During Communism's rule in the USSR, the government slowly gained power by having the people spy on each other and having commity members turn their neighbor's in to the reigning powers that be. They used fear to control thoughts and actions to keep people in line. To keep people thinking like each other, dressing like each other. To keep sameness, to squelch individuality, creativity, uniqueness.
