Those with the darkest nightmares became the most powerful.
In an age when all the grand ideals have lost credibility, fear of a phantom enemy is all the politicians have left to maintain their power.
A society that believes in nothing is particularly frightened by people who believe in anything, and therefore we lable these people as fundamentalists or fanatics. And they have much greater purchase in terms of the fear they instill in society than they truly deserve.
