Totalitarianism Destroys Itself - Just Don't Let It Take You Down With It - Matias Desmit

“The people who articulate a dissonant voice might not be able to wake up the masses, but that doesn’t mean that their voice has no effect. It has an extremely important effect; it constantly disturbs the mass formation. And that [prevents] the mass formation [from going] so deep that the people in the mass become convinced that they have to eliminate, that they have to destroy the people who do not go along with them.”

“Mass Formation Is Not Similar to Hypnosis; It’s Identical”

“The first and foremost task is to keep speaking out. Everything stands
or falls with the act of speaking out. It is in the interest of all parties. The
specific manner in which the act of speaking out takes place—in books,
publications or interviews, in front of the cameras, in shops or at the
kitchen table, in the company of a limited or large group of people—is of
less importance; everyone who, in his own way, speaks out about the truth,
contributes to the cure of the ailment that is totalitarianism.”
