The FORCE (of our Propaganda) is STRONG!

And there is also Human Nature ...

For a long time there have been a plethora of DATA to disprove much (all?) of the The CoVid-1984¹ Narrative, including: Lockdowns, Muzzling, Anti-Social Isolation, Contact Tracing, Vaccine Passports, and the myth that the Vax’s are safe and effective.

I ask myself:

• Is it a waste of one’s time to challenge a Narrative?

• Can one successfully challenge a Narrative, even with Science and DATA?

• Can anyone tell me of anyone, or any group, successfully challenging a specious Narrative in their lifetime?

• Is fighting a Narrative at best a Quixotic Sisyphean task where one is preaching to a small Choir? Does one make even a single convert? And if so, so what?

A great example from the past was Galileo challenging the Church’s Narrative of the earth-centric universe and the science of epicycles. It took more than 300 years for the Church to admit that Galileo was right and to clear his name of heresy.

Back then you were a heretic² for challenging a Narrative; today you are considered “anti-science” or a “conspiracy theorist”. Back then you were censored (or imprisoned or worse) by the Church; today you are censored by the fascist totalitarian collaboration of the MSM, Social-Media and Government if you challenge any Dogma in the new “Follow-the-Science” Religion. The Universities today, as back then, are Purveyors of the Narrative. I think if Galileo were to come back today, he’d say that not much has changed except perhaps some of the names.

A few Narratives that people are currently challenging include:

• The CoVid-1984 Narrative.

• Anthropogenic Global Warming, no, Global Warming, no, Climate Change, no, The Climate Crisis Narrative; in Obama’s words, “The greatest problem facing mankind”.

• The 9/11 Myth, e.g., that World Trade Center 7 fell due to small office fires.

• The Myth that the U.S. is a Democracy, rather than a Fascist Totalitarian Plutocracy;

• The Myth that we have a “Free Press” and they have Propaganda (e.g., Julian Assange).

Have any of these Narratives been even dented or tarnished?

There are two main obstacles to challenging a Narrative:

• Fascist scientifically-honed weapons-grade Censorship and Propaganda; and

• Human Nature

• Well there’s also that money thing.

Fascist Censorship and Propaganda

I’ve previously written about the Censorship and Propaganda with respect to the Climate Narrative. It is a bit more serious with respect to the CoVid Narrative, since questioning-people are not only socially-eschewed, de-monetized, Censored and “Cancelled”, but also risk their livelihoods and licenses to practice.

Human Nature

I’ve previously written about the “Follower Gene” and Mass Psychosis; a recent article summarizes well 5 famous psychological experiments demonstrating our easily-controlled herd-psychology. The articles ends: That’s how the media works, not to inform you, not to entertain you…but to control you. And they have it down to a science. Always remember that.

I find many people are incapable of even looking at DATA that challenge a Narrative. It is indeed a slippery slope: if one questions one Narrative, what about all the others in our Zeitgeist? One is then just left with oneself, and no herd. Few will go there.

We have a new deadly anti-science “Follow-the-Science” Religion. But maybe “new” is the wrong word; perhaps “repackaged”? As someone said, “The real war is the war for your mind”.

In the words of William Blake, in his preface to Milton:

Rouze up O Young Men of the New Age! set your foreheads against the ignorant Hirelings! For we have Hirelings in the Camp, the Court, & the University: who would if they could, for ever depress Mental & prolong Corporeal War. Painters! on you I call! Sculptors! Architects! Suffer not the fashonable Fools to depress your powers by the prices they pretend to give for contemptible works or the expensive advertizing boasts that they make of such works; …

I thought a couple of years ago that maybe the CoVid-1984 Myth, where it was clear from the beginning that the MSM/CDC/WHO/Government were giving us “numbers” and no DATA, that this Narrative could be stopped in it’s tracks. But instead of seeing people “Rouze up”, we saw our populations obediently behaving irrationally, religiously performing meaningless rituals for which there never was any real science, e.g., muzzling when walking into a restaurant, shutting down small businesses, destroying our economy, seriously hurting our children, taking non-effective and non-safe vaccines, going along with mandates, etc. Will the people perhaps still “Rouze up”, or are we already now too distracted by the new politically-made crises of Ukraine, Inflation, an “Energy Crisis” and perhaps even a resulting food shortage? And besides, it’s football season, and OMG!, Ohio State beat Notre Dame!

1. Short-hand for the MSM Hyped-Hysteria CoVid-1984 Mass-Psychosis Fear-Pandemic.

2. I love to joke that one of my heroes, Galileo, was just a mere Heretic (one who questions a tenant or two within the larger Dogma); i.e., a lightweight compared to an Apostate (one who rejects the entire Dogma or Zeitgeist).
