Are you a fireman? It’s just like a fireman to say that people are being stupid repeatedly if the FD has to get off their lazy butts and actually work.

As far as “the big state” goes, they are a fully integrated system of oppression. Many in local government are vets right out of the military or currently in reserves who view civilians as insurgents. I don’t know how the Right got this “local” government distinction popular because it is nothing like reality. DHS constantly suckles the FD and PD like they are little babies.

They are all in on it; there is no “little” government.
