The reason I
state that there cannot be a political solution to a moral, ideological, and
indeed a spiritual crisis is that politics is about consensus and compromise.
Yet you simply cannot concede ground to those whose express intent is to
destroy our very way of life. How would it be possible to create a consensus
with those who define our parliamentary system, our cultural heritage, and our
faith as remnants of a post-colonial, patriarchal tyranny?
The radical left disguising themselves as
"liberals" have become increasingly desperate to control the
narrative due to the waxing wave of a populist rejection of their extreme
viewpoints and Neo-Marxist policies. I predict that they've become so desperate
and unsettled that they fully intend to provoke ordinary folk to react forcibly
to their provocations so that they can then play the victim because playing the
victim forms the entire basis of their ideological narrative! The reason is
psychologically simple. The radical left invariably projects their own moral
failings onto others. Their entire ideology is based upon turning themselves
into ethical Teflon by portraying themselves as victims of “structural
oppression”. Nothing sticks to them as they cast their own moral inadequacies
onto others who are infinitely more ethical. What it truly amazing is that here
in Canada they have been in control of the “structure” for nine years yet the
very things they complain about have grown infinitely worse. This has had two effects, first they continue with tearing
down what had worked to replace functional order with chaos and second, they
endlessly apologize for the structural oppression that their Neo-Marxist
policies are making worse. The very fact that this makes them both victim and
victimizer escapes them since they lack the mental acuity to see that this is
an essential contradiction.
Today’s conversation with Bing AI:
What psychological phenomenon causes people to hold two
mutually exclusive ideas simultaneously and not notice that they contradict one
another?
“The psychological phenomenon you're referring to is
known as **Cognitive Dissonance**¹. This term was coined by psychologist Leon
Festinger in 1957¹. Cognitive dissonance occurs when a person holds two related
but contradictory cognitions, or thoughts¹. The discomfort that results from
holding these contradictory beliefs is what Festinger termed "cognitive
dissonance"¹.
For example, a person who believes in the importance of
healthy eating but regularly consumes fast food may experience cognitive
dissonance¹. The dissonance between two contradictory ideas, or between an idea
and a behavior, creates discomfort¹. Festinger argued that cognitive dissonance
is more intense when a person holds many dissonant views and those views are
important to them¹.
People often try to reduce this discomfort by avoiding or
ignoring the dissonance, undermining evidence of the dissonance, or limiting
the discomfort of cognitive dissonance by belittling its importance¹.
Alternatively, people may take steps to try to resolve the inconsistency by
either changing one’s behavior or changing one’s beliefs so they are consistent
with each other¹.
Another related concept is **Doublethink**, which was
introduced by George Orwell in his novel "1984". Doublethink is the
act of holding two contradictory beliefs in one's mind simultaneously, and
accepting both of them³.”

“Yes, it's possible. When people experience cognitive
dissonance, or the discomfort of holding contradictory beliefs, they may react
in various ways to reduce this discomfort¹. One of these reactions could be
**projection**, a defense mechanism where individuals attribute their own
unacceptable thoughts, feelings, or motives to another person².
People experiencing cognitive dissonance can feel anxious
and threatened, increasingly mistrustful, and vulnerable to authoritarian influences¹.
If their sense of reality is placed in doubt or dismissed as invalid by
authority figures, they may become uncertain of their legitimacy and security¹.
In some cases, this can escalate to hostility or even
violence, especially if the person pointing out the contradiction is perceived
as a threat. This is particularly true if the belief in question is deeply held
or tied to the individual's identity or worldview¹.
However, it's important to note that not everyone will
react this way. The response can depend on a variety of factors, including the
individual's personality, the nature of the belief, the context, and the way
the contradiction is presented¹.

