@dictatordave Most people are terrified of being responsible for themselves. They want a benevolent dictator to shepherd them instead.
@dictatordave They don't need convincing. I've seen plenty of drone footage from when I was playing in the sandbox where the Taliban/ISIS/etc rolls into a village has 2 guys herd all the men to the nearest ditch and shoot them one by one in the head. Only reason there's 2 guys is because it's easier if one guy loads mags while the other domes people and gives the corpse a shove in the right direction.
I'll never forget dozens of people waiting in line patiently to get shot in the head.
