Since you read that, the internet archive does so much more than just preserving knowledge, it’s one of those places that has helped me a lot. If you think what they’re doing is neat and are passionate about preserving all human information please donate to the Internet Archive:

You know what? I actually hope they’re right, and I AM just a paranoid conspiracy theorist/tinfoil hat wearing nutter, because if I’m not…then my biggest fears about the direction this country is taking, will soon be our reality. And it won’t be good for any of us regular people.

“The notion that every single human being – regardless of their peculiarities and their strangenesses and sins and crimes and all of that – has something divine in them that needs to be regarded with respect, plays an integral role…in the creation of habitable order out of chaos. It’s a magnificent, remarkable and crazy idea…. And I do firmly believe that it sits at the base of our legal system. I think it is the cornerstone of our legal system. That’s the notion that everyone is equal before God. That’s such a strange idea. It’s very difficult to understand how anybody could have ever come up with that idea, because the manifold differences between people are so obvious and so evident that you could say the natural way of viewing someone, or human beings, is in this extremely hierarchical manner where some people are contemptible and easily brushed off as pointless and pathological and without value whatsoever, and all the power accrues to a certain tiny aristocratic minority at the top. But if you look at the way that the idea of individual sovereignty developed…it became something that was fixed in the imagination that each individual had something of transcendent value about them. And, man, I can tell you — we dispense with that idea at our serious peril.”