“Yes, the phenomenon of **doublespeak**, which George
Orwell highlighted in his novel "1984", can and does occur in
politics¹²³⁴. Doublespeak is a language power technique that seeks to
"mislead, distort, deceive, inflate, circumvent, obfuscate"¹. It's a
unique rhetorical strategy involving the use of language that pretends to
communicate but really doesn't¹.
In politics, doublespeak is often used to mask
intentions, support ideologies, or narratives that may be untruthful or
unpopular¹²³⁴. Politicians might use phrases like "alternative facts"
to justify falsehoods, thereby creating an emptiness in the truth³. They can
manipulate how people understand the concepts and lead them to forget
unpleasant or controversial connotations¹.
For instance, politicians often employ doublespeak to
avoid taking a clear stance or to deflect criticism³. They might use
sophisticated terminologies to present a false picture to the voters⁴. This
way, they can misrepresent the truth to their voters⁴.
So, yes, the use of doublespeak can happen with
politicians and it's a phenomenon that's been observed in various political
contexts¹²³⁴.”

“Yes, doublespeak has often been a key feature of
totalitarian regimes¹²³⁴⁵. George Orwell introduced the concept of doublespeak
in his novel "1984" as a tool of the totalitarian regime⁴⁵. In the
novel, the ruling party, known as "The Party," used doublespeak as a
means to control thought and manipulate the truth⁴⁵.
Doublespeak can be defined as the deliberate use of
language to obscure or distort reality³. It's often used by oppressive regimes
to maintain their power and manipulate the thoughts and behaviors of the
people³. For instance, Russian President Vladimir Putin has been noted for his
use of doublespeak¹².
In politics, doublespeak is often used to mask
intentions, support ideologies, or narratives that may be untruthful or
unpopular¹². Politicians might use phrases like "alternative facts"
to justify falsehoods, thereby creating an emptiness in the truth¹².
So, yes, doublespeak has always been a key feature of
totalitarian regimes and continues to be used in various political
contexts¹²³⁴⁵.”

“Yes, there have been instances where Justin Trudeau, the
Prime Minister of Canada, has been accused of using doublespeak¹²³. Here are a
few examples:
1. **SNC-Lavalin affair**: In the early days of the
SNC-Lavalin affair, Trudeau stated that "The allegations in the Globe
story this morning are false"¹. This statement was seen as an example of
doublespeak as it was later revealed that there was indeed political
interference in the judicial process¹.
2. **Bill C-51**: Trudeau voiced deep concern for the
controversial legislation, only to then have his party vote for it². This was
seen as a contradiction and an example of doublespeak².
3. **Indigenous Issues**: Trudeau has been accused of
using doublespeak on several items related to Indigenous issues².”

Then, no sooner then as I asked Bing AI, “Has Trudeau been
found guilty of double speak by denying that there was foreign interference in
the electoral process in Canada?”, it ended our conversation and told me it was
time to move on to another topic. I do not think so. I will never tolerate
treason in the highest office of my country, and that my dears ain’t no double
speak! As I state previously, Trudeau’s treason has had two effects, first he
and his cohorts continue with tearing down what had worked by replacing
functional order with increased poverty, chaos, and addiction, second, he
endlessly apologizes for the structural oppression that his Neo-Marxist
policies are making worse. The very fact that this makes Trudeau both victim
and victimizer escapes him since he lacks the mental acuity to see his policies
are essentially contradictory.
My conclusions:
Treason is a capital offense infinitely more heinous than what could be defined as normal criminality. Even a MOB boss would dispatch one of his closest Dons if they had betrayed the Family which makes our present government less moral than the Mafia.
Our government is rife with foreign interference. Which is
why I invite all of you who hope to restore limited, constitutional government
under the Rule of Law in Canada to join me in smashing Cultural Marxism and its
concerted attack on our faith, our families, and our property.
So please subscribe to my podcast and join me in helping to restore
sanity and fiduciary accountability to a deeply damaged system of government.
We need to rebuild our schools where children can be taught rather than
indoctrinated. We must help rid our universities of the Critical Theory which
infects their administration and the curriculum. I pray that you will also join me in helping to restore Christianity and its values to our national discourse. Which is why I am sounding a warning to those
churches who have rejected the Gospel for WOKE idolatry.
