Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
— C.S. Lewis
Thanks for re-posting that C.S. Lewis quote; I was recalling it when I posted my rant.
I dont know how it got posted three times, but i’d recommend the third, since it is probably the most accurate reflection of my sentiments
