Very good insight here, and a warning.
...consider, as Eric Voegelin taught us, that the common feature of all totalitarian systems is neither concentration camps, nor secret police, nor mass surveillance—as horrifying as all these are. The common feature of all totalitarian systems is the prohibition of questions: every totalitarian regime first monopolizes what counts as rationality and determines what questions you are allowed to ask.
At the risk of offending my audience I will suggest: if you don’t see that precisely this is happening on an unprecedented scale globally, you have not been paying close attention. If you still remain skeptical, consider Polish philosopher Leszek Kolakowski’s brilliant formulation to describe the totalitarian method of imposing unity on an entire population: perfect integration through perfect fragmentation. Mull over this phrase while you watch T.V. or scroll social media: perfect integration through perfect fragmentation. ...
Now, with clearer vision, you can look again at what happened to Tucker Carlson (and now, his entire staff.)

F/u/k/r Carlson SWORE up and down, of course when he was employed, there was ABSOLUTELY no Election theft in 2020 and 2022.
Carlson deserves everything he got. Sell your Soul and STILL lose your job. Great strategic forward-thinking insight, Tucker. Way to be an @/$/$-kisser AND patsy sap AND lose your job all at the same one-dimensional-thinking time.
Have absolutely NO use for Tucker"Benedict Arnold" Carlson.
