I’ve been somewhat “binge-reading” some of the available literature about President John F. Kennedys (JFK) assassination as we approach the 60th anniversary of that craven act-a coupe-d’état-where conspiratorial violence elevated a criminal into the White House and changed the course of America forever-for the worse.
Just on the off-chance that-like me-you’ve been busy with life and stuff and have not been interested in the topic other than interesting tidbits and “squirrels-” drips and drabs of information released by the government, aggregated and released by the borg, lately I have been doing a bit of the work so you don’t have to (why would you.) In my case it’s been over three decades since I’ve paid much attention, in the meantime we’ve had more recent instances to worry about where our government schemed, lied, rinsed, and repeated and I’ve written about a number of them.
The bottom-line takeaway is somewhat the same as it ever was: conspire, collude, act, then distort, delay, distract and continue to smear any nay sayers or “radicals” who won’t get with the program as, kooks, a.k.a., “conspiracy theorists.”
The term came into vogue largely as a result of the assassination and soon became the go to dismissal of any and all who would not accept and swallow their (our) government’s nonsense (BS) as fact: how dare you!
The proof our government was lying to us all along was that every single one of them that scolded, cajoled, lectured, dismissed and disregarded anything put forth to counter the narrative that forced you-take it or leave it-to suspend belief and just accept their facts-resulted in more lips moving, accusations, dismissals and lies.
Now ironically enough the “malarky kid, riding the BS express” said as much when he read one of those amazing talking points he is infamous for, you know, the ones he is reading off a piece of paper deliberately put together for the opportunity and he says something like “You may have your facts, but we have our truth…” and we choose “truth over facts…” delivered at a campaign rally at the Iowa Fair in 2019. Many breathed a sigh of relief at the time that “Lunch Bucket Joe” was out in the public and engaging just like a real candidate, providing a relief of sorts from mean “tweets.”
Not to sidetrack on this topic but some six decades ago the JFK assassination may just have served up the ultimate opportunity in lies and mistruths by our government to propagate a crude-but effective-blueprint-a playbook or methodology on how the government can make up a narrative, swear to it as an institution, and ride it through the statute of limitations and into history as truth: despite all the inconvenient facts that debunk it at its core.
A book I’ve mentioned in previous articles-Barbara Tuchman’s “The March of Folly”-is due for an update since it last visited American political idjiotcy in the context of the Vietnam War: it seems like we have been engaged in “beer holding” ever since. This is how you can legitimately wrap yourself in these insane narratives-pretzel yourself into believing that pigs can fly (with jetpacks,) there are 47 or 96 genders-like options for Halloween costumes or something.
In this dysphoric vision which is now proudly being pushed world-wide as the “progressive narrative or truths,” it makes a lot of sense somehow for tampons to be made available in men’s rooms and for dudes to compete against woman-because-human rights-and get to proudly display their junk in woman’s locker rooms at the YWCA. Anybody who points out the lunacy of such ideas is called out, smeared, excluded and pilloried as “the problem!”
In an America where all things are possible today, we should fear the tortured and twisted logic that insists up is down, down is up, 2+2=5, our planet is about to die (and OBTW, Soylent Green is people) and the only thing we can do about it is to stand up for it, support these insane concepts unconditionally: or be shouted and shut down-canceled.
Six decades ago, there was no internet or borg to check or verify the emerging “truth.” I’m pretty sure-to the point of my friend’s saying, that- I’m “almost positive-” our parents knew nothing about nor suspected at the time that our government often colluded with media outlets-newspapers in particular-to get ahead of things and propagate the “truth” they wanted you to understand, vice the “facts” you needed to know: if they had truth they were telling, you thought you needed to know it.
So when the government provided the “truth” via the AP Wire, picked up by the dominant local newspapers and eventually covered in the nightly news-where many Americans were glued to their televisions getting the daily dose of “gospel’ from personalities like Walter Cronkite, it was almost a new religion at the time: Walter would not lie, distort or be part of any such shenanigans (winky-f’n-winky: of course he wouldn’t.)
Those were obviously simpler times. I was not at the point where I was paying attention to such things early-on, many of us just consumed information and followed directions like sheeple. My favorite, coming of age realization about just how bat-poop crazy things seemed to be getting started in the early 1960s when-knowing nothing about nuclear weapons-many of us were supposed to be comforted somehow when Mrs. Stone told us to get under our desks at school to be safe as part of some unknown threat that required such drills.
