Friendly fascism!
Submitted December 10, 2004 - 11:37 pm by John F. EdenIt would be easier to combat overt repression - it's this subtle "manufactured consent" that's a real challenge. The other aspect of this that's not addressed here is the authoritarian personality at both ends of the power equation. These people want give up their freedom to some "stern father" figure. So how do we address it? I think we have to talk to the people who are falling for it and not just talk among ourselves...
