Inspired by a few other posts and memes flying about. When I was young movies and tbh real life you would come across old people telling you that can’t trust the gov. To keep your cash at home etc. tell em nothing.

I am feeling it. I always assumed maybe about 60 it will happen to me. I kinda linked it to idle minds or a cognitive decline but lack of trust for me has arrived a lot earlier and I think I can rationalise to myself it’s more based on the gov actions rather than my circumstances.

So wha do you think in the magic age number that trust in the gov erodes? I’ll start. 42.

    That’s a good point. What is the line? I think for me it is two things.

    The voicing. Saying to others I do not trust them - usually followed by discourse and reasoning/grassroots activism

    Taking steps to protects yourself/or obscure - for example starting to use cash or taking steps to avoid being surveilled.

    I sound like my dad…keep ya cash close and tell em nothing
