People are too busy convincing themselves that the lies they have been fed really are true, and need someone else to affirm it for them.
I'm truly sorry. If people would just -- Stay Home. Save Lives. They would all be heroes..
But no, they really think they are being oppressed, as if they even have a clue what oppression looks like. They think their freedom is being compromised, as if they ever knew what freedom meant in the first place.
I"m truly sorry, but people have to hear that little echo in their echo chamber, they get really sensitive when confronted by such things as facts.
SO I agree with your call to order and civility...but, I just don't think it will happen.
People don't realize that to truly be free, people actually have to GIVE something toward the common cause of freedom. Otherwise, one is free while the other is impressed. They'll never understand, ergo, they'll never be peaceful posters.
When you ban books before you ban guns, you've admitted that you're more afraid of children learning than you are of children dying.
