"She never knew then she was walking into a crime scene."
Nice line. Got it from a book?

Since incept, the WWW has been preached by wired and their ilk, along with silicon valley, as a free and open borderless idea zone. Now, with the exposure of just how much the great tech companies have essentially become tools of the state, we've got "Russian" ideas and borders back. No, you have been exposed as the hypocrite non-egalitarians you are, and you keep pushing this crap as if it is going to avert attention.
Perhaps in the election of 2020, if candidates are closer together conceptually and politically, there could be some real influence. But not when they are so radically opposed. If there was so much influence, why didn't your candidate win? Let me guess, you yourselves did not know to operate your own surveillance network?

KIBO IS GOD
PEOPLE DISCUSS PRETTY much everything on the Usenet system. There are groups devoted to every type of computer, scientific discipline, hobby, pet, and, of course, religion.
Of the groups dedicated to the discussion of religions, 29,000 people read soc.religion.christianity and 26,000 people read soc.religion.newage. Tied for third at 21,000 readers are soc.religion. islam and alt.religion.kibology. Kibology?
"Isaac Asimov is alive and living with Elvis and Kibo," writes one poster to alt.religion.kibology.
etc.
