Lies for the Taking

“Let us not be charlatans and let us state openly that you can’t figure out anything in this world. Only fools and charlatans know and understand everything.”

 – Anton Chekhov, responding to a reader who had complained about the ending of Chekhov’s story “Lights”, from Anton Chekhov’s Life and Thought: Selected Letters and Commentaries

There’s an old curse that goes something like “May you live in interesting times.” Well, we certainly live in interesting times. High drama, not peace and tranquility, seems to be what is desired by many and readily offered by “fools and charlatans”. Our world is vexed with constant convulsive commotion.

Why would some seek the dramatic instead of peace and tranquility? I’ll answer with conjecture so as to not be considered a fool or charlatan: there seems to be, by the amount of anger and discontent portrayed in the media, to be many unhappy people in the world.

Could it be that unhappy people have a need to remain unhappy? Could it be that unhappy people thrive on passion-evoking conflict to give them something to rage against and to feed their emptiness? A melodramatic life has a history – a story of critical moments that can be exploited and readily referred back to. The unhappy never let a crisis go to waste. And misery loves fellow travelers.

A prosaic life, on the other hand, has no dramatic history. Someone I just came across on social media noted the difference:

“When I look at the world on social media, life has never been worse.
When I look at my real life (family, career/finance, general enjoyment, etc), life has never been better.”

Is high drama readily offered by “fools and charlatans? Here’s Bill Nye: “It’s very difficult to tie any specific weather event to climate change, but if you like to worry about things, this is a great time.”

“After Tropical Storm Hilary hit California this week, MSNBC ran to TV children’s show host Bill Nye to hype climate change, a typical move by the far-left cable news outlet. . ..

“One of my primary care physician colleagues wrote this to me yesterday:

“Who would’ve thought that Covid would resurge as a concern for so many! I’m getting bombarded with calls and request for ivermectin, folks who are testing unnecessarily. Absolute panic out there once again.

“So, yes- the fear porn is working.”

BREAKING: Insider Says Lockdowns & Masks RETURNING This FALL?!! | Elijah Schaffer’s Top Picks (VIDEO) | The Gateway Pundit | by Elijah Shaffer

The Biden administration has announced a plan to encourage all Americans to receive a Coronavirus booster shot during the upcoming fall season to respond to an apparent wave of infections.

Despite the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention noting a rise in virus-related infections and hospitalizations, the White House highlighted that the overall infection rates remain relatively low.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the overall levels of COVID-19 in the country are very low. (Emphasis mine.)

Santa Monica, which is in Los Angeles County, has an extremely low rate of COVID-19 hospital admissions.”

“Positivity rates for the COVID-19 test are similarly low across the country, including in California.”

But that doesn’t stop fools and charlatans imposing mask mandates and people going along with the drama.

Do Not let them do this to your children. Say “NO!” to masks and mandates.

“College students and others across America should be preparing for mass protest against mask mandates citing a First Amendment right to engage in political speech, which refusing to wear a mask can be construed as in any environment attempting to mandate it.
The second they mandate wearing a mask, it’s a political issue, so refusing to wear one in such a condition can be construed wholly as a political statement. The First Amendment provides strong protections for political speech.” – James Lindsey (Emphasis mine)

The new Covid regulations are a test. Are we unified in our distrust of them? Will we fight each other? Are we still controllable? Will we take it? Overreact? They will come in waves of escalating provocations that take more and more while making less and less sense.

The Lies of the Government and the WHO

Dr. Robert Malone details some of the lies in his Substack post, who’s responsible for them and more:

“A brief list of some of the COVID lies we have heard over the last couple of years (with thanks and acknowledgment to Dr. Scott Atlas):

-SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus has a far higher fatality rate than influenza virus by several orders of magnitude

-Everyone has a significant risk of death from COVID-19.

-No one has immunity, because this virus is new (“novel”) and so expedited vaccine development and deployment is essential.

-Everyone is dangerous and spreads the infection

-Asymptomatic people are major drivers of the spread of disease.

-Locking down- closing schools and businesses, confining people to their homes, stopping non-COVID medical care, and eliminating travel will stop/eliminate the virus.

-Masks will protect everyone and stop the spread.

-Immune protection can only be obtained with a vaccine.

-Natural immunity conferred by infection and recovery is short lived and inferior to vaccine-induced immunity.”

“Who was responsible for these lies?

Deborah Birx (who was trained by Anthony Fauci).

She wrote virtually all official White House guidance to state Governors.

This usurped constitutional authority of states to set public health policies.

Anthony Fauci

Francis Collins”

The Lies of the COVID Vaccine:

White House says all Americans should get boosted against Covid-19 this fall – Sharyl Attkisson

They claimed it would prevent the disease. FALSE.

They claimed it would prevent spread. FALSE.

They claimed it would prevent hospitalization. FALSE.

