CS Lewis The Abolition of Man: Benjamin McLean, Neil Shenvi - Prager U:
Men without chests
Green Book versus Tao
Tao broadly as "the doctrine of objective value, the belief that certain attitudes are really true, and others really false, to the kind of thing the universe is and the kind of things we are."
Conditioners: The Elite Controllers, Outside Morality, They decide what values to implant in others, like programmers coding software.
The Conditioned: The Manipulated Masses, Through debunking emotions as "just feelings," education becomes propaganda, not virtue-building. People calculate benefits but can't defend ideals; everything's negotiable, including dignity. Outcome: No real freedom – shaped by fear, pleasure, or ads. Lewis: "We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honour and are shocked to find traitors in our midst."
