“As students go hazily from class to class,box to box, schooling as a technique of social control perpetuates itself. And asleftists drone on about better education forthe people, for the masses of people, they areunaware of what an important role they playin reproducing existent social and economicformations.”

 (San Francisco, California: AK Press, 1996), 321: “Throughout the first years of our lives we wereforced not just to internalize a few aspects of capital, but to build up a structure of internalizations.As our capacity for coherent natural self-regulation was systematically broken down, a new systemof self regulation took its place, a coherent system, incorporating all the aspects of self-repression.We participated in capital’s ongoing project of colonization by colonizing ourselves, by continuallyworking at the construction of a unitary character-structure (character armor), a unitary defenseagainst all drives, feelings, and desires which we learned were dangerous to express. In the placeof our original transparent relations to our world, we created a structure of barriers to our self-expression which hides us from ourselves and others.”
