People want to believe the Big Lie. The haircut that looks great on someone else is what he or she wants for himself or herself. What’s missing in their lives, they believe, is what someone else has, “just right over there.” People will believe this lie right up to the point where they are hunted down like animals and shot in the street, with or without their children in tow.
At first blush, the simple truth can be painful as hell to hear.
