The Reader’s inability to find the truth makes him question whether all political ideologies are the same, leading to the same forms of repression. This illustrates the consequences of following Marana’s thinking to its logical extreme, and how it can cause a person to doubt everything around them. While this chapter does explore how oppression can take on many forms within different ideologies, it does not necessarily suggest that all political ideologies are the same—just that it might seem that way to someone as jaded about the concept of truth as Marana.
