Orion Empire and Free Will

[jafar]

Correct.  The Orion Group needs to have their "subjects" willfully enslave themselves through deception.  Enslavement by force doesn't get the job done, because there is no love sent from the slaves/subjects to their masters and thus perpetual friction in their relationship.

Contrast:

Slavery pre-civil war in the US where there was no love by the slaves towards their masters, and it eventually and inevitably fell apart because the slaves were unwilling.  No deception, no willingness.

vs.

The British Royal family in a parade with everyone cheering them singing "God Save the Queen", or Papal visits where the people think they are cheering God's chosen one.  The deception creates love sent from the subjects to their masters, which makes the relationship easy and long-lasting.

I tend to agree, but the example of today's british royal family and papacy might not be an exact match.
Today those two examples are in a state of 'lacking of control over others' which from STS perspective considered to be a 'degradation of polarity' a.k.a weak.

Need to pull the lever of time and projected in back few centuries back, medieval era.
Back when serfdom and absolute monarchy were the dominant system in Britain and for the papacy back to the era of the crusade.

During 'holy' crusade era, the papacy didn't invade Jerusalem themselves, instead they asked others to do the invasion / crusade for them. First by instigating demonization of the enemy (#hatred) and then promising heavenly rewards / 100% sin discount to those who do (#guilt #manipulation). In parallel also reminding the threat of God's wrath (#fear) for those who refused or even reject their command / instruction.
