The lie

Censorship

There are many topics at hand for the gourmand reader on Substack. Literally of course as some writers have a large foodie audience and this is their topic and figuratively as each reader reads for their own interest. The same ikstrue naturally on all social medias. Let me use Facebook as an easy example. To this very hour writing on injection contents is forbidden. “You shared this on your profile. Your post goes against our Community Standards on spam.” My offense-

FB censors this without hesitation. I moved to Substack years ago due to this censorship and got entertained by being briefly banned by Substack for two weeks within a couple months for denouncing Dr. Alexander which perplexed me and perplexed me more when a confession by the organization I was wrongfully banned unbanned me. I do not care really. I created a second Substack that I use rarely. I care though in a higher sense.

Disinformation, Misinformation, Errors unchanged or unacknowledged are free speech. Gresham’s law of money applies to speech as well. Few are willing to dig deeper than the presentation by an “expert.” Especially if likeable. Or very professional. Dr. McCullough of the Wellness Entity disseminates Covid disinfo all day long for the money he makes pretending the virus exists. Good for him, he knows marks when he see’s them and writes for their understanding. A few other writers see the humbug. The good news is neither side is censored. Truth remains and can be discerned because it is not silenced. The opportunity remains to find where truth lies for the author and reader. Montaigne "I may indeed very well happen to contradict myself; but truth, as Demades said, I do not contradict.”

And yet in a larger sense the Lie is terribly destructive as the history of this long 20th century demonstrated and Covid terror demonstrates to this day. Take Congress grilling Fauci. A true comedy of grotesqueness in that they blame Fauci for not quitting his job and instead making his money honestly like any politician with an eye on the graft spearheading the Covid narrative as part of his job of beguiling the public. He evidently beguiled them despite this Covid being a military operation they funded. Dies mounted on lies Congress happily endorsed until the worm turned and deaths no longer could be denied from Vaccination. Congress seems to wish for a different narrative than no virus existed so they go to the “lab leak” to blame Biden’s good friend China. China who we do biowar business with for years funded by Congress and now Congress in accordance with a narrative of 1/4 truth blame the wrong thinking people of power and influence denying a lab leak like Fauci who set forth the basic narrative of a “natural” cause for the lab IMAGES created in a biowar experiment with the USA. Images that did not leak. Images provided by China as evidence of a non-existent virus.

I have posted this thought of Berdyaev previously but for those who do not recall his words on the lie:  The lie plays a tremendous role in human life. The world is swallowed up in lies. And to the problem of the lie philosophers have paid too little attention. Not only do people that are by nature liars lie, but also uprightly truthful people. They lie not only consciously, but also without awareness. People live in fear, and the lie is a weapon of defense. The structure of consciousness is deformed by the function of lie, begotten by fear. There exist several types of lies, but the most interesting is that type of lie, which is conceived of not as a sin or a vice, but as a duty. Elementary in type is the greedy lie, as the means for the attainment of egoistical aims. But there is a type of lie, non-greedy, almost artistic, when man does not make a distinction between reality and his own fictitious inventions. This type likewise does not here interest me. There is moreover a type of lie out of sympathy, which can be to the saving of the life of another man. Uprightness does not signify formalism and pedanticism. The moral act of man is always creatively-individual and is worked for the concrete instances of life, singular and irrepeatable. But most significant is the social lie, affirmed of as a duty. The life of states and societies is full of it, it serves as a support for civilisation, this gives it pride, as being the vanguard against chaos and anarchy.

