This WHOLE thing is BAFFLING and TERRIFYING to me, as a MAN of 50 years of age, having been TAUGHT about human rights, ethics etc.. Being WARNED, in high-school about things like "Lord of the Flies", "1984" and so on...
Younger generations seem to have no idea, of the DANGER of governments getting too powerful, of people accepting CENSORSHIP, normalizing it (think 'cancel culture') and so on!
People are behaving more and more like tribal animals and it's all being normalized!
Social Media is making everything worse!
I have seen ppl get riled up in groups, young and adult....there are many dangerous factors (Herd-mentality, group mentality, bullying, kids who aren't fully developed yet, fears, fight or flight response, bystander effect and so on and on)... The thing that freaks me out, is when police, lawyers and entire JUSTIC E SYSTEM, not only fails but becomes the BULLY! Becomes the tyrant, instead of the ETHICAL savior of citizens!
This was ALL warned/taught in books like "Animal Farm" about POWER CORRUPTING and how, through VERY SUBTLE beginnings, like changing the meaning or law about WORDS, the right to SAY 'WORDS" or NOT to say them....and how it's ALWAYS a SLIPPERY SLOPE TO DISASTER!!!
