"They will take ___ from you" or "They want to ____ (fill in the blank) are statements tossed around daily. Between word salads, invectives, censorship, minimalization, and "Chicken Little" phrases, we are inundated with statements attempting to elicit fear, division, and the vilification of groups or entire segments of our society. Some messages may contain valid warnings or information. But they are lost in the cacophony of voices and messages - intentionally or inadvertently. If we are not vigilant, we will not know which. Our world has become a veritable message salad. Join us as we step into the brackish waters looking for alligators. Buckle up. It's messy.

Political Uses of Fear, Anger, Hatred - Amor sceleratus habendi - (The Love of Having a Villain)
See Foster, B.O. Titus Livius (Livy), The History of Rome, Book 3
So difficult is it to be moderate in the defense of liberty, since everyone, while pretending to seek fair play, so raises himself as to press another down; while insuring themselves against fear, men actually render themselves fearful to others; and having defended ourselves from an injury, we proceed —as though it were necessary either to do or suffer wrong —to inflict injury upon our neighbor.
-Titus Livius(Livy), The History of Rome, Book 3 - Chapter 65.11
