The Deep State’s War on Truth—Waged with Doublespeak, Delusion and Propaganda
John & Nisha Whitehead

“Political language is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.”
George Orwell
The Deep State’s war on truth is being waged with doubletalk, delusion and propaganda.
Through deliberate manipulation of language—what George Orwell called “doublespeak”—Donald Trump has provided cover for the Deep State’s continued grip on power.
While promising to drain the swamp, his administration has instead relied on contradictory policies, misinformation, and propaganda to further entrench the very system he claims to oppose. Although the Trump administration is merely the latest frontman for the Deep State’s efforts to maintain its stranglehold on power, we are approaching a tipping point beyond which there may be no turning back to freedom as we have known it.
This is how “we the people” remain on the losing end of this devil’s bargain that is life in the American police state.
What we desperately need is a reality check, and that starts by disconnecting from the Deep State’s propaganda-riddled, manipulated alternative reality about the state of our nation.
While President Trump, well versed in the “art of the deal,” appears to be saying all the right things about peace, corruption, graft, wasteful spending, free speech, equality, bloated bureaucracy, national security, etc., his administration’s actions tell a far different story about his priorities and his loyalties, which remain self-serving, imperial, flagrantly unconstitutional and intended to keep the Deep State in power.
As always, actions speak louder than words.
When the Constitution and the Bill of Rights are still missing from the White House’s website, that oversight—or deliberate omission—speaks volumes.
Any government that can’t be bothered to include the Constitution among its priorities, or include it anywhere on its administration’s website, is not a government that can be trusted to abide by the Constitution.
Then again, trust has little to do with it.
The Constitution is a contract between the people and the government. What we have been experiencing over the course of both Republican and Democratic presidencies, is a breach of contract. Where the Trump administration differs from those that have come before it is in its willingness to go rogue in defiance of Congress, the courts and the rule of law.
You don’t wage a “common sense” revolution by discarding the Constitution. That way lies dictatorship.
Remember, how you do something is just as important as why you do it.
So, what’s really going on?
As a populace, we have become so desensitized to political lies, especially Trump’s barrage of lies, that we shrug them off and move on. But in doing so, we act as enablers for what hides beneath those lies.
Make no mistake: the Deep State—the real Deep State, not the decoy version of it that Trump trots out to justify dismantling our constitutional republic—hides behind that rhetoric.
As journalist Shawn McCreesh explains, “In order to remake the government, President Trump and his administration are remaking the language used to describe the government. An entire lexicon of progressive terminology nurtured by the last administration has been squelched. In its place is a new vocabulary, honed by the president and echoed by his many imitators in the capital. It is a vocabulary containing many curious uses of doublespeak.”
Doublespeak, as media scholar Edward S. Herman defines it, is characterized by “the ability to lie, whether knowingly or unconsciously, and to get away with it; and the ability to use lies and choose and shape facts selectively, blocking out those that don’t fit an agenda or program.”
The term is derived from George Orwell’s 1984, in which “doublethink” and “Newspeak” are used to manipulate the masses into going along with the government’s agenda.
In true Orwellian fashion, Trump has mastered the art of doublespeak.
For example, McCreesh points to “one presidential order titled ‘Ending the Weaponization of the Federal Government’ [that] calls for weaponizing the federal government against itself. Another titled ‘Ending Radical Indoctrination in K-12 Schooling’ demands that ‘patriotic education’ be taught to children… Even as the president signed an executive order titled ‘Restoring Freedom of Speech and Ending Federal Censorship,’ he signed other orders policing language.”
Consider some of Trump’s other uses of alternative facts, misdirection and misnomers to advance the Deep State’s agenda.
In true doublespeak fashion, Trump’s path to peace leads to more war. At the same time that he’s threatening to halt military aid to Ukraine in the name of securing peace with Russia, Trump’s administration is sending $4 billion in weapons and ammunition to Israel so it can continue to wage war on Gaza.
