The SNAFU Principle:

SNAFU principle /sna'foo prin'si-pl/ /n./ [from a WWII Army acronym for
`Situation Normal, All Fucked Up'] "True communication is possible only
between equals, because inferiors are more consistently rewarded for
telling their superiors pleasant lies than for telling the truth." -- a
central tenet of Discordianism, often invoked by hackers to explain why
authoritarian hierarchies screw up so reliably and systematically. The
effect of the SNAFU principle is a progressive disconnection of
decision-makers from reality.
