„One thing that characterized the Communist state was that no one got to say anything they really believed, ever. That’s because one in three people were informers. That was a lovely society, and it only killed about 30 million people between 1919 and 1959. That’s what happens when the archetypal structure of society gets tilted badly, and when people forget that they have a responsibility to fulfill as citizens who are awake and capable of stating the truth. The archetype shifts so there’s nothing left of the great father except for the tyrant.“

— Jordan Peterson
