If you build a society based on consent, don't be surprised if consent factories come to dominate your society.

That isn't an argument amounting to right is right, since the left has its own version...see Chomskys manufactured consent.

What's more,manufactured consent existed in societies that didn't run on consent., in the form of actual sermons preached in actual churches and actual cathdrals.
