+    Every system feels the need to frame itself as the good side. When the
+    system fucking sucks there are two options. One: Use fear and demonize
+    opponents to scare people into upholding the system, two: do things to
+    appear slightly less terrible than what opponents say making the system a
+    relative good in the minds of many. As much as the system wants to just
+    kill anyone they dont like they need to do the bare minimum to avoid being
+    caught in a blunt enough manner for the indifferent people to get
+    radicalized. The supporters will uphold no matter what but the
+    indifferent people can tip the scale if they wake up. The system needs to
+    act like it tried and failed and "there is no other way". <b>Often
+    times the issue was caused by the system in the first and nearly it not
+    existing anymore will fix the problem. No need for a mass fix it effort
+    when wounds heal with time when no longer getting stabbed at.</b> In the
+    same book old Syme came from the party never just flat out killed its
+    opponents. It would get a genuine confession out of them first. They take
+    the time to converted thought criminals into moral citizens and only once
+    they are good orthodox citizens and upholders of the system again does

+    Syme's arent the types to actually be able to talk about this type of stuff
+    with. They are about crushing their opponents and keeping the high ground
+    as the moral (even though it doesnt mean much) heros of the world. In their
+    minds they will have always had to do anything they did. Every
+    <i>necessity</i> just so happens to also enable narcissists to control. The
+    concept of not doing something is unthinkable. The concept of not having
+    rulers is unthinkable. Its so mind twisting hearing bright people only be
+    able to think within this framework. A intelligent mind will only be able
+    to produce thoughts within a given framework if limited to it like how a
+    video game is limited to the resolution of its monitor no matter the
+    graphics card.
