times of the signs
of the Scientific Dictatorship
.
In his 1951 essay, The Impact of Science on Society, Bertrand Russell
wrote that the most important science of the future would be
''mass psychology ... taken up by scientists under a scientific
dictatorship.'' He said that ''the influence of
[the] home is obstructive'' and that ''indoctrination'' must begin
''before the age of ten.'' He warned, ''Although
this science of mass psychology will be diligently studied, it will be
rigidly confined to the governing class. The populace will not be
allowed to know how its convictions are generated. When the technique
has been perfected, every government that has been in charge of
education for a generation will be able to control its subjects
securely without the need of armies or policemen…”
"In our dreams, people yield themselves with perfect docility to our molding hands. The present education conventions of intellectual and character education fade from their minds, and, unhampered by tradition, we work our own good will upon a grateful and responsive folk. We shall not try to make these people, or any of their children, into philosophers, or men of science. We have not to raise up from them authors, educators, poets or men of letters. We shall not search for great artists, painters, musicians nor lawyers, doctors, preachers, politicians, statesmen - of whom we have an ample supply. The task is simple. We will organize children and teach them in a perfect way the things their fathers and mothers are doing in an imperfect way."
John D. Rockefeller General Education Board (1906)
We’ve been brought into a stage of non-existence - a stage with where we're so unhappy with being human we'll give it all up.
If you really truly think that that's the case, then give up now and switch on your television set and watch some soap or some happy comedy that's screaming in its canned laughter and go on your merry way. However, for those who can think and understand and have a potential of humanity, go further because you can't give it up. You must go further.
This is the crucial battle.
