An unfortunate computer programmer found out his girlfriend was cheating on him when the parrot kept repeating her paramour's name.
The broken-hearted computer programmer dumped both girlfriend and parrot in one fell swoop. You can't tell lovers anything.
The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum. That gives people the sense that there's free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate.
