Thanks BfloGuy.Herodotus recounts one such transformation that took only a single generation to complete. When the Lydians, ferocious warriors, revolted against their Persian overlords, their deposed king, Croesus, to keep the Persian ruler Cyrus from obliterating his people by dispersing them into slavery, suggested a less drastic way to ensure they'd never fight him again. Disarm them, he advised; dress them in women's tunics and soft boots, teach them to play the lyre and the harp, and turn their sons into shopkeepers. "You will soon see that they will become women instead of men," Croesus prophesied, "and they will then pose no danger or threat to you of any future rebellion." And indeed, Herodotus concludes, "the Lydians changed their entire way of living." |

What we have are never ending leftist definitions of victims who are then educated by the left to vote themselves the fruits of others' labor from the depleated public till.
