'The message our herd-driving modernity sends out to the multitudes is arbitrary and therefore despotic: “You must obey what we say for as long as we keep saying it, regardless of how stupid it may be. Tomorrow we may say something else, and you’ll obey that too, even if it contradicts what we’re saying today.”

Wasn't that one of the main themes of the book 1984 ?

I am often reminded of ‘Fahrenheit 451’ as well. The book burning, the dumbed-down people staring at idiotic television walls, the government destroying history. Our government is siding with the anarchists. They are assisting the madness by doing nothing.
