The Tocsin

Getting cozy with evil.  Because I probably need to read Berlin Diary and re-read Ten Days That Shook the World and some basic 20th century history and Orwell.  Also, a spoonful of sugar, etc.

The mother has read the supplement to this story distributed by the Ogre Council. Tomorrow morning, she will point out to the children how this story demonstrates the openness and freedom of the new regime. "Some legal authorities" are "deeply uneasy." You see, children? she will say to them. A few people -- a few very bad people -- say that you cannot challenge the Ogre. But that's obviously not true. People do challenge him, and their objections are even printed in the official Ogre paper.