Trump’s path to nationalism by way of isolationism is in fact empire building. At the same time that Trump is declaring himself a nationalist, breaking ranks with America’s allies, withdrawing from international accords, and ceding ground to authoritarian regimes such as Russia, he is also declaring his intent to lay claim to foreign lands such as Gaza, Greenland and Canada as part of a global power grab.
Trump’s path to saving money is spending money. At the same time that Trump claims to be shining a spotlight on wasteful spending in the hopes of balancing the budget, he is also as guilty of spending—and wasting—taxpayer dollars at an alarming rate. At the same that he’s empowering Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency to drastically reduce the federal workforce in a bid to save money, he is pushing tax cuts that would add $5-10 trillion to the 10-year deficit. As Reuters reports, DOGE’s savings claims are thus far “unverifiable and its calculations have been riddled with errors and corrections.”
Trump’s path to law and order is allowing the police to act lawlessly. At the same time that the Trump administration is advocating for impose harsher penalties and increased prison sentences, even for nonviolent crimes, Trump is dismantling government policies aimed at holding police accountable for official misconduct.
Trump’s path to efficiency is giving rise to even greater inefficiency. Likening DOGE to a chainsaw hacking away at a bloated bureaucracy, Musk has been wiping out whole segments of the federal workforce, agency by agency, with little thought to what programs might suffer as a result or how to keep the government functioning. As CNN reports, “There have been a lot of reports of federal workers being fired then quickly rehired once agencies realized people with critical skills had been let go…for example: Those managing the US nuclear arsenal, and those working at USDA on the response to the bird flu outbreak.”
Trump’s path to economic triumph is spelling economic disaster. Trump continues to forge ahead with his imposition of tariffs on America’s major trading partners despite warnings from economists and the business sector alike that tariffs will hurt, rather than help, the economy and could lead to a recession and a spike in inflation.
Trump’s path to draining the swamp is letting the swamp run the show. Building on the same patterns he exhibited during his first term, when Trump populated his administration with individuals engaged in a pattern of wasteful and extravagant spending on themselves at the taxpayers’ expense, Trump is once again prioritizing personal profit over the American people.
Trump’s path to free speech is censorship. At the same time that Trump claims to be liberating conservative speech from the muzzling power of political correctness, he is embarking on a massive crackdown on lawful First Amendment activities that would criminalize protest activities and punish individuals and groups advocating for policies that contradict White House executive orders.
Trump’s path to transparency is replacing watchdogs with yes-men and loyalists. At the same time that Trump claims to be bringing transparency back to government, his administration is methodically dismantling all of the systemic checks intended to protect whistleblowers and serve as bulwarks against government corruption.
Trump’s path to ending cancel culture is more cancel culture. At the same time that Trump has declared war against left-leaning, politically correct “wokeness,” he is replacing it with a right-leaning cancel culture that aims to do exactly what the left was accused of doing: renaming public spaces, erasing offensive parts of history, and silencing the opposition.
When you set aside the mountain of contradictory policies and propaganda that have become hallmarks of Trump’s time in office, a grim picture emerges: Trump’s efforts to make America great again are really just a variation on one theme, which is keeping the Deep State in power at the expense of our freedoms.
Indeed, George Orwell’s fictional 1984 could increasingly be mistaken for the Trump Administration’s instruction manual on how to remake the government in the dystopian image of Oceania, the authoritarian regime run by Big Brother.
While America’s founders envisioned a separation of powers held in check by three coequal branches of government (executive, legislative and judicial) as the means of thwarting abuse by any one branch, Orwell’s Oceania has four branches of government (the Ministry of Truth, the Ministry of Peace, the Ministry of Love, and the Ministry of Plenty) that work together to maintain Big Brother’s chokehold on power.
As Orwell explains, “The Ministry of Peace concerns itself with war, the Ministry of Truth with lies, the Ministry of Love with torture and the Ministry of Plenty with starvation. These contradictions are not accidental, nor do they result from ordinary hypocrisy: they are deliberate exercises in doublethink.”
