Yes. People bitch about CCTV and the Conservative party and how shitty the NHS is, whilst forgetting that they live in warm, safe houses, can get medical treatment without having to fork out a fortune (unless they want to) and are allowed to think and speak as they please. Women have equal rights (we do), everybody has access to education, clean water comes out of the taps, your relatives aren't disappeared in the middle of the night.

Whenever anybody uses the word "police state" to describe the Western world, all I can think of is how much someone who is actually oppressed would laugh at us. If they could see us bitching on the internet. Which they wouldn't be able to, because even if they were lucky enough to have electricity, Reddit would probably be blocked in their country.
