Coercing people to speak lies or signal agreement with narratives they know to be false requires that the subjects of such an effort discredit their own observations, lived experience, and previously-acquired knowledge, i.e., all of the reference points against which rational people otherwise measure information. People in the grip of such ideological mind control are rendered helpless to critique or refute subsequent propaganda (and later, orders issued) from those they see as their superiors.   

This “brainwashed” and disabled effect, even more than agreement with any specific doctrine, is the objective pursued by coercing people to repeat and act on enormous, consequential, and completely obvious lies. To follow is an examination of a few recently-propagated lies that have, despite readily-available info with which to refute them, formed the basis of policies that have crippled economies and destroyed lives.

Why are lies on which damaging policy is based ⏤ not sufficiently challenged? It is not due to a deficiency of info access but to the willful damage, in 10s of millions of people, to the capacity for critical thought. We live among victims of brainwashing, people who lack the basic reference points for critical thinking because long-discovered facts, reason, experience, and observation have all been discredited.     

Covid-19 lies were many, but one whopper was particularly egregious because it served as the rationale for abusing quarantine authority to “quarantine” the general public, suppressing the entire society. “The asymptomatic spreader is a menace to be feared because he or she carries the virus but cannot be identified as a carrier!”

This lie is irrational because it denies the whole of humanity’s previous experience with viruses. Yet it formed the rationale for treating healthy people as potential viral bombs. As with so many lies designed to control others, the precise opposite is true. A person who successfully fights a virus sheds dead virus, which both informs and stimulates the immune systems of those around him or her. Exposure to effective virus fighters is essential to achieving group immunity, a long-observed and fully documented phenomenon among social species. An intact capacity for reason tells us that if were this not the case, humanity, a distinctly social species, would clearly not have survived this long. Yet the lie did NOT get challenged until horrific economic, social, academic, and psychological damage was done.

Global Warming was discredited both by its proponents’ corrupt behavior in falsifying data and Earth’s refusal to cooperate. Regardless, the climate narrative, “man-made emissions are causing a greenhouse effect …” continues to form the basis for poverty-inducing and global-hostility-provoking policies – closing electric plants, and coal mines, suppressing oil exploration, drilling, and natural gas extraction.

In an effort to obfuscate the theory’s direct contradiction of measurable reality, it has been renamed the Climate Change Crisis. Clear evidence of climate change presented in the fossil record (long preceding human presence) is ultimately dismissed because it reveals the fatal flaws in the narrative, namely, blaming human activity for a global phenomenon that long preceded humanity.

Today every severe weather event is used to affirm the narrative about emissions even though proponents have stopped talking about either global warming or the mechanism by which they’d claimed the emissions produced it. Alarmingly, this omission, the failure to connect the dots, is no longer even noticed by Leftism’s Climate Cult followers.     

Trans-Ideology has converted a once-rare psychiatric condition into a fake civil rights issue. How, precisely, did that happen? It was done with “pronouns”; compulsory lies.

When a person’s body/mind conflict is permitted to create a claim on the words, thoughts, and actions of others, his or her personal conflict is both tragically entrenched and then externalized to the surrounding work, school, civic, athletic, or other community environments.    

An ideology that purposely and explicitly separates a person’s mind from his or her body, instilling rejection of the physical self and a life of medical/surgical body opposition, is undeniably destructive to those individuals who succumb to it. Propagators of this ideology are feeding a rapacious new industry of “medical professionals” eager to secure “patients” whose “condition” requires a lifetime of treatment. But although the trans-ideologues have found an exceptionally-motivated group of allies among Big Pharma and horrifically-corrupt medical practitioners, the emergence of FrankenSex Transition as a lucrative new ‘medical specialty’ is not the goal pursued by propagating the ideology.

The goal is to weaken the whole of society by discrediting long-observed biological facts, disrupting social order, and warping our instinctive desire to defend minority interests in a way that strips all individuals of personal agency.     

If we are to retain our equal standing as individuals and thereby preserve the peaceable, consenting interdependence that characterizes a society based on it, then no legitimate exercise of rights on the part of one can be treated as a claim on the rights of others.   

Trans-ideology joins Critical Race Theory in teaching the opposite. Both subversive ideologies teach that membership in an “oppressed identity group” confers special considerations which lay legitimate claim on the thoughts, words, and actions of others. This toxic corruption in the protection of rights has already been codified in many academic and corporate settings. The result, as intended, is the erosion of equal individual standing – of society’s moral foundation – and its replacement with authoritarian social control.   

Power-seekers throughout human history, be they abusive spouses, cult leaders, or oppressive regimes, have all deployed strategies designed to diminish opposition by demoralizing their subjects. Ham-fisted physical suppression of dissent is only the most obvious and primitive layer of subjugating control. Such would be insufficient without the deployment of ideological strategies that actively disable the formation of dissenting opinions within a significant part of the population.

The gravity and scope of the damage done via subversion of morality and rationality would seem to make social and economic collapse inevitable. Yet the antidote to modern Marxism’s subversive ideologies is still firmly held by a great many Americans and within the grasp of all; functional morality and rational thought.

Functional morality consists of respect for the equal standing of each person (not identity group) in exercising his or her natural rights. Rational thought connects the dots, referencing observations, previous experiences, and previously learned material to make sense of new material. Restoring these twin pillars of the enlightened age empowers people to measure propaganda against a plumb line of transcendent truth.

  • Ideologies that seek to strip a person of reference to his or her own observations, experience, and previously-learned material are laid bare as psyops designed to disable, not defend people.   
  • Ideologies that call for authoritarian allocation of “rights” according to demographic faction are recognized as inherently immoral.    
  • Narratives that cite “the science” but dismiss previously-discovered facts without disproving them will be recognized as fraudulent attempts at control.    

Speaking simple truth is a powerful way to restore morality and reason because it gives less courageous people “permission” to do likewise.

Things we instinctively know to be true are unifying, and so speaking them aloud is contagious. Most people know instinctively, for example, that a phenomenon preexisting humanity cannot rationally be attributed to human activity. But more timid souls need to hear you say it aloud before they can join you. Most also recognize that pursuing statistical parity among identity groups via authoritarian social engineering strips individuals of legal standing. But victims of ideological subversion have been conditioned to fear the word, “bigot.” They need to hear you speak this truth aloud, too.

There is hope for Ordered Liberty as long as people of sound mind remain to speak the truth aloud. The spoken truth – intentional consciousness projected into the physical world – has great creative and restorative power. Let’s use it.
