    "I came to America because of the great, great freedom which I heard existed in this country. I made a mistake in selecting America as a land of freedom, a mistake I cannot repair in the balance of my life."

      That’s exactly how I feel about it though it obviously wasn’t my choice to come here. Honestly, I feel like there is really no home for me anywhere in the world. That’s a useless thought though. Not like I have the money to go try and find it.

        That feeling is capitalist alienization comrade. There really isn't a "home" anywhere for people anymore since nearly every corner of the Earth has been claimed by capital. It dominates every aspect of our life so totally it's hard to imagine life without it, but one day we will tear it down and see the beautiful world for what it really is.

        the files are full of falsehoods, including the accusation that Einstein was secretly pro-communist.

        I read this as a wikipedia libertarian that cannot believe his science idol Albert Einstein could be communist.