         Deeply rooted in the mass consciousness, myths are manifest by the expression of this lie. Through the organising of these myths, lie runs the world, a watch-guard over human society. Ancient myths arose out of a collective subconscious creativity, and at their foundation was always some sort of reality. Contemporary myths are characteristically and consciously an organised lie. In them is no naivete. This may sound pessimistic, but it mustneeds be recognised, that lie is mortared into the foundation of the organisation of society. The pure and nakedly unshielded truth can lead to the end of all things, to the ruin of societies and states, -- say the defenders of the pragmaticism of the lie. Politics is to a remarkable degree an art of directing the human masses, i.e. to spout demagoguery, i.e. to spout the lie. This artifice is utilised by myths, which are no chance product of fantasy, and which bear a consciously organising character. Myth is created simultaneously about the object of love and the object of hate, and in it powerful emotions reach great intensity and concreteness. Eros and anti-eros simultaneously evoke a work of enflamed fantasy, that of a created image. The lie, avowedly socially-useful, herein reaches within the myth such unprecedented proportions and so deforms the consciousness, that there arises the question of a radical change of attitude towards truth and the falsehood of lie, -- about the disappearance of the very criterion of truth. In earlier times, lie played a small role in political life. 

He is not alone. Other philosophers and social critics have attacked the manifestation of the lie, but 2020 installed the Big Lie as mightier than God and in 2021 Paul Craig Roberts denounced it -most ironic in the sense that he is perforce Loyal Opposition-even now he believes in the virus. Ask him why he so believes to this hour in an idol and I think he would say reasonably this virus is unquestionable truth.

Coronavirus World Update Lies for Big Pharma as Does NPR, CNN, NYT, WaPo, Social Media, Fauci, and Biden, Causing More People to Die

Paul Craig Roberts

On September 21 the Big Pharma shill website, Coronavirus World Update, added fuel to the fear hysteria with a false report that the US death toll from Covid “surpasses total of 1918 Spanish flu pandemic.”

Hardly anyone has died from Covid.  People with co-morbidities have died from their existing serious health conditions, and it is possible that Covid hastened the day.  Most people who died did so from a lack of treatment.  The protocol is to refuse to treat infected people with known cures and to leave them at home untreated until they recover on their own or become  so sick they must go to the hospital where, instead of receiving help,  they are put on ventilators and killed.

It is likely that the vaccine and ventilators have killed more people than Covid. And the vaccine deaths might be only beginning to show up.

Big Pharma shills lie for the purpose of creating fear that drives people into inoculation with a very dangerous and totally ineffective “vaccine,” which is not a vaccine.

Whether the agenda is limited to profit and control, we don’t know.  What we do know is that the American Medical Establishment is determined that Covid patients die by being denied effective treatment.

Dr. Mark McDonald describes to Tucker Carlson on Fox News the campaign to prevent the public’s access to Ivermectin by having pharmacists refuse to fill doctor’s prescriptions for the safe and effective Covid treatment– https://www.buzzsprout.com/1834531/9231387 

When hospital nurses, who have seen the illnesses and deaths caused by the mRNA injection, refuse to be jabbed, preferring instead to resign or be fired, and when American hospital protocol is death from Covid is preferable to treatment with Ivermectin or HCQ, the only possible conclusions are that the American medical establishment is medically incompetent beyond belief or that the American medical establishment is willingly complicit in a conspiracy to murder.

Many Americans have been brainwashed and indoctrinated into the deadly narrative.  This makes them accomplices to their own murder.  It is tragic.  But it is further proof of the term “Dumbshit American.”

I leave you with Robinson Jeffers -

Be Angry At The Sun

That public men publish falsehoods

Is nothing new. That America must accept

Like the historical republics corruption and empire

Has been known for years.

Be angry at the sun for setting

If these things anger you. Watch the wheel slope and turn,

They are all bound on the wheel, these people, those warriors.

This republic, Europe, Asia.

Observe them gesticulating,

Observe them going down. The gang serves lies, the passionate

Man plays his part; the cold passion for truth

Hunts in no pack.

You are not Catullus, you know,

To lampoon these crude sketches of Caesar. You are far

From Dante's feet, but even farther from his dirty

Political hatreds.

Let boys want pleasure, and men

Struggle for power, and women perhaps for fame,

And the servile to serve a Leader and the dupes to be duped.

Yours is not theirs.
