“It no longer matters whether one is exposed to true information. A person who is demoralized is unable to evaluate true information. The facts mean nothing to him. Even if I overwhelm him with information, with authentic evidence, with documents, with pictures. Even if I take him by force to the Soviet Union and show him a concentration camp, he will refuse to believe it until he gets a kick in his fat ass. When the military boot crushes his balls, then he will understand, but not before. That is the tragic aspect of the situation of demoralization.”