According to Orwell, “Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them.”
Thus, the Ministry of Peace is tasked with waging perpetual war in order to keep the government in power. The Ministry of Love is tasked with meting out torture and punishment in order to brainwash the populace into loving Big Brother. The Ministry of Plenty is tasked with maintaining a state of perpetual poverty, scarcity and financial shortages, the rationale being that an impoverished populace is easier to control. And the Ministry of Truth is tasked with disseminating propaganda and rewriting history and language in order to keep the citizens compliant.
The key to this last undertaking, maintaining a chokehold on power, is what Nazi propaganda chief Joseph Goebbels referred to as the “big lie.”
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it,” stated Goebbels. “The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
Hannah Arendt, writing in The Origins of Totalitarianism, came to the same conclusion:
“In an ever-changing, incomprehensible world the masses had reached the point where they would, at the same time, believe everything and nothing, think that everything was possible and that nothing was true… The totalitarian mass leaders based their propaganda on the correct psychological assumption that, under such conditions, one could make people believe the most fantastic statements one day, and trust that if the next day they were given irrefutable proof of their falsehood, they would take refuge in cynicism; instead of deserting the leaders who had lied to them, they would protest that they had known all along that the statement was a lie and would admire the leaders for their superior tactical cleverness.”
This is how that slippery slope to authoritarianism begins, with lies that masquerade as truths and a populace disinclined to think for themselves.
Which brings us back to the tactics being deployed by the Trump administration.
Conformity, compliance and group think are necessary ingredients for tyrants to succeed.
Yet as historian Anne Applebaum writes in The Atlantic, “We are not a theocracy or a monarchy that accepts the word of the leader or the priesthood as law. We are a democracy that debates facts, seeks to understand problems, and then legislates solutions, all in accordance with a set of rules.”
The answer, as I make clear in my book Battlefield America: The War on the American People and in its fictional counterpart The Erik Blair Diaries, is that we must re-learn what it means to think for ourselves.
Pay attention. Question everything. Dare to be different. Don’t follow the mob. Don’t let yourself become numb to the world around you. Be compassionate. Be humane. Most of all, don’t allow yourselves to become so desensitized to Trump’s brand of politics that you tolerate behavior in government officials that you would never tolerate from your own children (lying, bullying, name-calling, greed, etc.).
When all is said and done, Trump’s path to putting America First is really about putting Trump first and leaving Americans in bondage to the Deep State.
In Orwell’s world, the state maintained power through deception.
In Trump’s America, doublespeak remains the Deep State’s most powerful weapon—one that thrives as long as the public fails to recognize it for what it is—and Trump is proving to be its most effective mouthpiece.

Before consigning President Trump to the “Ho Hum, Same Old Same Old” bin, let’s consider just one thing he’s done which far exceeds anything any previous president has ever done.
In arresting and requesting the deportation of Columbia graduate student Mahmoud Khalil, Herr Trump has not only accused this Palestinian/Algerian, married to an American and possessing a green card, of the usual nonsense (support for Hamas and antisemitism) but has thrown in “anti-americanism” as well. This is a whole new wrinkle. Supporting Palestinians is now, according to Trump, “anti-american.”
You can’t make this up – only an out of control maniac can.
Supported by the out of control maniacs behind him.
Or above him.
Howard is delusional
And MikeM doesn’t think the 1st Amendment applies to “non citizens”. MikeM doesn’t think that holders of H1-B visas or “green cards” are entitled to LEGAL free expression of ideas.
What’s next?
Repeal the 1st Amendment altogether?
Or just use repressive police state “laws” to render the 1st Amendment irrelevant?
“..the Constitution and the Bill of Rights are still missing from the White House’s website, that oversight—or deliberate omission—speaks volumes”.
But both the Const and the BoR are physically there in real life yes?
Ohhh so the Whitehats miss the artificial Constitution and the artificial BoR on the artificial website to promote AI’s liberal artificial big tech society. A plastic Lolita too is needed.
