards who can't conceptualise the society they support when asked these questions - never mind how it would feel to live for decades in it. And, 2) we're about to hand the keys to these people - Labour - who, to quote firefly, think they can "make people better".
Like I said. Terrified of Labour getting in![]()
What will Scouse say when he realises the tories made photo ID mandatory for voting? Kinda makes the whole ID card thing a bit of a storm in a teacup. It's here anyway...And, of course, with Labour getting back in, ID cards are likely back on the agenda:

Try this firstIf you want to do it, go to Bird Box Cameras | Green Feathers and get what you need. I have this one WiFi Side View Bird Box Camera Ultimate Bundle | Green Feathers
The camera is PoE so I just connected it to a spare port on my home security NVR. And then I enabled rtsp on the NVR and got the address for that camera. I'm trying to get it to stream via this Pi 4 I have but the OS seems to be unstable, maybe I need a better SD card for it. Crashes when I start a browser, etc.
Mine is slightly out of focus but I'll fix that once the birds have left the nest. You just rotate the lens, it locks with a grub screw.
No misquote - I'm quoting an article that makes a case for state-sanctioned morality. Supporting that quote. A case already proven - the state has no business deciding morality.Slight misquote there there 2nd part is not from any Labour politician but a historian and was repeated by Rees-Mogg
Like legislation which ultimately led to Alan Turing committing suicide eh? Because what he thought and did was immoral, according to the state.The state already takes a strong stance on morality, what it decides tends to end up as laws.
Because I may or may not agree with some policy decisions doesn't mean I want to give up freedom of thought and action.And the article talks about the state not being forced to pay for things like fatties and smokers on the NHS something I would have thought you would be in favour of 😀
For voting (which I disagree with). This is an argument for everything.What will Scouse say when he realises the tories made photo ID mandatory for voting? Kinda makes the whole ID card thing a bit of a storm in a teacup. It's here anyway...
I get it. But I want to see the science that shows that.Think of a person you've met in real life and decided you wanted to punch their lights out
Time passes, and you have kids.
Now imagine all your children being able to instantly recognise and hate that person on sight even though you've never shown them a picture, video, or even mentioned them.
Nice!
Slightly rougher wood for your next box tho maybe?![]()
I know "Orwellian" is an overused term, but fucking hell Scotland.
