Going deep on TUSCL...
As it relates to the recent violence in Vegas -
There is a certain element (people) in every society that cannot function within the norms/laws defined by a culture. In the past, these people could be complete fuck ups living on the fringes a society because there was no way to track or catch them as they live as parasites on the back of others.
Examples would be having multiple illegitimate children, theft, vandalism, running out on money owed. The list goes on.
The days of being a complete fuck up with impunity are pretty much long over though. Now, we are under surveillance almost every where we go. Huge data bases track where we live or work. Even our phones report our movements.
Point is, it is hard as hell to commit random crime without being captured on video by someone. Wages get garnished for kids and back taxes. Debt collectors know our every move.
I can see how the fuck ups are going to feel more and more suppressed until they just snap and go ballistic like what we saw in Vegas and many other places.
Where will all this surveillance/tracking lead? The more they fuck up, the surveillance and tracking we'll get.
Got something to say?
