" 'To make a contented slave,' Bailey later wrote, 'it's necessary to make a thoughtless one. It is necessary to darken his moral and mental vision, and, as far as possible, to annihilate the power of reason.' This is why #slaveholders must #control what slaves hear and see and think."

-- Carl #Sagan, Demon Haunted World

Frederick #Bailey was a #slave born in 1820. It's impressive how this applies to #today's #society and its #tech #slaves.
