we EMPOWER the WORST people in society to MANAGE what they DO NOT UNDERSTAND

the “SCUM” RISES to the TOP …

Dystopias are useful as a kind of cultural warning –  If things continue as they are, this is WHERE we are headed

If we’re no longer interested in imagining EITHER future – the gleaming or the rusted – it’s because we’ve become numb to both possibility and threat.

YOUR “WISHFUL THINKING” of HOPE in the FUTURE (based on the past) is ALMOST as STUPID as YOUR IN-ABILITY to COMPREHEND HOW MUCH MORE WORSE THINGS CAN (are … can … and will) GET …

TOTALITARIAN “TEMPTATION”…

The ROAD to SERFDOM … warned of a new form of despotism enacted in the name of liberation.

every step away from the free market and toward government planning represented a compromise of human freedom generally and a step toward a form of dictatorship–and this is true in all times and places. 

He demonstrated this against every claim that government control was really only a means of increasing social well-being. Hayek said that government planning would make society less liveable, more brutal, more despotic.

Socialism in all its forms is contrary to freedom

Capitalism, he wrote, is the only system of economics compatible with human dignity, prosperity, and liberty. To the extent we move away from that system, we empower the worst people in society to manage what they do not understand.

The essence of totalitarian government, and perhaps the nature of every bureaucracy, is to make functionaries and mere cogs in the administrative machinery out of men, and thus to dehumanize them.

It is through this lens of bureaucracy (which she calls “the rule of Nobody”) as a weapon of totalitarianism

embodied “the dilemma between the unspeakable horror of the deeds and the undeniable ludicrousness of the man who perpetrated them.”

eliberate disconnect from reality with what she calls “holes of oblivion.” (Today, we call them “alternative facts”

simply too many people in the world to make oblivion possible. One man will always be left alive to tell the story.

“FINAL” SOLUTIONS …

sobering reflection on “the lesson that this long course in human wickedness had taught us — the lesson of the fearsome, word-and-thought-defying banality of evil.”

while acts of evil can mushroom into monumental tragedies, the individual human perpetrators of those acts are often marked not with the grandiosity of the demonicbut with absolute mundanity.

Joseph Brodsky  our greatest antidote to evil“What we regard as Evil is capable of a fairly ubiquitous presence if only because it tends to appear in the guise of good.”

We live in a culture where one of the greatest social disgraces is not having an opinion, so we often form our “opinions” based on superficial impressions or the borrowed ideas of others, without investing the time and thought that cultivating true conviction necessitates.
