Well actually the opposite is true. You can be heard around the world now without being censored. It was in the past that everything was watered down by gatekeepers.

Also why is that guy staring at me in that meme. Is that Keanu Reeves? What does he have to do with anything.

Your relatives just like pictures that say random things with celebrities on them for no reason?

I think it's a generational thing. Kids love to meme everything.

My middle sister also pointed out that East Germans had pretty good border security, and maybe the U.S. could learn from them.


I didn't point out that the GDR was generally more concerned about people leaving the country and less about them coming in. :rolleyes:

Yeah, not the best example to follow.  Plus, the guns and mines were all facing inward, not outward.

On the other hand, IIRC the East German government called the wall the antifaschistischer Schutzwall IIRC, which may either excite or confuse some of our fellow Languishites with antifa sympathies :P

I don't think many non-conservatives get fooled by self-assigned labels, from German Democratic Repbulic or otherwise.