The Lies of the Media

The COVID Lie That Started It All – YouTube

The Lies of Respectability:

There’s a pervasive attitude held by many Washington insiders – respectability. Put in a turn of phrase from Princess Bride, they would say “We are men of respectability, MAGA doesn’t become us.”

The “respectable” hoity-toity see themselves as morally and intellectually superior over the rather distasteful hoi polloi. They are disconnected from the common folk. They relate to them with contempt, with sneering media comments, and through opinion pieces – prescriptions as to how the little people should think and act – like them.

The “respectable” see themselves as lofty and undeniably important – as ruling class. Washington and the media abide them because they are controlled opposition.

Who are these “respectable” people? They include National Review writers, Bill Kristol, David Harsanyi, George Will, Jonah Goldberg, David French, Mike Pence, Indiana Senator Todd Young, Mitt Romney, Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan, Chris Wallace, and Bret Baier.

Three presidents – Nixon, Reagan, and Trump – were threats to the administrative state that had incubated during FDR’s three terms and has grown enormously since. The administrative state reacts aggressively when its tentacles, that reach into all sectors of society, come under attack.

And so it was that Nixon was assailed with Watergate and left office. Reagan’s focus on the Cold War may have been the reason why Washington didn’t mess with him.

Today, with unjustifiable impeachments and indictments, a hostile constantly sniping media, and a stolen election, Trump has been mercilessly attacked by the leviathan administrative state that wants not only to maintain its status quo but, even more so, wants to increase its scope of influence over every citizen.

The “respectable” people mentioned above are in on the attack. Justice for them is that which leaves them feeling smug.

The Lies that Indict Saying Contesting Elections is a Crime:

Common knowledge. Hillary Clinton contested an election. Al Gore contested an election. Stacy Abram contested an election. Amy Klobuchar contested an election. And others. None of these were indicted.

“The victims this time are Trump and his friends. But it could be you next time, and it will be. “A boot stomping on a human face forever,” as Orwell said. Again, it’s happening now, and it can kill America as we know it.” (Emphasis mine.)

“You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.”

You shall not spread a false report. You shall not join hands with a wicked man to be a malicious witness. You shall not fall in with the many to do evil, nor shall you bear witness in a lawsuit, siding with the many, so as to pervert justice, nor shall you be partial to a poor man in his lawsuit.

— Exodus 23:1-3

If you have been on the receiving end of a lie, you know that lies are meant to manipulate. We’ve recently seen that lies pervert justice and indict. We’ve also seen that lies are involved in stealing elections, defrauding voters and dividing the public.

Lies used politically are meant to produce homogenized thought. Lies were used during COVID and now with the Climate Crisis narrative. And what better fear porn drama can be conjured up than a campaign to “combat online misinformation” (that works to keep truth from getting a foothold)?

Who better to deliver the fear porn drama of lies than know-it-all “fools and charlatans” or as they’re called today “the experts”? They were paraded out for the COVID “pandemic” and for the Climate “crisis”. And now for the COVID “variant crisis”.

In this post I haven’t even listed the lies of the WEF such as Eating lots of meat is bad for the environment and Why eating less meat is the best way to tackle climate change and worse.

If you accept and submit to the lie, you’re in the club. If you reject the lie, then the lie has set you up to fail and power sweeps in to “correct” you. If you don’t accept the lie, you’re considered to be an extremist, a cult member:

Townhall.com on X: “John Kerry now says you’re in a “cult” if you disagree with his views on climate change. https://t.co/ymDh3bAK4c” / X (twitter.com)

Lies set you up to fail – being called names, being indicted, exclusion, etc. – if you do not accept them.

Lies blend contexts, as if they were the same thing, e.g., slavery at one time in the U.S. and all whites are racist.

Lies project onto others. (Watch CNN & MSNBC for examples.)

Lies create anxiety. (“Is he or she telling me the truth? What should I believe?)

Lies oppose human growth and well-being.

Lies destroy the spiritual growth of others and work to preserve and protect a sick world, the world of the unhappy.

When a lie is found out you may find yourself cursing the lie and the liar. Or you may vote for more lies and more drama, interesting times being desired.

“Above all, don’t lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.”
― Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

Mask mandates will not fly; tell your lawmakers we will not comply.

Mask mandates, and even Covid jab mandates to attend school seem to be returning in some states. And the rumor mill is churning that even more are coming down the pike from the Biden administration.


Regardless if these rumors are true or not, or if more colleges and more hospitals follow suit, one thing remains the same: We will not comply.

Mandatory medicine and mandated interventions such as social distancing and mask-wearing have no place in a free society. Citizens have the right to make responsible decisions about what is best for themselves and their children based on their own unique circumstances.

Email your lawmakers now to urge them to do their part to make sure that mask-wearing remains voluntary. Use link below.
