Loneliness is personal, and it is also political and it has been used as the chief weapon and the chief damage of oppressive political regimes. The totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi⦠but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction (i.e., the reality of experience) and the distinction between true and false (i.e., the standards of thought) no longer exist. The tyrannical form ruins all relationships between men, so the self-compulsion of ideological thinking ruins all relationships with reality. The preparation has succeeded when people have lost contact with their fellow men. What is your take on that ?
