“The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.” – Henry Louis Mencken
“The average man doesn’t want to be free. He wants to be safe.” - Henry Louis Mencken
The whole aim of practical political science is to… mind fuck you. Keep you confused. Keep you angry. Keep you scared. Keep you in your place… while you are being saved… from the hobgoblins, within, and without. And as long as they can keep you confused, keep your mind in chaos, keep you asking questions that you are afraid to answer, keep you afraid of the truth that you are afraid to know… they are safe.
Read it all and remember, it's all about control.
