    Part of the issue is past revolutions didn’t have a ruling class that literally employed the best psychologists that money can buy

    They absolutely did, except they weren’t called psychologists and they were much less effective.

      So literally not the same thing, then?

        Well if it’s not literally not the same thing, then it has zero bearing on the situation!

        Absolutism is the death of intelligent discourse.

        If I call it a trowel and you call it a spade, they’re not different things.

        If mine is made of paper and yours is made of aluminum, they’re still not different things.
