A man is born with bondage around his legs, and his has great difficulty moving, but he can still sort of shimmy along, never able to make a full stride. None of the police or politicians tell him he can simply take off the bondage, he doesn't realize it's hampering his movement. Eventually he is even told that without the bondage, he could not walk at all, that it is in fact the bondage which allows him to move, that without it he would die or be killed. His boss and politicians tell him this, who also wear the bondage, but are completely convinced that it allows them to walk. After awhile the man wants to defend his binds, fearful of ever losing them, he will even kill and die for them, never wanting to lose the everlasting comfort and stability.

Sounds like the Alex Jones cult with their conspiracy theories, thinking they're fighting for something, when in fact they're only fighting for a different color of the same bondage.
