The State has NO RIGHT to control what we write, what we say, or how we protest. Your regulations, your labels, your corrupt bureaucratic censors—we vomit on them! A free press and the streets belong to free citizens, not to your filthy, power-hungry technocrat hands. The monopoly on information and the control of dissent are over! You're shaking because the awakening of the people is destroying your parasite privileges. It's the hour of total freedom or the tyranny of the caste: we chose the people, we chose freedom. |
