Europe, Britain, Australia, and Canada all doing this shit at the same time... Come on, whose really incharge here?

We really need to smash shit up and replace this pretense of democracy with a more direct form of democracy.

Is there a militia or some club I can join with this aim?

France usually does a pretty good job of fucking shit up when the people in charge go against the populace.

I guess too few people today are actually concerned about privacy. Honestly I think it comes from a place of ignorance. They don't understand the dangers so they don't believe there IS danger.

I am kinda hoping this attitude changes if America has a civil war. Odds are that we would see all kinds of awful things happening, it would be nice if the world takes notes on how to avoid the same.

Taking your question seriously - If you're in the USA, you could find your nearest SRA chapter. Often SRA members know people in other less overt local organizations that you may be able to link up with.