Gentlemen, Trump has been in office for 4 weeks, and some people else than Trump, speaks volumes………….. about these persons whine, fear and smear 24/7.
So maybe Trump hit the Deep State as he said he would yes? …………………..LOL.
perhaps Elon Musk discovered that there is a secret code in those documents which, once deciphered, will show where all the gold missing from Fort Knox has been stashed
You said a mouthful: “Trump has been in office for 4 weeks….” And he’s already making a mess of America. If he’s not stopped, after 4 years he will have captured everything and turned it over to the so-called “Deep State.” (And no, the Civil Service is NOT the “Deep State” – the CIA, NSA, FBI and the oligarchs they serve ARE the “Deep State.”)
BTW, the Constitution is not “physically there” any longer. It’s been sliced, diced and spliced till it’s no longer recognizable as the defining document of the American Republic.
MAGA47: Making the Lincoln Project sound reasonable!
This is NOT Conservatism. This is a CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS!
The Lincoln Project
Feb 12, 2025
If you feel like you’re in a constitutional crisis, you are.
The Lincoln Project is a leading pro-democracy organization in the United States — dedicated to the preservation, protection, and defense of democracy. Our fight against Trumpism is only beginning. We must combat these forces everywhere and at all times — our democracy depends on it

Imagine supposedly waking up and then getting radicalized on line to then vote trump after =operation Warpspeed and that stage as fuck assassination insult on the general public.
What do you say to the fireman’s family right behind Trump who is no longer Alive? It was fake?
https://www.bitchute.com/video/FHkB0LsmgBQR
We are giving our political leaders too much air, too much attention. We need to simply go our own way and ignore them.
Whooooopeeeeeee…another Trump derangement syndrome spew of shit…getting very trendy at OG…
Then there’s the oldest syndrome in the world: ADS.
Authority Distrust Syndrome.
War on Truth. Just try to find out the 2022 tariff rates between other countries and the US in any of the search engines. Impossible to get past the Trump crisis nonsense and the natural obfuscation of technical information. Journalism should be summarizing the previously existing true state of the tariff situation pre-Trump, so the public can understand whose truly jacking who. Keeping the public barefoot and stupid.
Just think what would happen if the Banksters were legally unable to fractional lend and had to have 100% assets covering all loans? Fractional lending is the REAL printing money problem, and it exists all across the economy from private banks and FED to government. They never lose and always win from the borrower who pays. We the borrowers are the ones who make the money, not the Banksters. They just stealth it from us!
Not so much stealth any more, this latest billions and trillions promises for ‘defense’ from EU is another big grab covid style.
“They just stealth it from us!” is literally as well as figuratively true. Thanks (in the US) to the Dodd-Frank re-write of banking laws, banks have been allowed to move all customer monies on deposit from the Liability to the Asset column. In other words, when you make a deposit with a bank, you are legally giving that money to the bank. And if they need it, they have the legal right to take it – and there’s nothing the customer can do about it.
I think if more Americans knew this, the sale of mattresses would skyrocket.
This is the hegemonic power to dictate “international” standards, including those for accounting. In a bankruptcy or crash, the debtors with the highest priority to be reimbursed are derivatives holders: the largest and most reckless by far. Any real insurance to cover the savings of serfs is insufficient by far. That is democrazy in action.
Yes – and you don’t see the old FDIC insured blurb any longer either.
The sovereign management of the money supply for productive purposes – without private or international parasites – works fine because a national economy is unlike its subsets. This is Modern Monetary Theory. Canada had it over 1938-1974, until coerced to change. USSR/Russia and China still have it. Which explains why they are an “existential threat” to the global parasite.
RE: War on truth from the capitalist libertarians: Trump’s austerity “economy and market will LEVITATE into the midterms” 2026 as the FED lowers interest rates to 2.6% and as mass DEREGULATION frees those with capital into giving us more toxic and irrelevant products and services that we DON’T need or desire. But have now been enable by the rich Tasmanian Devils of capitalism.

