This isn't all about you, John. Lol In a nuclear war we're likely all dead, including my cat. Please think of Squitters if not the rest of us.

Let me delete and re-write:

I don't see all of humanity being wiped out by anything other than another asteroid. I might even survive nuclear war if I happen to be in the right place at the right time.

But a nation that is totally controlled, with no thoughts other than the approved thoughts, yep, that's scarier to me.

As I said, an opinion. So of course it is "all about me" that's what an opinion is.

"I might even survive nuclear war if I happen to be in the right place at the right time." Knowing that so many share that opinion to me makes it scarier than a West Point for bureaucrats.

As far as living in a country with no thoughts but approved thoughts, looks like we're heading there regardless. Pretty bleak options, right?
