“Against individualism, the Fascist conception is for the State; and it is for the individual in so far as he coincides with the State . . . . It is opposed to classical Liberalism . . . .

Atlantic Monthly has the story.

Can somebody say “property rights?” What is this absolute nonsense, whereby we live in fear of crossing a corporation’s desires?

Could this possibly be constitutional?

Anyone purchasing these piece of shit phones, and giving more money to the people who would imprison you, is too stupid to bother with.
