alt Hacker News> Pretending that we are in full blown dictatorship is, in my view, still cynical.
Could you please point to what I said that implies I'm pretending a "full blown dictatorship?" I apologize if that's somehow what I indicated. It certainly wasn't my intent.
”[…] the times I was so naive and idealistic.”
”[…] I envy the worldview it's possible someone can take money from another and still maintain independence.”
Do you believe relying on our legal system is naive and idealistic?
What would be the non-idealistic view other than no structures can be trusted and that we live in a dictatorship?
