“Telling them lies” lol its called newspapers, radios, and television, which is older than 1999. At least with the invention of smartphones, people can share videos to crosscheck facts (for those willing to seek the truth anyways). the murderer who killed George Floyd would be walking free without a phones with cameras and the internet that allows this to get spread.
2nd panel (2010) is valid tho
As for pandemic? Y’all didn’t pay attention in history class? Black plague? Only thing that stopped them from going worldwide was the travel technplogy was slower (they didn’t have planes)
4th panel (2024) is very USA-Centric, AFIAK the EU doesn’t have such lawless “grab people off the streets” right now.
Nope, and since our governments are virtually all coalitions it’s much more difficult for something like that to happen here. I’m thankful for the style of government my country has, where everyone needs to make concessions. It has its drawbacks, but it does protect the country against this type of power grab.

2nd panel: in 2010, I think jellyfin didn’t exist yet, so there are now better ways to own media, too
