But on the other hand as they gather more data, western search engines are getting shittier and shittier, so they’re basically increasing the noise with no way of getting a better signal. The promise of targeted algorithms was an empty one. The FBI is also seemingly focused on finding lonely young Muslim men to gaslight and Chinese computer scientists to harass and drive back into the open arms of the Chinese government rather than doing anything about people planning mass shootings. The empire is rotting from the inside and I think the capacity of the state to smash people with the cudgel of its power will eventually find that it said cudgel has turned to mush one day when it smashes against something solid.
The FBI are quite content with fomenting radicalism and setting up pretend terror plots with mentally ill people. It serves several purposes, namely they get to take credit for foiling a terror attack they created, but also they get to learn how to best radicalize people to do horrendous things and not get caught with ties to them.
Not to mention the FBI are fucking stupid. The epitome of a chimp with a gun. I remember seeing that documentary about that McDonalds Monopoly bullshit and they had interviews with the actual FBI agent assigned to investigate and you should have listened to the guy talk. He sounded like a dumb frat dude and not the fun himbo kind. It’s terrifying how much power these people are handed. (Also, it’s very cool to know that Mcdonald’s gets the FBI helping them when they’re ‘stolen from’ but calls about domestic violence don’t even get a police officer checking it out half the time.)
But yeah, the empire is collapsing and the only thing keeping it alive is the sheer amount of resources being scraped off the backs of the common folk.

Some day they will use that on us.
When you’re mentally ill and groomed by the FBI, but flake on the day they could incriminate you to play the new WoW expansion

40% of the time the offender just investigates himself and finds no wrongdoing anyway
