50. I want to hope that's true

But then again, I have people in my family who were raised the same way that I was raised. And yet they have gone to the Darkside. It’s a thought that’s been repeated over and over as we have seen this horrible man divide families and friends. It makes one reflect upon how easily people can be manipulated, and weakness exploited. He brings out the worst of human nature. The selfish and the hateful and resentful that perhaps resides deep within us all. And the fear. I think he exploits fear most of all. Fear of losing place and fear of influence and fear of the other.
