The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum - even encourage the more critical and dissident views. That gives people the sense that there’s free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate.

Why did Noam have to do it? Why? Who’s next, Zizek? I know it’s just an adhom, but still. Why ever even have leftist?
I also wish I wasn’t filled with anger all the time to actually communicate effectively and convince people of my arguments.
