I honestly think we’re all too controlled. You don’t have to go full-on dictator to keep people from rising up. Instilling a strong sense of blind patriotism in the politically conservative people, along with a blanket “violence is always bad” sentiment in the more progressive people, keeps everyone pacified. Half of the people are convinced that everything’s fine because the government said so, and the other half are too scared to fight.
No, they’re too controlled.

I agree. No one should blindly support any government.
