Do Spoken Words Have Metaphysical Power?

[UltraBudgie]

an interesting point for example have you noticed that politicans almost never lie?  what's that you say, of course they lie all the time!  but haha no if you parse their words the competent ones are always technically telling the truth and as we all know technical truth is the tastiest and crunchiest kind of truth.  and all that is perhaps practical so they don't get purjuiried or soundbitten and such, but also theres a kind of magic to it too, where you lead people into filling in the blanks themselves in the ways they predisposed to, hearing what they want to hear, projecting, choosing the context to hear things in that makes them happycudchew and noworry.  that way its their fault for choosing to be deceived.  trump tells that damn riverscoprion story a hella lot doesnt he?  its stumbleblocking, a way to milk the power of consent from peoples sinful self deceiption.  we're trained for this as americans with ideaism dreams and patriotfap freedomsmarm, and noone actually forces you to believe the bs, its just really really hard not to fall into the flocking and schooling behaviours, but if you dont try you get what you deserve which in my wimpy opinion is really kinda cruel but it is what it is and life is hard i guess

edit to add that this is an inbubble answer, right, like fish in water all the time, and that this may be an emergent effect of the american advertising industrys 20th spiral or whatever, not a univesal effect and bubbles burst, fair warning, bs is not a solid foundation for a house much less a culture or empires, but it does grow some pretty flowers
