&#8230; he thought a mature totalitarian system would so deform its citizenry that they would not be able to overthrow it.
Orwell may have gotten it right. Some citizens have overthrown totalitarian governments. But dictatorship does correlate with minds incapable of overthrowing it. Which came first?
