Lost Perspective

I like the line: "Fighting for peace is like f*#king for virginity."

But maybe we don't need to care if the forum is infiltrated with 'Big Brother' agents? It's not like we're not already used to it in everyday life.
We already know they can tap our phones, monitor our internet activity, scan everything for 'keywords', read our bank accounts and watch us on security cameras in every store we go into and every street corner we walk around.
...meh. I've got nothing to hide.

We're already used to hearing different versions of 'the story', from nearly every different website we visit. So we're all used to sorting the wheat from the chaff, in our own ways.
Ultimately we've all got our own minds, and as long as we don't surrender that to a blind trust in anybody else then we don't need to be afraid of disinfo agents.
