I guess this was one of my first "memes" -- from 2011, right after #IndefiniteDetentionBill was signed into law.

An faded image of two police officers, one a woman standing, looking very stern. The other is aggressively pushing a person to the floor, and is wearing a helmet. The text (in a serif font, similar to a typewriter font) on the upper left reads: "More commonly, people who had incurred the displeasure of the Party simply disappeared and were never heard of again. One never had the smallest clue as to what had happened to them. In some cases, they might not even be dead." - George Orwell, 1984 The text on the lower right (in bold, sans serif letters), reads: "The NDAA's dangerous detention provisions would authorize the president - and all future presidents - to order the military to pick up and indefinitely imprison people captured anywhere in the world, far from any battlefield." - ACLU

This was my post from 2017 on the bird site (accompanied by the graphic). Luckily, the law didn't pass back then, but who knows what the future will bring?

A photograph of a police drone atop an asphalt surface. The drone has a blue (though it looks greenish) light on top, and the words POLICE written on it. “In the far distance a helicopter skimmed down between the roofs, hovered for an instant like a blue-bottle, and darted away with a curving flight. It was the Police Patrol, snooping into people's windows...” George Orwell, 1984 - published in 1949.
