Absolute Power Does Not Corrupt Absolutely, Absolute

The Mistakes (of Leaders) Are Amplified By The Numbers Who Follow Them Without Question. Charismatic Leaders Tend To Build Up Followings, Power Structures And These Power Structures Tend To Be Taken Over By People Who Are Corruptible.

The Oppressed Always Learned From And Copied The Oppressor. When The Tables Were Turned, The Stage Was Set For Another Round Of Revenge And Violence -- Roles Reversed. And Reversed And Reversed Ad Nauseam.

My Father Once Told Me That Respect For Truth Comes Close To Being The Basis For All Morality. 'something Cannot Emerge From Nothing,' He Said. This Is Profound Thinking If You Understand How Unstable 'the Truth' Can Be.
