Lately I've been thinking about how much "We the people" are lied to by the government and by society. It also occurred to me that would make a great blog, so here I am!
Much of the lies have occurred at a blossoming rate over the last century. I have no doubt that lying has been a "beefy" business for a long time (certainly throughout history), but I do think at the height of American Liberty- in the early 19th century- the American people had quite a bit of power and the lies were much more difficult to conceal or get away with. In those years- 1800 to 1850 the American public seemed to understand their government and what was required of them to keep it in check- and the government had not had time to morph into the obscene untouchable federal bureaucracy that it is today. The Civil War, with all the good it did, was also the birth of a powerful federal government that within 100 years morphed into what it is today- a government willing to murder the President if he threatens the bureaucracy. It's as if the American public became "high" on the power and wealth of our country and it became less urgent to spend a lot of time and energy on what the government is really doing. Today, of course, it's a behemoth with no account to anyone other than itself. It squanders money and is thick with waste and fraud.
The waste and fraud are their own topic. What I want to explore is what I consider the biggest lies of all. It's not just on the government. It's also on the media, academia, Hollywood, and the ruling elite- the "Silent Tyrants" that I bring up with some frequency. The "birthing mothers", as it were. I will say, however, that for each and every single lie, the lie springs from the government in one way or another. "It goes without saying" in other words. As Thomas Paine put it- "society in every state is a blessing, but the government even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one"
So here it is; Chuck Marshall's Humble Opinion regarding the biggest lies of the last century. I have listed 12 so we'll call them the "Dirty Dozen".
The Dirty Dozen Lies of the Last Century
1) Today- "Global Warming- AKA Climate Change is an existential threat to humanity." Florida should be under water right now. Culprit: Al Gore, the Democrat Party, Academia, the American left. Control through fear.
2) Today- "Gender is interchangeable and is a function of the mind not biological. Consequently, it can be altered by surgery and drugs without any consequences to the patient." Culprit: Academia, Pharmaceuticals, Medical establishment, American Bureaucracy. Scientists are there to correct God's mistake- because they are God. Also, there's a lot of money to be made.
3) Early 1930's- "Josef Stalin and the Soviet Union are an example of how successful communism can be if it's done correctly." The editor of the NYT famously went to the Soviet Union and saw the evidence of widespread starvation in the Ukraine but elected to ignore it. Culprit: The New York Times, Academia, American Left. The never-ending infatuation that the left has on royals and tyrants.
4) Late 1930's- "Adolf Hitler wants peace above all else. All that's necessary is to sign over German speaking parts of Czechoslovakia." Culprit: UK Neville Chamberlain and the blithering idiots of the leftist English and French governments. We all know what happened with Hitler. He most definitely did not want peace.
5) Early 20th Century- "Income Tax is a fair tool for running modern society. Redistribution is efficient and effective and fair." No! It is the least efficient form of taxation- by far. Culprit: Woodrow Wilson, American Liberals. A lot of Economists seem to understand graphs much more than they understand people.
6) The 1960's - "If Vietnam falls the world will be a domino of falling countries to Communism." Vietnam fell and quite the opposite happened. Culprit: Lydon Johnson, Richard Nixon, US Government, US Military Complex. War can be very profitable for a lot of people if they keep their mouth shut.
7) The 1960's- "JFK was killed by Lee Harvey Oswald." No, he wasn't. Culprit: The Warren Report, and multiple government agencies protecting each other. Our government killed our President. There, I said it.
8) The 1950's - "Fidel Castro will be good for Cuba and its people." Cuba went from one of the wealthiest to one of the poorest countries in the western hemisphere in about 20 years. Culprit: American media, Hollywood, the Trudeaus of Canada, Barbara Walters (American journalist). Same as the Soviet Union above; "The never-ending infatuation that the left has on royals and tyrants".
9) The 1980's "The Big Bang Theory is a viable explanation to how all creation appeared." It's laughable- order from disorder? What "causes" the order then? Culprit: Academia, Fawning American pop culture. It's so absurd that nobody questioned it, if that makes sense? If you're going to lie, make it a big lie.
10) The Early 20th Century- "Evolution is an explanation to all that is living on the planet today." You can drive a Mack truck through the Theory of Evolution and it's many, many holes that scientists assure us will one day be solved by them, of course. Culprit: Academia and Fawning American pop culture. Once again, the scientist has to be the God that explains it all, there's no room for anything bigger than his or her brain.
11) "The people elect their government in the United States." The Reality: The American government is a government of agencies and bureaucrats with special privilege. They are at the front of the line to feast at the pig-trough of American dollars. Culprit: The American people for allowing it to happen. Elected officials come and go, but the bureaucrats stay forever.
12) "Separation of Church and State is in the Constitution and/or is an essential part of the American government." No, it's not. Culprit: American media, academia, leftists. We're guaranteed freedom of religion, but it is never mentioned that the government can have no part in religion. The foundations of western civilization are based on Judeo-Christian values and morals.
In future blogs I endeavor to explore each lie and dissect my reasoning and perhaps share some ideas to correct the lies so that our posterity will not have to endure the vomit that comes out of Washington, DC and the Silent Tyrants that rule us.
