In this episode:

So I was listening to 0x29 and a thought came to me during the part about Moxie and the line that the Saudi recruiter used on him which was the standard refrain of: "You either stand with us, or you stand with the terrorists!" Or "You either stand for surveillance or you stand with the child pornographers."

Can we not just turn that on its head using their own logic and say: "You either stand for privacy and security or you stand with the human rights abusers."

Since the people pushing the big brother agenda only chose to use black and white in their pictures of the world, what happens when the colours are reversed?
