Actually, it's easy. All governments are bad guys.
Well, maybe a few aren't, but if you start by assuming they're bad guys then you'll be pleasantly surprised if you turn out to be wrong.

I keep looking for the words "feeb", "shadow" or "pathetic" in your post, but I can't find them. Surely there's some kind of mistake?
