“Now I will tell you the answer to what's going on and it is this...
The Democratic Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. It is not interested in the good of others; it's interested solely in power, pure raw absolute power. What pure power means is tearing human minds to pieces and putting them together again in new shapes of your own choosing.
We are different from the oligarchies of the past in that we know what we are doing. All the others, even those who resembled ourselves, were cowards and hypocrites. The German Nazis and the Russian Communists came very close to us in their methods, but they never had the courage to recognize their own motives.
They pretended, perhaps they even believed, that they had seized power unwillingly and for a limited time, and that just around the corner there lay a paradise where human beings would be free and equal. We are not like that. We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship.
Equal opportunities does not equal same results. People are vastly different. Intelligence, talent, ambition, work ethic, commitment, perseverance and imagination, varies from people to people. You cannot change that. But you can make them automatons and force compliance by finding their individual pressure points and squeeze.
The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Power is everything. Now you begin to understand me.”
