“The whole system of oppression ... was based on keeping malcontents apart, preventing them from reading each other's eyes and discovering how many of them there were; instilling it into all of them, even into the most dissatisfied, that no one was dissatisfied except for a few doomed individuals, blindly vicious and spiritually bankrupt." ― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956

The wise words of a man who had lived through a communist takeover offers insight as to why it's so important for the left today to try and limit conservatives' ability to communicate online.

What is coming cannot be stopped, all it takes is a few sparks at critical mass and things happen. Can you trace all the reactions that happen in a deflagration? Impossible, there's trillions of chemical reactions that happen in the blink of an eye.

All communist regimes inevitably come to a reckoning with reality. A leader is only as strong as the people that supports him, and the people that support him reflect his character. That relationship gets lost and there is only decay, that relationship is strong, and everything falls into place.

In other words a strong charasmatic leader will have the strongest loyalty, and that loyalty is reflected by the quality of people that gravitate towards such a person.
