Encyclopaedia Britannica Films produced this 1946 educational film to warn us about the signs that your community is sliding into despotism.

Two of the conditions which have historically promoted the growth of despotism are explained and exemplified. These are a slanted economic distribution and a strict control of the agencies of communication.(via Boing Boing)
