(n.) Any arrest without a warrant or witnessed crime made without any charges filed, no access to a lawyer, no civil protections, and no possibility of a trial in the foreseeable future, made possible by the PATRIOT Act (a US law that is still the cause of polarizing controversy) and used to accuse innocent people of being terrorists because they work as a cashier in a store that a captured terrorist used to shop at (or something equally pointless).
Every time that a Patriot Act arrest is made, America walks further along the path of self-destruction.

Get the Patriot Act arrest mug.a phrase used to describe the supposed "guru" of entrepreneurship who's made a "significant" contribution to the tech and cosmetic industries. Known for his "innovative and creative ideas," a "Sven Patzer" may make young entrepreneurs feel better about themselves by allowing them to believe that they too could be "successful." However, it's important to note that most of the "innovations" he's known for are just the same old concepts with a different marketing strategy. So, a "Sven Patzer" is really just a fancy term for someone who's good at selling stuff.
I heard that Joe is trying to be the next Sven Patzer, but all he does is post motivational quotes on Instagram and makes bad PowerPoint presentations.

Get the Patriot Act mug.Probably the biggest example of how fascist America is becoming. An act supported by millions of Bush-loving nut job super-conservatives who are afraid that terrorits have infiltrated America. The Patriot Act allows the NSA,CIA,FBI,ATF,DEA,DHS and law enforcement to spy on you. Includes phone taps, internet records, spy satellites,etc.
(NSA agent) "Look, that guy wrote an article about how President Bush is a tyrant. He may be a terrorist!"
(Donald Rumsfeld) "Good work. Another threat nabbed by the Patriot Act!"

Get the El Patron mug.The act of allegiance to a cause without clear thought, a complete one sided agreement of committing loyalty.
One of the biggest brainwashing techniques used and exposes the true gullibility of people to accepting such nonsense from their government.
Most obvious in the United States of America. See Brainwashed.
People are brought up with the thought the U.S. is clearly better than everyone else in the world and all that crap about how it's the "greatest country in the world" even when the people saying this have never been outside the U.S.
No matter how many bad things our government does, they will defend them because, it's their home country. We saw this when the people didn't think twice about the Patriot Act.
This is why people in America let such war criminals stay in power and don't even bother trying to shake the corruption. Their indoctrination through youth and don't even think about it, they see everything completely one sided. They will always make excuses how this is the land of the "free" and it's not a communist country as if that means the U.S. is completely free of corruption and imperialism.
Governments are not the only example, it happens in religion too. Especially if you are raised in a specific religion and taught the mindset, it is clearly blind patriotism when thinking one sided and not looking at the full table and thinking rationally and having second thoughts.
