The saddest thing.

[fpb]

The saddest thing is that when, in a few months or years, all those of my friends who have committed their emotion and excitement and happines and spiritual joy to their LJs today, come back and read them again, most of them are likely to look for excuses rather than to say honestly: "We were in a mood to be deceived, and we let ourselves be deceived. This was done with our willing collaboration." They will blame people like me, or political opponents, or the Jews - anything rather than admit that they asked, begged, sought to be deceived.

Of course people don't want to admit that they're wrong after the fact. What are you, new?

I did not say that I will be surprised. To the contrary: I said that I see it coming already. And your manner is rather more arrogant than the ordinariness of your insight warrants.
