The "Big Lie" aka the Chutzpah Maneuver deception technique is the extreme exploitation of this imaginary "honor code" which gullible minds labor under, tending to project "honor" onto "authorities" -- the deceiver masquerades as an extraordinary paragon of righteous virtue, and repeats a lie which flips reality 180 degrees opposite of the truth. The lie has a certain illusion of credibility to it, as it's really a mirror image of, say the "good vs evil" realities which are truly in play; it just happens to fraudulently flip the roles around, in a deception so audacious, the gullible mind dismisses the possibility that another would lie so shamelessly.

In fact it was Percival/Pattern-of-Paranoia-Guy/etc's favorite; he was downright fanatical about using it... one of the principal clues it was Percy when he'd be posting as his latest "new guy" sockpuppet. I nicknamed him Pattern-of-Paranoia-Guy when in every other one of his posts, he was accusing people of being paranoid- when it's obviously the zio's who are paragons of paranoia... It's intended to cause cognitive dissonance in the honest reader, esp when the zio-shill successfully made the accusation(s) preemptively... describing their own dishonest behavior/agenda to a tee, but loudly & repeatedly projecting it onto their opponent. Honest readers are supposed to just get confused & frustrated, throw up their arms and give up on trying to understand the truth of the topic.

Notice the CHUTZPAH MANEUVER is also the favorite lying/propaganda method of zio.gov, esp as it pertains to bankster/wall-st criminality, and all things related to the warrenterra hoax.

November 10, 2001 - President Bush Speaks to United Nations, long before 99.x% of Americans even suspected something was very wrong with the official 911 CT,
G.W. Bush:
"We must speak the truth about terror. Let us never tolerate outrageous
conspiracy theories concerning the attacks of September the 11th;
malicious lies that attempt to shift the blame away from the terrorists,
themselves, away from the guilty. To inflame ethnic hatred is to advance
the cause of terror."

This old Mike Rivero essay nicely summarized the "Point Of No Return" which can afflict that sub-population who are burdened with both initial gullibility and stubbornness re changing opinions once the error of their perceptions has been brought to their attention:


The Point Of No Return

Dictators do not appear overnight. They must gradually assume more and more power over time so that the population does not realize what is going on, or does not feel it is worthwhile to object.

But to maintain control, dictators "seduce" their population into greater and greater atrocities, over time. There is more than simply acclimating the population involved to the dictator's agenda. By tricking the population into acceptance of greater and greater atrocities, the dictator will eventually reach a position where the people will be too afraid to examine what they themselves have become. Trapped by the fear of examining themselves, such people turn into the most fanatical of the dictator's supporters. They dare not look at the dictator's evil for to do so is to look at their own. Once the dictator can trick his people past that point, they are his slaves. Hitler used this tactic. So did Stalin.

The people of the United States stand at that point right now. That the US Government is using torture on POWs (just as Hitler did) is beyond argument. One can either stand up and denounce that torture and demand the firing of all who took part in it (and the end of the war), or one is by default complicit, an accessory after the fact, seen by all to condone such barbarism.

Anyone who steps across that line is trapped. Unable to look at what they themselves have become they will refuse to look at what the government has become, indeed will create or accept any justification, no matter how thin and transparent, rather than question that government. And indeed this web site gets email from people who have already crossed that point, and are trying to explain why torture is really necessary "this time".

So, you are down to a choice. There is no more being neutral, or sitting on the fence. As Bush himself said, you are either with him or against him, and unless you are actively against him and his war machine, then he wins by default. Unless you stop them now, sooner or later, Bush and the NeoCons will succeed in turning this nation into the 21st century version of Nazi Germany, powered by fanatics so afraid to look in a mirror that they will inflict any pain on any people, rather than do so.

Time to decide.
Maybe part of the appeal of a messageboard like GSUS is, most of us were blue-pillers at one time; but we had the curiosity and intestinal fortitude to accept where we discovered we'd been systematically deceived, and to "independently" relearn matters as appropriate? We're thus kind of like a recovering deceivee support group...
