Intereting quote.
It goes hand in hand with the Rod Dreher book titled “Live Not By Lies: A Manual for Christian Dissidents”, Mattias Desmet’s recent book about mass formation pshychosis titled “THE PSYCHOLOGY OF TOTALITARIANISM” and that Yuri Alexandrovich Bezmenov interview where he spoke of demoralizing a society to the point where society becomes unable to accept logic, reason, or truth.

This is what we must combat. We must be vocal in not accepting lies and warning others of the threat of conceding to lies.
Examples of current lies...”safe and effective”, climate change, methane and CO2 emissions, the queer agenda, pedophilia,free and fair elections...we could go on and on..
Desmet addresses this clearly in the Carlson interview and the two examples in history where the people “went along” with the lies.
If I recall correctly from the Desmet iterview:
20-25% will go along with the lies, endorse the lies, never questioning them and continually brainwash and gaslight everyone else.
60-65% will, under the pressure to conform, follow the first group, though they inwardly know they are believing and following the lies, even calling the lies absurd. These are the go-along-to-get-along (GATGA) crowd.
5-10% are the vocal minority who are steadfast in calling the lies what they are. Lies.
The battle is for the minds of the second group, the GATGA crowd and the 5-10% minority must never be silent and must bring the 60% out of their willfull ignorance. The first group is unreachable. If the third group is silenced, or chooses to be silent, the society collapses to the lies. The two examples from history where the thrid group failed are Germany falling to the Nazis and Russia falling to the communists.
Doctor Shivago (sic?) movie is filled with clear examples of the communist lies and clearly shows the three different groups in their roles. So too, this can be seen in the movie “The Patriot”
Thank you for sharing the quote
[[demoralizing a society to the point where society becomes unable to accept logic, reason, or truth.]]
That is exactly what is going on- it begin in schools where black kids are elevated, while white kids are made to feel shame for being white, or being ‘privileged’- they are told that they are racists, and often engage in ‘microaggressions’ etc-
by the time the kid gets to middle school, they are thoroughly ashamed of themselves, and start engaging in condemning their fellow white folks-
They are also bombarded with lies about the climate- and are taught that they are a ‘virus that is ruining the natural world’
Kids come out of school feeling worthless and guilty of everything from climate change to racist white privilege- they have been totally demoralized- then they reach hte age of knowing everything, early 20’s to late 40’s or so- and they begin preaching their own brand of shame and guilt to anyone who will listen-
5-10% are the vocal minority who are steadfast in calling the lies what they are. Lies....
To great peril to themselves- as the left will furiously attack them, cancel them, ruin their lives- the 5-10% are the true heroes-
Ethically and morally speaking, I want to disagree with your statement !
But truthfully, ..I believe that you are quite CORRECT !
How so soon we forget the lesson that the covid virus and the covid vaxxine were promulgated by the various ABC Federal agencies.
"Safe and Effective" were outright lies about a totally untested biologic injection, administered under "emergency conditions"
which required these various Federal agencies to categorically lie to the public, and then actively 'hide' the adverse effects in order to protect Big Pharma.
The agency 'hide' continues as even today, unabated, the purge of medical and legal personnel who resisted the lies continues even into today.
There has been no accountability, nor acceptance of professional responsibility, even today as the 'perps' still walk among us, and continue to interview in the media, or on TV.
The statement remains "spot on" ! Buggers All !
The Rape of the Mind is another book worth checking out.
