Wednesday’s Piece

“The fact that internal squabbles are suppressed by the existence of a common enemy has not escaped the attention of rulers past and present. If an overgrown super-tribe is beginning to split at the seams, the splits can rapidly be stitched up by the appearance of a powerful hostile THEM that converts us into a unified US.”

(From The Human Zoo by Desmond Morris, 1928 – )

John Lentell
