Annotation in original language:
A Slovenian jester asked rhetorically, “Did someone say totalitarianism?!” The comedian replied to his rhetorical question with a parody of the dialectical identity of opposites, applying the slippery slope of logical fallacy that moves concepts step by step from one extreme to another (e.g., if ten is approximately nine, as nine is approximately eight, and so on, the fallacy concludes gradually that ten equals negative ten), to reach an Orwellian conclusion that the totalitarian idea creates space for potential freedom, and that the concept of totalitarianism is used to suppress dissent.
