      What's hilarious (or depressing) is that nearly 100 years ago now Americans still had these fucking brainworms. In 1936 Anna Louise Strong wrote:

      Most Americans shrink from the word "dictatorship." "I don't want to be dictated to," they say. Neither, in fact, does anyone. But why do they instinctively take the word in its passive meaning, and see themselves as the recipients of orders? Why do they never think that they might be the dictators? Is that such an impossible idea? Is it because they have been so long hammered by the subtly misleading propaganda about personal dictatorships, or is it because they have been so long accustomed to seek the right to life through a boss who hires them, that the word dictatorship arouses for them the utterly incredible picture of one man giving everybody orders?

      amerikkkans have never had a mindset of taking matters into their own hands and being the ones to dictate their society.
