Frustration and Understanding

The need to understand, to make sense of whats going on,is far reaching in its expression. Even reasonable, kindly people can become hostile and angry when they cannot comprehend material that seems to be necessary to functioning. In fact, there are times when such frustration is readily apparent even when the failure to understand would seem to have little immediate consequence. Occasionally one can witness such reaction when individuals view 'modern' art that fails to make sense to them.
Indoctrination is the essence of democracy.
