I begin to get the picture. We’re not to be individuals here with the right to independent thought. We’re to choose up sides. If we happen on one day to agree with one faction on one topic, then henceforward we must continue to march in lockstep with that faction on all topics and never “hear” or acknowledge what another faction says about anything, much less agree with it. That's it in a nutshell. If you don't go along, they'll pick at your entrails like vultures until all that's left of you is skin and bones, or you run for the hills and never return. I didn't post that piece from MacBeth for nothing. It's a witches brew.
