A Quick and Dirty Guide to Regime Propaganda
The American Mind ^ | 07/26/21 | Michael Anton

Posted on 07/26/2021 5:27:32 PM PDT by PoliticallyShort

Gaslighting getting you down? Feel like the regime has dialed the Megaphone up to, and past, eleven? You’re not crazy. It’s definitely happening and likely to get worse as our masters’ ability to cope with reality further worsens—or worse, they gain the complete and absolute control they seek. They’re both scornful and terrified of dissent, which explains why they incessantly shriek at us and lie to our faces. So, to help you navigate the storm, I present a guide to seven of the regime’s most common, oft-deployed lies.

That is some twisted stuff, at the article. But it makes the point: One reason I think we have difficulty combatting Democrat atrocities is that they are such accomplished liars, something a Christian like myself would never entertain.

Ultimately, how does one engage with a liar? Nothing they say can be taken at face value

Their lies and schemes are not logical.

So it is hard for me to repeat them in conversation. If it is not logical, the scheme does not ‘flow’.

I think another of their techniques is to ‘flood the zone’.

Put out massive repeats of the same stuff. Then slightly different. Then contradictory. Then a new incident but with video of old stuff. ETC.

To the point where I want to say, “Forget it. I don’t care anymore. I won’t participate.”

And as an election comes time, “Forget them all. It’s all a big mess”.

“Everything will turn out OK, that the things we most fear won’t happen.” Yeah, right.

“People of color must be granted explicit preferences to overcome America’s “legacy of racism”. Yeah, right.

“That’s not happening and it’s good that it is.” Whatever.

People who use deception are lost souls who need grace in order to avoid hell for eternity. Using deception on purpose is really vicious.
