Sounds like an enormous generalization that simply can't be true. I mean, where does this particular rabbit hole even end? Some people are more aware and, dear I say, woke than others. We can't all be closeted and repressed, even if some obviously are.
So according to Strauss, nothing is as it seems, there is not truth, up is down... wait, that describes the current political climate in the world! Oh dear...
But it would also mean that I'm something like an extremely orthodox literalist christian and a super-phobic nazi, so maybe there's not all that much to it.
I have looked around, and I see that capitalism doesn't work. That's why I may be a communist.