I do remember thinking “so this is what the dog feels like” and having a puzzling and frightening conversation at home about this topic that made it clear that it involved big things that go boom with bright flashes and on the scale of things to be afraid of, it was somewhere between the “boogey man” under your bed and being on the surface of the sun-melting, or getting blown apart. Somewhat the fate of doing the “Wicked Witch of the West” melt-down dance…
Scant years later-when the Tet Offensive played out across America’s living rooms, delivered in somber terms by near religious leader Walter Cronkite, it would not be clear (to me) until the late 1970s what a lemming-like, mouse finger to the eagle, act of final defiance the Tet Offensive represented, and what a propaganda coup it was for North Vietnam: turning a desperate act and absolute disaster into a saving political action, against all odds.
In the 1960s the choices and events all seemed stark and frightening. Almost all of the biggest events had elements of distortion and government lying at the heart of the message that people were ill-equipped to question. There was apparently a horrible danger nearby us that would require that we hide under our desks at school to be safe: it was the only recourse. That threat apparently went away, and we got back to normal, but then somebody killed our president, and it was apparently the worst thing that ever happened, and things would never be the same.
We were in a violent rut as a society, as every night there was horrific violence played out on the television in some place nobody could pronounce, or even explain where it was, but was apparently near China. Now we “knew” about China because everyone needed to finish the food on their plate because the people “over there” were starving (can we “flush” this gruel to them???) Violence was being starkly presented to homes in America throughout this period unchecked by balance, sanity or reason. Like the tides, nightly, never ending.
More dreadful murders-assassinations happened-it seemed to be the case that those in the public eye were being murdered with great frequency-they were big stories-while every night there was violence, shooting and mayhem like the replaying of a war movie without the happy ending. We had always been treated to happy endings in our culture.
The takeaway from all this was obvious-politics-running for political office-seemed to lead to bad things and frequently resulted in murder. The plain fact is that as new mediums for information and news expanded slowly in a fledging way in the 1970s, but really starting to explode as CNN proved a hugely viable concept in the 1980s, the proliferation of email in the 1990s (You’ve got mail!) and shortly thereafter the increasing viability of the internet available to the masses starting in the late 1990s revolutionized the capability for people to do their own sanity checks and research in ever more sophisticated ways to double-check information and combat mis-truths.
Such capability inevitably fostered the proliferation of “shades of gray truth,” where the association game often expressed in terms of “six degrees of Kevin Bacon” became much more complex in ways that were difficult to understand, predict and also confusing-impossible to understand for the layman. We could probably have thought this through if such were our objective, as it became increasingly clear by ongoing works in medical imaging and the remote sensing world that worked with the realities presented that there were actually “256 shades of gray” ranging from white to black and everything in-between. Somewhere in that span are my facts and your truth.
When you think through the rainbow of colors, each with its own variation between the lines-my facts and your truth could be within the same color scheme, but never see each other or even be understood or appear to be related.
Our kids and grandkids today manipulate information in this world intuitively through early use of online games, phones and portable devices and-as a result-may be even less aware or cognizant of manipulation of information sources and “truth” than my parents were and that many of us are today because it is still difficult for many to imagine and believe that human nature has a predatory side and while the majority of people are good, there is a reason hitchhiking to get around has pretty much gone the way of the dinosaur in America. If you show up looking like a corn dog on a stick, you should not be surprised when somebody tries to eat you.
A parent can explain until they are blue in the face that we simply lack sufficient medical information and documented evidence of many things that are touted today as “OK,” for instance, puberty blockers and drugs that the medical community acknowledges we have very little information about the long term effects of such radical treatments in comparison to the known facts about treatment for things like autism, ADSD, psychosis and dysphoria in a not insignificant number of US citizens. We should pity parents today engaged in fighting an uphill battle in a blizzard against the system-radical disinformation agents spewing propaganda at their children, aided and abetted by insane policy, militant teachers and a loss of the narrative-often before they know it is happening. It has somehow become moral to hide the truth from them, because dogma-doctrine-BS.
