Absolutely. Thanks for reading @lightobserver.
I have committed a lot of my work to fleshing out how authoritarian abuses in childhood lead to destructive civilizations, and I am extremely glad that other people like you also recognize this.
Are you familiar with the work of Alice Miller by chance? Her book "For Your Own Good," really rams a lot of these points home.
No problem man. Keep up the good work! And no I'm not familiar of her work but ill put it on my list of books to read. Thanks for the recommendation.
