Fascist dichotomy: the "others" are both strong and weak at the same time.

Just like immigrants are both "lazy" and "taking all the jobs" at the same time.

Highly skilled North Korean hackers / a population of starving and downtrodden farmers who eat dirt for dinner.

Is this a contradiction? 99% of people are starving farmers who eat dirt for dinner and 1% are chosen from birth to be taught nothing other than how to hack the West
