When an authoritarian structure breaks down it isn't pretty.
It's hard to believe that the gasbags tried to convince us for years that these were the grownups, isn't it?

When an authoritarian structure breaks down it isn't pretty. The participants are underdeveloped personalities who lose it when the daddy figures aren't around. And they are losing it.

1. Likewise, when it doesn't break down, it's rather ugly.
In fact, it's much prettier when it's broken down. Don't you think?

2. Watching them self destruct does not make me sad.