From one stupid bankrupting Liberal Rat elite to the bankrupting Conservative Rat elites, It’s a top 5% charade of financial musical chairs with the .01% as their deep state drivers to either destination. As long as this class has their privatization and austerity regime installed for the bottom 90%, they profit from any direction. FAKE green global “governing” or totally deregulated, privatized financial anarchy for the elite, delivers totalitarianism equally.
Woven out of the Rat’s fabric of policy possibilities: flattening and globally withdrawing the War Dept Empire; socializing the FED & top banks into a Public Banking System with Jubilee of Medical, Student and Housing Debt only Banksters profit by; de-taxation of earned income and up-taxation of unearned income; regulation of all industrial and financial toxics from public harm… is just out of the question. This would downsize and regulate the rich from it’s disrupt and destroy war for empire and wealth ploys and place wealth and authority within the bottom 90% to design a just world that is without tyranical exploitative exhaustion of Earth. This is the off-the-menu-list we never get to rationally discuss, which should be in the mix. It is the Kryptonite to elites.
“withdrawing the War Dept Empire” like so much of the rhetoric is just that, sounds great but it is not happening, it’s business as usual, different bunch of oligarchs spouting what ever abs shite they think people will swallow and gouging the wealth of the world
“As CNN reports, “There have been a lot of reports of federal workers being fired then quickly rehired once agencies realized people with critical skills had been let go…for example: Those managing the US nuclear arsenal, and those working at USDA on the response to the bird flu outbreak.””
Oh, come on. CNN? USDA? Bird flu outbreak? Federal workers with critical skills?
You don’t think some federal workers have critical skills?
FUCK NO….otherwise they would be in the private sector.
Riiight. Because the private sector never suffers from incompetence or bullshit jobs. Uh huh. As someone who has experienced big corporate as it is today there are most likely more utter bullshit high paying jobs in corporate than government almost any day. As for critical skills necessary in private industry? A strong ability to spew bullshit is a pre requisite there. Lack of conscience helps as well, not to even mention a strong ability to throw any pesky subordinate who might call out bullshit under the bus is always a big plus.
You are certainly full of shit!
That’s all ya got huh? You’d fit in very well in big corporate. Ad hom attack with no evidence, good God man you’d be in upper leadership in no time!
Want to know what the West wants for its little people (the 90%) underneath all the daily Earth-shaking announcements? Pervasive poverty.

Exactly right Lizzy.
One would lose count of all the corporations bailed out with taxpayers money.
And that doesn’t include all the corporate tax breaks and trillions paid to the MIC to build weapons for pointless wars.
You must be of the Maga cult. Sound just like them. Actually, I’ve worked for the federal government for 40 years now as a job analyst at a number of different agencies. So I know a little about the people that do the work that your boy Musk feels is worthless. I won’t get into it here, but ignorance is rampant.
Thanks for your contribution to put us 36 trillion in debt…good job…
Pretty myopic there Scoobis.
And that 36T is a drop in the bucket compared to the real Fed balance sheet but never mind all that. Blame it all on government workers. Big corporate really is right up your alley.
It is a little late. The entire culture is each person “marketing” himself up: gathering contacts, exposure and titles, expanding his CV, etc. Those who work quietly either get kicked out or loaded with more work.
RE: When the Constitution and the Bill of Rights are still missing from the White House’s website, that oversight—or deliberate omission—speaks volumes.
Actually, it doesn’t speak volumes. Whitehead builds his whole argument around something that is superficial and may not mean anything at all. Why does Off-G continue to publish this shit?
Maybe Off-G is tending to clickbait, like UnHerd.
And I am definitely seeing a lot of energy being put into blackpilling folks on the right.
I am not on the right or left. I really don’t know what “blackpill” means either (and don’t much care). What the Whiteheads are doing amounts to propaganda, not journalism. If “facts are sacred”, assertions are not.
