The author hints at the root of these lies when he mentions “post-modernism.” That school believes there are no absolutes, and that anything can be defined by its immediate social and cultural context. It goes hand in glove with the marxist notion that truth is a negotiable commodity.
Similar lies are being told every day about global warming, homosexuality, sexual behavior in general, fiscal policy, islam, the nation’s history, and our national security. It is really very simple: they’re lies. Nothing more than outright lies.
“People will always believe the ‘Big Lie’ because humans have a limited capacity to fathom deception on the grand scale.” — Josef Goebbels.
Post of the 21st century. Taught in liberal universities outright and as hidden agenda in public school. I had one psych prof who taught “truth” logically in research design, warning of post-modern thought.
