Charismatic leaders always give youth the authority to rebel, knowing that they can be kept in the dark and are easily swayed. Later, those youth always learn what is really going on, and either they shut up and continue to play along or they rebel against the puppet master and are usually disposed of like useless trash. Much later, the new youth will rebel against them and want to know why they supported suffering. You cannot claim the naivety of youth forever. Be responsible in your actions.
