More lessons in ‘How to Be a Tyrant:’
- Pose as the only honest individual. Characterize politics as trivial and inherent corrupt.
- By labeling all politicians as corrupt, blame the people for voting for the corrupt. This provides legitimacy for repression of the people.
- Set unrealistic aspirations for ethnic minorities and then criticize them as lazy and corrupt when those aspirations of course are crushed.
- Call for an end to politics in the issue of national unity. That national unity is identical to the interests of the tyrants. The interests of any other people are just political and therefore corrupt and selfish.
There is and is not a great deal going on today, by which I mean that out on the mean streets of the City of Angels there are hard-faced men planning violence and mayhem and others hoping to exploit the chaos for their own ends. Shameless media hacks misrepresent the truth and slur the honest. All manners of things occur and what they are I do not know but they are the terrors of the earth. On the other hand, I am so busy with continuing commitments that I have little time to think of new ideas or projects. Hence, from a creative point of view, nothing much is happening.
