Mattias Desmet
“Totalitarianism and technocracy like to present themselves as the pinnacle of rationality and science.”
Mattias Desmet, The Psychology of Totalitarianism

James  Tunney
“We are giving power to people we do not know, for purposes we cannot prove, for exercise we cannot control while assuming they must be benign and beneficent without evidence and without scrutinising the circumstances of our blank cheque to them that we signed in the blood from relinquished control of our bodies. Giving the keys to the dungeon to these strangers in suits or jeans and white coats and expecting benevolence not evident in their belief system and rejected as irrelevant thereby, is the greatest common exercise in folly in human history.”
James Tunney, TechBondAge: Slavery of the Human Spirit
