Constant Lying [View all]

A hellscape is coming ...

"This constant lying is not aimed at making the people believe a lie, but at ensuring that no one believes anything anymore. A people that can no longer distinguish between truth and lies cannot distinguish between right and wrong. And such a people, deprived of the power to think and judge, is, without knowing and willing it, completely subjected to the rule of lies. With such a people, you can do whatever you want."
Attributed to Hannah Arendt

Keep in mind, mass media are owned and operated by corporations spreading lies for profit. What ever the market will bare and market is lies; it costs less to tell a lie than expend the energy to find the truth. Leaving consumers ignorant cynical and empty.

The people of USA are in for some seriously dark times.
