There was one for the scroll wheel! Only had to look at the picture.
=================================
The feared change is that those who own and control the levers of power, who operate these levers, might not get to go on with their customary business as usual.
It really doesn't matter that they only understand this world from their unique perspectives. They get to call the shots, and even if they are ignorant to a degree of what they are doing, they still get that kind of power and want to keep it, no matter who or what suffers. They work those levers in whatever way that they think will keep them in control of those levers. At that level, what else it there for them to do?
What do we get to do? We get to listen to what they tell us. What do they tell us? A million lies. We are free to take our pick of the lies. They know that only a very few can hope to sort out enough truth of the situation and that there will be little chance to effectively change the status quo. The controllers can keep us fighting each other and keep our eyes off the man behind the curtain.
So, we will do what we can in our own little neighborhoods and hope the empire doesn't notice anything that would make it nervous.

No one fears change more than those holding the winning cards, or naming the game.
And just what is the "change" you speak of in your last sentence?
