From Inflammatory Essays by Jenny Holzer, 1979-82 #authoritarianism #tyranny #autocracy #oligarchy #trump
An excerpt from inflammatory essays by Jenny Holzer from 1979: fear is the most elegant weapon. Your hands are never messy. Threatening, bodily harm as crude. Work instead on minds and beliefs, play insecurities, like a piano. Be creative and approach. Force anxiety to excruciating levels or gently undermine the public confidence. Panic drives human herds over cliffs an alternative is terror induced immobilization. Fear feeds on fear. Put this efficient process in motion. Manipulation is not limited to people. Economic, social, and Democratic institutions can be shaken. It will be demonstrated that nothing is safe, sacred or sane. There is no respite from horror. Absolute are Quicksilver. Results are spectacular.
