Start Watching For White Vans
Advertisements [?]
Pretty soon you'll see them everywhere!

Don't believe me, try it!

It's a Psych 101 experiment to show how easily one can cross over from rational thinking to feeling paranoid.

I think that the government has not likely been wiretapping anyone for posting on a website like DU.

Now if a person were involved in political groups, it is possible that this happened.

In F-911, remember the "anti war" group in San Francisco? Mostly middle aged persons who got together and ate and planned small protests, and enjoyed each other's company. Yet there was a plant put into the group, a local police officer being used to spy on the group.

Government can be paranoid just like individuals can. (See Richard Nixon and his administration)

The Bushies are a very closed system, and seem to value secrecy and loyalty.

I'm sure that they have spied on their political enemies.

Maybe that includes DU.

But the posts on "clicks", and people in suburbans watching them, well it makes for intrigue, and it could be the government spying, but my guess is that it's more like the white van experiment.

Just my opinion