My question exactly…perhaps someone high up at OG was pulling vacation time on Epstein Island?
Exposure! You expose people by giving them space. “You claim you are into freedom and charity, all right spit out, show us”.
The Rutherford Institute is here, they are real and refuse to go away. Are they relevant? Do they do something good for our society and/or in our public space?
hey are worth a discussion, yes/no ?
China Offends Its Final Friendly Neighbor, Vietnam, Sparking Significant Backlash
Well, North Vietnam kicked US out.
I cant imagine China would be a major problem for these children of Ho Chi Minh.
Whitehead writes: ” Pay attention. Question everything. Dare to be different. Don’t follow the mob. Don’t let yourself become numb to the world around you. Be compassionate. Be humane.”
Oh yes? I don’t recall Whitehead nor any other US libtard/leftard/conservitard writer bar Naomi Wolf losing a single syllable 2020-204 on the Scamdemic and what it did and does to civil liberties, his supposed stalking horse. .Did he even sign the Great Barrington Declaration, currently at ca. 1m. signatures?
Our CJ Hopkins here at Off-G has put his boot well into such as Whitehead, albeit in relation to Pallie supporters who however cheered the lockdowns and social distancing and jabs, think Chomsky..
For Whitehead, Rockefellers, Rothschilds, US debt, colossal age pension liabilities in the US and EU do not exist. He would not recognise the biodigital convergence if it took him in a pincer grip, and as for the internet of bio-nano things…….how many jabs did Whitehead get and if not, why not?
So whereas previously I read Whitehead attentively. I now just skim him, he has failed on too many counts already
The Great Barrington Declaration? The one that suggests vaccinating people over 65?
Uh, no thanks.
signed.
A person over 65.
No, it was not about vaccination.It was about stopping the insane “public health”measures (lockdowns, etc.) and “protecting” only the old and vulnerable.
My mistake. It did say at the end of one paragraph “until (herd immunity) is assisted by a vaccine”.
Thank you for the clarification.
I mistook this for what I kept hearing from some health freedom advocates – that vaccinating was OK for senior citizens because they are most at risk.
So give a bioweapon experimental mrna shot to someone who’s immune system is compromised as it is.
In any case, thanks again.
Judith, we Liberals do it for the best. Its for your health, for everybody’s health, for global health, damn it.
Billions have been thrown into research, science, professors, and they all say the same. We are too many here on this planet.
One less, and there are more to us Liberals! All Science shows it.
We are always on vulnerable people’s side, and never on the side of those who can manage themselves. Why not?
Because these people are rich swine, and they have to pay, one way or another!
Believe it or not, there are those in the world who recognize dangers even greater than a false pandemic. It’s a case of looking beneath the surface to determine how and why something (like Covid) was able to take the world by storm.
This notion of a War on Truth did not just begin in March of 2020. Rather, the groundwork had been carefully laid for a very long time – otherwise the majority of people would have simply ignored what was clearly nonsensical instead of falling hook, line and sinker for it.
Once people are conditioned to accept Who says something as being the determining factor of its veracity rather than What is being said, it’s like taking candy from a baby.
Leaving aside your apparent supercilious lecturing tone, you may be insinuating that Whitehead belongs to your favored class of those “looking below the surface”.
But I want to know how many jabs did he get, and how he treated any unjabbed of his acquaintance.
Nothing is clearly nonsensical as you put it if Fear of Death is the driver, and that was Covid 2020.
Spare me the would-be magisterialism about the period before March 2020, I am reading Nordangard and have read the Rockefeller report of 2010, have you? I thought not.
I’m not an American citizen so I could argue that I don’t have a dog in this fight, but it would be naive in the extreme to assume that what happens over there won’t make it’s way over here to the UK (as history has demonstrated many times). Further, I take a watered down version of George Carlin’s stance on the world ie having no affiliation with any ‘side’ in the endless stream of false binaries being thrust in front of us, but simply observing and occasionally shaking my head at the audacity of what is on display.
