Does anyone continue to have the fantasy that we can live in harmony with those who want to have control over EVERY aspect of our lives?
No. This will be corrected in the coming revolution.
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. — C. S. Lewis
As long as there is cable, beer, and chips - yes.
