Only people who do not think are not subversive. Thinking is a crime. Jesus is crucified, Socrates is poisoned, Gautam Buddha is stoned. These people have not harmed anybody. They were the most loving, most compassionate human beings possible – but they committed a crime, and the crime’s name is thinking.
No society wants any of its members to think.
Thinking is dangerous.
The society wants robots who simply do whatever is told to them, who cannot say no – that is impossible for them. They are machines.
It is not accidental that every developed society is replacing man by machines. Machines are obedient, never subversive. Have you ever heard of any machine being a revolutionary or a rebel?
It has not happened up to now that we had to crucify a machine.
I am not a machine.
And there is no way of thinking, other than being subversive.
