But give me time, and I could make you believe it. I wouldn’t need threats or force. I wouldn’t really even need a good argument. All I’d need is steady, confident repetition. The kind that comes from the voices you already trust. Say, you lived out on the eastern plains of Colorado. The land is flat and the horizon looks empty. You’ve got a job, a family, responsibilities. You’re not driving hours west to confirm whether a mountain range is sitting there; it’s not like it’s urgent. So you don’t push back. You just absorb the disinformation. And soon enough, you’re not just accepting the idea, you’re defending it. Your identity becomes wrapped in the belief that the world is exactly as you were told it is. Any challenge to that belief feels like a personal attack. Then one afternoon, you drive a little farther than usual and there it is. The massive, immovable Rockies, exactly where they’ve always been And instead of asking, “Why was I misled?” you lash out. Who put these mountains here? This disrupts everything! Who do I blame? And people just like you begin insisting that the problem isn’t the lie… It’s the chain of mountains. Nothing changed about the Rockies, only your relationship to reality changed. This is how real manipulation works. Not by controlling your actions, but by controlling the lens you use to see the world. So when reality finally shows up, you treat reality itself as the enemy. And that is exactly where America is right now. | |
