Lens of Reason 13 - Censorship
The tool of desperation from an indefensible position.
Censorship is the shield used to hide the deceptions against those who would probe into the dark forbidden secrets of power. It only creates the illusion of social order, as this shield is made of glass and all can see it represents only the weakness and corruption that supports their claimed positions.
Inevitably, as this plague of control grows, it damages everything including the power wielders themselves. Collapse of order will come in due time as this is never sustainable due to the self-inflicted damage.
“A state which dwarfs its men, in order that they may be more docile instruments in its hands even for beneficial purposes--will find that with small men no great thing can really be accomplished.”
― John Stuart Mill, On Liberty
