When people revisit Harvey’s message now, they often discover how restrained it actually is.

There is no shouting,

no conspiracy, no demand for outrage. Instead, he offers a calm,

almost unsettling reflection on how ordinary choices shape a culture over time. His imagined “devil”

doesn’t conquer by force, but by distraction, comfort, and the gradual surrender of

responsibility. That framing invites listeners not to accuse others, but to examine themselves.

In an age of endless notifications and fractured attention, Harvey’s emphasis on self-discipline

and thoughtful citizenship feels unexpectedly modern. His commentary

endures because it refuses easy villains and quick fixes. It suggests that the health of

a society is decided in living rooms, classrooms, and quiet daily habits—how we treat one another,

what we honor, what we ignore. For many, hearing it today is less a forecast

fulfilled than a gentle summons to live more deliberately.