From a distance though, this state of affairs appears to have been inevitable. The previous administration were so unutterably bad, possibly evil, in so many ways that it required very little in the way of substance to appear ‘better’ than them. And an awful lot of people were crying out for ‘better’.
The problem with that is those people become so convinced that their ‘saviour’ will fix everything – they internalise their ‘hero worship’ absolutely – that they overlook anything that might get in the way of fulfilling what they earnestly believe to be their long-awaited solution to everything.
This leads to wilful ignorance on the part of large parts of the electorate. Almost as if it were known in advance this would happen.
I do now and always will maintain that the main political ‘parties’ in at least the UK and US are two cheeks of the same arse and they are controlled from way above their respective pay grades. If that is true, then it would make sense to have one cheek grind the people down with all sorts of mad shit, only to have the other cheek come in on a wave of popular optimism to ‘sort it all out’, whilst quietly carrying out the controllers’ real agenda as the populace happily parties on into the night. Maybe I’m just a conspiracy theorist.
On a side note, I agree with the majority of the conclusions reached in this article, but quoting CNN and The Atlantic as quasi-credible corrobarative sources is questionable, at best, even if it is only for information purposes. Are the authors somehow surprised that those media institutions published criticisms of Trump?
” . . . two cheeks of the same arse . . .” aka “good cop, bad cop”.
It certainly seems that way.
Regardless what anyone thinks they mean or wants to be seen to mean, the meaning of what you receive is your own decision. As then is the meaning you extend or give out.
A currency set in false witness operates a ‘substitute reality’ – note the self-contradiction of a mind set in concept.
A substitution for your right mind can and does operate in your name while you ‘sleep’ in the ‘meanings’ you ARE choosing to receive and give.
That such a mind knows not what it does is the ‘foundational premise’ of projected denial.
As long as you (we) focus IN the projections of internalized habitually self-reinforcing ‘meanings’, you or we give -or rather sacrifice life to a mind of judgement set over and apart from the living (that it presumes to judge over).
Thus the lies or distortions that boost a sense of self-protection run a gain of fiction under usurping of true function.
A deep state of dissociated fragmentation ‘wars’ on God – True Creation.
Truth of reality is not IN a masking of rules & filters nor edited or spoiled by them but BY using them we can undermine our own capacity to recognize true from false, such as to ‘love’ the false and hate and fear the true.
Attempts to correct, fix or heal the fear of the pain of loss generated BY a mis-perceived ‘reality’ distortion will persist the core predicates OF such a ‘mind control’.
There IS a sense in which everything is breaking down or indeed ‘backwards’ but the undoing of such an experience of our self, each other and world is in our decision – not on contingency.
This is to say that love waits not on time and place but on welcome.
Fear of love is fear of sacrifice of a ‘self’ or face of ‘control’ that was made BY fear of pain of loss as a limited and conditional ‘love’ in which ‘conditions’ are set as permission to love, to live,move and share in being.
That such a ‘love’ turns to hate in an instant reveals a ‘specialness’ set against the presence of unfolding fulfillment as a whole.
Our masking in a worship of ‘specialness’ may seem to be the only life we have-while it is protected from question as the arbiter of (our) reality, while charged with grievance seeking vengeance in place of healing or indeed undoing.
No need to warn the mind-set of a blind defence system. It Can Not Hear You. And such attempts will ‘condition’ the mind to look INTO the framing projections of deceit without seeing the frame. Hence joining in blindness to love that does not know it cannot see (but through the lens of grievance set as holy).
I am not seeking to construct argument or ideology by which to ‘boost’ an ‘identity’ set in threat, but to extend and invite a living moment.
Unlike a conceptual repackaging of life in image+ form, a living moment is a spark of a wholeness that we do not make. But can make welcome for.
There Is a different basis for taking Thought than the double-think that runs AS IF our own – and as our only ‘reality’.
What a shitload of drivel…take your meds.
