Machiavelli, wrote the Prince, in which he asks the question is it better for a Prince to be loved or feared by the people.
His conclusion was that fear was the best, for it concentrated the populace's mind more than love.
Fear of Brexit, fear of war, fear of economic collapse, fear of climate change, fear keeps people in line. Divide along age, sex, race, religion. If the means, to control does not exist then create it. Create fear and diversions to suit your agenda .
One thing never changes the establishment, they are always there, just as Cameron popped up and Andrew Bailey goes from failure to failure, just two examples from so many.
There is nothing to fear except fear its self.
