Authoritarianism: The Lie That Powers It How they control you with fear and promise of protection

Every authoritarian movement starts with the same promise, (the same lie):
We'll protect you from them.

They make you afraid of "them" so they can control you. While your attention stays fixed on the threat they've invented, they quietly take your rights, your resources, your ability to fight back.

Musk is staging a coup! Who is stopping him??
