The original, altruistic intentions and noble-sounding slogans of [Socialists] are irrelevant. Once they are no longer constrained by law, it’s just a matter of time—and usually a very brief time—before they become tyrants. Initially their tyrannical actions will be directed at their political opposition, and then at anyone who criticizes or even questions them.
At the end of Arthur Koester’s 1940 novel Darkness at Noon, the protagonist Rubashov is so worn down with the interrogations that he accepts his fate with the following rationalization and resignation.
"And so every leap of technical progress brings with it a relative intellectual regression of the masses, a decline in their political maturity.

The FDA has rejected its strongest safety warning for Covid mRNA vaccines despite acknowledging that children were killed by the products.
This news surfaced during a televised Bloomberg interview with FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, who said the agency has “no plans” to apply its strongest safety warning to Covid mRNA vaccines.
In that interview, Makary confirmed that the FDA’s own safety and epidemiology centre had formally recommended a boxed warning — a step reserved, under FDA rules, for drugs with “special problems, particularly ones that may lead to death or serious injury.”
