      This, I’ve known people who got knocks on their door by the FBI and SS for posting dumb shit they weren’t serious about as a “joke.” They take that shit seriously I guess only when its lone wolves that can’t do as much damage and not people rich enough to fund a small army.

        My friend went to a different high school than me and for some reason they had a forum with open sign ups.

        The FBI showed up at my school because I said I was gonna punch the mascot in the face…

            I’ll add to the absurdity for you: The agent asked me, “does this sound familiar?” and recited my forum signature which was a short poem about a sailing goat

        But rich people have a different set of rules. And people who are unimaginably rich have no rules.
