Many of Us have been exposed to 2 year olds* who seem to be ad hoc members of "Children Of The Corn" : supposed "Innocents" who are nothing of the Sort . Many of Us remind our children that after they finish playing with their toys the must pick the up and return them to their toy boxes or toy baskets whatever the case may be . How many times have we gone into their play room to find a HIDEOUS CHAOS, toys strewn about not by playful Innocence but somehow with the dastardly MALEVOLENCE, as if the positioning of the toys was TACTICAL in Nature, meaning the kids PLANNED such a warlike BATTLEFIELD itself strewn with mines and IED's . We sharply reprimand, "PICK THIS SHIT UP AND PUT IT AWAY --- which is met with, "Will you help me?"
Me and my Generation grew-up "Playing" "Army" . Many of Us had BAGS-FULL* of Army soldiers which we deployed as per the Order of the Films that We viewed with our Veteran Dads . We LEARNED "to Play War" from these Films, which were stunningly prodigious . Here's the thing : We were told to "Pick-Up" after ourselves which translates as a Parental Teaching to BE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR ACTIONS . We heard, YOU MADE THIS MESS NOW PICK IT UP, until our ears bled . We didn't like "wasting time" picking up our toys, BUT WE DID IT NONETHELESS . We did not even DARE to disobey a "Direct Order", {I THINK to our credit} .
I hazard that the Best of us conformed to Obedience at an EARLY Age, mainly out of FEAR of Parental Retribution (to harsh ?) . I mean, whatever --- but you gotta figure that RICH KIDS had no such exposure since their moms had handmaidens to "pick-up" their toys and return them to their proper location of storage .
With the above paragraph in Mind, look at trump and his War .
