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.
what age do you stop trusting the alternative to government, which is corporations?
let me just remind you that at least the government is voted in, wheras corporations are just any assholes with enough money to buy things and pay wages.
They’re not mutually exclusive?
You can and should not trust either
yes, go live in the nonexistent commune; it’s a solution for 8 billion people.
You can not trust something and still live under it.
It’s about being aware that you should be prepared for if things get worse.
I have never trusted them, I stupidly fell into the might be ok as someone will step up and regulate but I’ve been making steps to stop and protect more of my privacy.