We can intuit a lot of really bad things coming out of what has been accepted up to now as “OK,” the inevitable result-that would be good to know for parents to consider amongst the outcry to support their children. For instance, losing the ability to ever have an orgasm in life-which means never having children without some type of medical, miracle intervention-caused by choices made at the age of (fill-in-the-blank,) when unable to make sane and informed judgements on matters that will affect one for the rest of your life. Something you would likely have a very different opinion and care level about when you get to the age where you truly understand things as you get older and more mature.
Which is a point made more to highlight the inherent ramifications and danger of fostering the notion that there is some value or reality in separating or distancing truth from fact than to use the opportunity to bash on cultural sexual and gender lunacy.
This article makes good points about the dangers of truth versus facts, but in an unfortunate contrast- between Trump’s claims of election cheating with Jussie Smollet’s obvious hoax. The author charitably unwittingly contributes to the problem by conflating an obvious hoax from the get-go on the part of Smollet-where the entire story was fantastically created and easily debunked by every emerging fabrication disclosed in the investigation.
Whereas my “conspiracy theory” on election fraud does not rest on some admitted “magical bullet” or false medical unicorn premise that has not been seen or worked or the dependence on a miracle to occur, but rests on a number of patently suspicious and obvious “facts” that have never truly been investigated to address blatant acts of pure cheating-let’s call them what they are-that have been shouted down both in the public square and in the courts on technicalities that many cite as evidence that there is no there, there. More on that later.
However, we would do well to point to a disturbing pattern of malfeasance in so many cases as exemplars of the deep state “swamp-” what I call the LSMBTG-capability of rallying to the narrative to twist the evidence-often without facts, or simply by making up the narrative created to carry the news cycle to get past the bump in the desired momentum and through the 3-5 day news cycle so they can get back to the truth they want you to adhere to as loyal acolytes.
It is really a scary proposition to consider but consider it you should. The latest of myriad examples of just how good the LSMBTG has gotten at this technique-which mirrors military information operations tradecraft-is playing out as I write this to tar and feather Robert F. Kennedy Jr. How strange is it to find ourselves defending a man who continuously ravages DJT with outlandish claims and charges with seeming disregard for the hell that has been wrought on America since the stolen 2020 election?
As this RedState article reports, His family is getting involved in the attacks-the latest basically letting the cat out of the bag that his comments threaten to place at risk the “most progressive US president in history, a man who ended Afghanistan, took care of COVID and ended Donald Trump:” all apparently obvious reasons why RFK, Jr. should be pilloried.
Kennedy’s book (The Real Anthony Fauci) placed a big old furry target on his back, exacerbated by his decision to run for the presidency. It is not lost on progressives that the Perot effect must be nipped in the bud at every turn on the way to the election, and-if possible-made illegal-with the exception of attempts to ensure it is active on the republican side. With DJT consistently in the low to mid ~40s in the polls-likely a bit low, given most pollsters left leaning padding tendencies-it is not lost on the LSMBTG that Biden can ill-afford any competition for the solidly leftist-progressive votes that could be up for grabs, although in no case a worry to vote for the hated Bad Orange Man.
Kennedy is taking flak for a number of reasons, mainly his clear and ample indictment and evidence to support the fact that we likely lost some 400K Americans due to malfeasance on the part of the whole of the LSMBTG-led by Fauci-that inflicted known unsound techniques against COVID, while suppressing known medical processes that as early as Feb 2020 were proven successful in combating COVID at the onset of symptoms: at a time when many were still being told to stay at home, take aspirin, and go to the emergency room if symptoms increased, such as shortness of breath, to die.
While we take that number at face value, the dis-and-misinformation continues to trickle out all these years later, including recent disclosures that a minimum of 30% of deaths attributed to COVID-were “misreported.” And how did that happen? Well, the government incentivized reimbursements for hospitals when the cause of death was COVID.
Enough for now. I’ve done more than my usual amount of Allman Brothers mimicry here (Rambling Man,) so I will close with somewhat of a perfect example of the nonsense crap, lies, idjiotcy and squirrels I’m referring to by our government that helps take our attention off some of the big stuff we should be focused on. To set this up, this moron goes eight whole hours without drinking water in a clown show of moronic proportions to make a point about argle, bargle and labor (apparently): enjoy.
