“Are lies by chronic liars “real”?”

Cognitive dissonance or doublethink.

Recall from Orwell’s book, Winston’s torturer O’Brien actually believed he could float like a soap bubble.
If he wanted to, as he said, but he didn’t care to, so he didn’t.
But he actually believed it. It’s the same twisted thinking that allowed Dan Blather to utter the gem, “fake, but accurate”.

In Oceania they set aside the bubble BS when doing stuff that really mattered, like navigation, building weapons, etc. Here in our dystopian present, in supporting Hitlery and tearing down Trump, the `rats, RsAT and their MSM allies—they all float like soap bubbles. Their disinformation and lies may be fake but they believe it to be accurate, knowing it to be fraud.

Capiche? They’re as crazy as March hares.

I was taught in school that a negative times a negative is a positive so therefore it must be real.
