How we cite our quotes: (Part.Chapter.Line)
Quote #10
Young men and women, educated very carefully to be apolitical, making them putty in the hands of their rulers, just like always. It was appalling how stupid they were, really, and he could not help lashing into them.
He left to cheers. (6.5.47-48)
Of course, we decided the last quote just had to deal with politics. When people identify themselves as apolitical, what they're really saying is that it's okay for someone else to decide their lives for them. Frank sees this as a slavish type of identity.
