> Some people well tell me it's not a big deal but over the years all those little things add up into some seriously lost freedoms and a more oppressive government.

That's exactly what this is. Slowly widdle away at our freedoms until there are none left. Each thing affects a small group of people so most people just shrug their shoulders.

 I don't travel, who cares about the TSA
 I don't smoke pot, so who cares about cannabis laws? 
 I don't like guns, so nobody should be allowed to have one. (oh boy, here it comes) 
 I don't use tik tok so I don't care about that. 
 That only affects crypto people. 
 That only affects gay people. 
 That only affects hippies.
 That only affects concertgoers. 
 Etc, etc, 

On top of that, they're using all these issues to divide us and get us arguing against each other when they're the problem. This is some wild shit that's happening and it's going to be very interesting to see how this era goes down in the history books.
