The term “kafkatrapping” describes a logical fallacy that is popular within gender feminism, racial politics and other ideologies of victimhood. It occurs when you are accused of a thought crime such as sexism, racism or homophobia. You respond with an honest denial, which is then used as further confirmation of your guilt. You are now trapped in a circular and unfalsifiable argument; no one who is accused can be innocent because the structure of kafkatrapping precludes that possibility. The term derives from Franz Kafka’s novel The Trial in which a nondescript bank clerk named Josef K. is arrested; no charges...

This video shows the manipulation of the audience to gain public consensus for a regional transportation plan the metropolitan transportation commission was assembled by a number of radical environmentalist groups, social justice, social equity groups, in response to California's AB 32 and SB375. AB32 is currently held up in court, and was based on doctored data generated by a California Air Resources Board member, that falsely claimed to have a PhD. He was exposed, but the radically liberal and union owned democratic legislature decided to proceed with the legislation anyway that mis-informed california population voted for. Wake up viewers!

In 1944 the truly remarkable movie Gaslight, starring Charles Boyer and Ingrid Bergman, was released to theaters to great success and acclaim.

It is comparable to George Orwell’s “Newspeak” and “Doublethink,” as used in his book 1984. and very similar to his description of political speech in his essay, ‘Politics and the English Language’.“In our time, political speech and writing are largely the defence of the indefensible…...

Gaslit GlobeGaslighting is an insidious form of manipulation and psychological control. Victims of gaslighting are deliberately and systematically fed false information that leads them to question what they know to be true, often about themselves. They may end up doubting their memory, their perception, and even their sanity.

Have you heard of the Biderman Report? This little gem from yesteryear told us everything you’d ever want to know about what brainwashing is, and how the bad guys go about doing it. And if you measure today’s events by those standards? Yikes! The Biderman Report is instrumental in setting out what someone’s got to do to deprogram someone who had been trapped in a cult. And the chart that was later developed is also used to map out abusive relationships. It sets out the framework of exactly what tools of coercion are employed by bad actors to break the...

First, who...
