That's like saying that neither tepid bath water nor boiling tea water are "cold."
I don't actually agree that your analogy applies, because it ignores my point.
Neither "side" (as if there were only a binary choice but that's how they want you to think) wants you to have privacy. Be united with those who want to fight for those rights instead of divided on other policies which are political smokescreens.
Maybe a better analogy is that we are drowning in water that is not cold, maybe it's tepid and maybe its boiling. But arguing over which is worse really doesn't matter because we'll be dead in a minute anyway.
My life would be much worse if I lived through a boiling water bath than if I managed to live through a room temperature bath, so very good analogy.
The eugenicists running the country have cooked it already so even if we survive it's still horribly damaged forever.
