There's a big difference between the Stasi and the FBI. Granted, the FBI has been known to occasionally do Stasi-esque illegal shit (most notably assassinating MLK), but that's not their mission statement and what they do the vast majority of the time.

Again, you will probably be right in a little while when Project 2025 kicks in, but at present you're pulling the fire alarm because someone is unwrapping a toaster strudel.

Do you think mlk was the first or last?

Judi Bari was literally arrested for car bombing herself.

You're either intentionally or unintentionally ignoring my point.

Goodbye!
