Naomi Wolf had a long thread, meditating on how Germany created a two-tier society, and how that could lead to what it led to. I don't think we're there. But setting up two-tier societies has never led to anything good in any part of Western History.

You have to be grade A stupid to think this is the society you want to craft. And if you do want to craft that society, you haven't read any history books, and you'll be dangerous to me and mine in the future.
I don't like play-acting authoritarians. Not even on the Internet.
