"Little Brother" sounds an optimistic warning. It extrapolates from current events to remind us of the ever-growing threats to liberty.

We must see each other's strengths and encourage those strengths....We must see each others weaknesses and be patient with those weaknesses... sometimes even look beyond what we see as "weaknesses" and move on with compassion and love and respect. That takes true faith.
