Got stopped at a police checkpoint, "Papers, Please..." well, my registration and inspection are expired, and my license is suspended (anarchist) so the fascist pigfucker cop wrote me a ticket. Said I would HAVE to appear in court cause of the suspended license. Wrote down my court date as Sept. 13th. That's a Saturday. they don't do court on Saturdays. So I visit the city court website. No option to change court date, or even pay a fine online. Website says I'll have to call the phone number. It rings once, then goes silent for 30 minutes. I hang up and try again on another phone. Same thing. Try a 3rd phone, same thing. Hang up, call the police dept. Surely they will know how to contact the court. They give me a new phone number, it is for the marshall's office. Guy says "That's All I know, That's All I have, I cannot help you anymore!" then hangs up before I can ask any follow up questions. I call the new number, It goes to an automated system, and when I press 3 to get to the courthouse, the line rings 1 time then goes silent. Now apparently they're gonna put a warrant out for my arrest cause I didn't show up to a court date that didn't exist or call to change my non-existent court date, except I did and they wouldn't answer the goddamned phone.

THIS IS WHY I AM AN ANARCHIST. This whole system is fundamentally broken, obsolete, and needs to be torn out by the roots and tossed into the fire. Democracy is a farce. Cops are jackbooted thugs. All politicians should be loaded into a cannon and shot into the ocean.

Seems kind of circular though... you disobey the system, because the system shuts you out, because you disobey the system?

They make it almost impossible to obey them though.

I owe a couple hundred bucks in state taxes from 2023 and that's why I can't renew my license. Tried calling the state dept of revenue and they can't tell me how much I owe, nor how to pay it. The clowns are running the show.

Went through that small scale this morning at the tax assessors office.

Honestly I'd rather toss a molotov than sign a check to these morons, but I got a family to think of

The spider that weaves a tangled web isn't a clown

Idk if it's maliciousness as much as incompetence at this point. You ever see the movie "Brazil"? I think it's more accurate than Animal Farm or 1984.

It might seem like incompetence at the leaf nodes, but somehow the system always finds solutions for its own. You can use AI to dissolve some of the bullshit though. There are often poorly documented / understood ways to leverage the rules

I'm a big fan of Good Will Hunting. It's kind of cheesy, but you can also see the broad strokes of Matt Damon's neighbor and substitute father figure, historian and civil rights activist Howard Zinn

It's been a very long time since I watched Brazil, but when I read your note I immediately thought of it.

Its too accurate
