And we will witness them throwing each other under the bus, and pretending they never knew.) This doesn't seem to be the case. In fact, I'm leaning towards the opinion that every 'historical narrative' is, in some sense, false. Every rabbit hole has a Wonderland. For example, the Kennedy assassination. 9/11. And now Covid-19. Do you think the deceit has unraveled? I don't, and I can't 'prove' anything; I can only point to inconsistencies and absurdities, like obvious (to me) narrative manipulation, passports 'found in the rubble', and the like. And none of that seems to change the mind of anyone whose mind isn't ready to be changed. And for those precious few are in that state, many cul-de-sacs (*looks at bookmark folder*) exist to occupy and corral. This doesn't seem entirely deliberate. It's not the vast effort of some shadowy cabal trying to hide the truth. Oh, those exist, but I think they're more acting in concert with a more sophisticated understand of social theory -- the 'craft of kings' -- rather than pushing their own whole-cloth agenda. I used to think that 'information wants to be free'. But, it seems it doesn't. It seems to want to be obscured, lost, ambiguous. It wants to dance a chaotic dance of uncertainty. They're beautiful, these 'clouds of unknowing', but they can certainly be frustrating. Quote:The aide said that guys like me were 'in what we call the reality-based community,' which he defined as people who 'believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality.' [...] 'That's not the way the world really works anymore,' he continued. 'We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors...and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do'. Where I live, to this day no one questions the Covid narrative of the nightly news. If you claim to be unvaccinated, you'll be seen as a potentially dangerous crazy. No one admits to being in any way deceived, The acceptable opinion is "whew that was bad glad we all pulled together to get through it by being so cooperative yay us!" Maybe all that's made me a bit cynical, but I prefer my realism to koolaid. |
