Whenever those states which have been acquired as stated have been accustomed to live under their own laws and in freedom, there

are three courses for those who wish to hold them: the first is to ruin them, the next is to reside there in person, the third is to permit them to live under their own laws, drawing a tribute, and establishing within it an oligarchy which will keep it friendly to you. Because such a government, being created by the prince, knows that it cannot stand without his friendship and interest, and does its utmost to support him; and therefore he who would keep a city accustomed to freedom will hold it more easily by the means of its own citizens than in any other way.

siniylev [52]

Answer:

The answers:

He talked down to Christoffels.

He ridiculed and called Christoffels names.

Explanation:

This is in relation to a story in the book "The Hiding Place" authored by Corrie Ten Boom. This story is a biography on Boom's life during the war in Holland.

Otto was a young German who was also a Nazist. He was as an apprentice to Boom's father, who is a watchmaker. When Otto becomes an apprentice under Boom's Father, the family realized the effect of Nazism as Otto proudly often states that he was in the Hitler Youth, and excuses himself during daily scripture reading saying the father is reading the old testament, a "book of Jews" and consists of lies.

At a point in the story, Otto started abusing Christoffel, an old man who also works at the watch shop. Christoffel was always subjected to Otto's violence such that he is being talked down to and ridiculed by him. Sometimes, Otto also trip and hit Christoffel alongside shoving him into a wall. These were some of the ways Otto persecuted and abused Christoffels.
