      They have to try. That’s the problem with any tyrant’s rise to power - they have to fight against knowledge in any way shape or form.

      If people know too much about anything, they don’t have the power they desire. It’s why Mao, Stalin, Hitler, a good chunk of SE Asia, etc did their purges of intellectuals. They can’t afford to have people say anything counterproductive to their grip on power.
