    I always love how everything of the GDR is about the Stasi. Like, there was nothing else, only Stasi.

    And still nobody connects the dots about what was bad about the Stasi with current techno-capitalism and its little brother chat control et al.

    So, Stasi bad, but Stasi, pretending being about children, good, apparently.

      Sort of like how the lesson they took away from the Holocaust wasn’t that it was bad because it was a genocide, it was bad because they weren’t supporting Jewish people and therefore they must help Israel with there genocide.

      Something is bad only if the bad guys do it , otherwise it’s necessary for security.
