Just warning him how the uninformed masses would likely react instinctively.

And I’m just reminding that we hear that. A lot. And it always feeds confusion, conspiracy and mistrust.
We lowly peasants survived being exposed to the horror of the holocaust. And still there’s those who want to claim it never happened. How much stronger are those claims going to be when 60% is kept in the dark as we’ve been told it “must”?
My contention is that we are stronger and of sterner stuff than supposed and assumed. And what we don’t know *will* bite us in the ass again.
The ancient evil has been attacked before. And it keeps coming back. Might that be because parts of it are always deemed just too ugly to let the general public see so it’s allowed to grow and spread again, once that generation of watch dogs pass away because the gen pop dosn’t know the signs to watch out for?
Sometimes its to save face. Sometimes its to keep from enraging the crowds. Sometimes its to keep from starting a panic. But there’s always a reason, as reasonable and pure of intent as may be, to hide away the worst of it. And it always comes back.
Maybe it doesn’t really matter if some is hidden or not. Maybe it’s just part of the eternal struggle. Clean out what can be cleaned out and watch as best we can for as long as we can and hope for the best.
But, personally, I am really tired and fed up with those appointed over us deciding what we can handle and what we can’t. Like we’re sub-juvenile children that must be swaddled against the cool breezes of life.
Dig my friend. PM me. I am game. I want to know it all!
“We lowly peasants survived being exposed to the horror of the holocaust. “
HEar, Hear Grimmy. I think there should be a certain amount of practice similar to what the Allies did when they forced the Germans out of their towns to go and look at what had been done in the camps. Rubbing their noses in it, as it were. Not that I think that was necessarily fair, the townspeople didn’t know what was going on in the camps, and it would have been hazardous not to say suicidal to go out there and start asking questions. At least, as far as I’ve been taught.
