Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber barons cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. - Clive Staples "CS" Lewis
CS Lewis is one of my favorite thinkers. From Enviro-fundamentalists to Marxists and Fascists in the identity politics game, to judges and lawyers and leftist radicals who threaten the very fabric of our democracy, I say "Go away and take your perversion with you." They are all the same threat. People who become so convinced of their own righteousness - falsely - that they believe they have not only the right, but the obligation to torment me for my own good.
