How To Live Happily In a Police State

Let silence be answerable to sound. Unplug yourself move with caution through crowds bow head as if in prayer yet deny God at all costs. Let the brave resist... survive. Support our leaders whoever or whatever is in charge. have no reservations or doubts, its all for your own good, for your own peace of mind. Fake brain damage. Now that truth is a lie, agree to agree. if you are young enough to be conscripted volunteer to kill at will. Avoid clubs and interest groups, stay under the radar. Surrender your gun say you found it in a ditch. Never complain. Always smile and nod. Acclaim proudly that poverty is patriotism. Criminals are the real victims, apologies to all for being you. When they say we must try harder to "flatten the curve" never ask "What curve?" Believe the official news toe the line. Never ask "What line"? Turn a blind eye to EVERYTHING.
