Our World of Universal Deceit
George Orwell wrote, “During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.” Our present era is certainly full of deceit, along with corruption, incompetence, and insanity. When you’re lied to often enough, you lose perspective on what the truth really is. We are lied to continuously.
The recent, all too brief congressional hearing chaired by the lovely Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, on the JFK assassination, brought home this point once again. Only a handful of representatives even bothered to attend the hearing, let alone ask questions. And none of their questions demonstrated a cursory knowledge of the case. Jasmine Crockett, who seems to be front and center of everything now in Congress, basically insinuated that Americans should be happy that the CIA didn’t destroy all the evidence. Another Democrat kept trying to get Jefferson Morley to admit that Oswald was firing shots that day. And Loren Bobert, bless her cute little empty head, confused Oliver Stone with Roger Stone. She must have quite the conscientious staff. Rep. Luna did a commendable job, but is very young and not informed enough to confidently debate anyone on the subject.
Luna said publicly that there were two shooters. Okay, that’s certainly more accurate than saying there was one. Especially when you’re claiming the one was Lee Harvey Oswald, who didn’t fire a weapon that day. Luna, for unknown reasons, highlighted a film being withheld by NBC News, that reveals Oswald “near the vehicle,” in her words. Apparently, she was referring to footage that shows a grainy figure in the corner of the doorway of the Texas School Book Depository building, which some in the research community claim is Oswald. It was an awkward choice of words to say “near the vehicle,” but certainly if the figure was Oswald, that alone exculpates him, because it was taken as shots were being fired, allegedly by Oswald on the sixth floor of the same building. I don’t think one can even determine conclusively if the figure is male or female, but perhaps an enhanced version of the withheld original film would.
Several people told me that Luna should call me to testify. I have been at this for longer than almost anyone still alive, and that includes the three experts who did testify; Oliver Stone, Jim DiEugenio, and Jefferson Morley. I’ve interviewed DiEugenio and we’ve had numerous exchanges on forums over the years. Morley appeared with me on a Travel Channel special about the assassination, and more recently was a panelist alongside me on the Union of the Unwanted podcast. He has become the go-to guy for big platforms, with a resume that includes working for The Washington Post for quite some time. Oliver Stone knows who I am. He has my books, because we have the same publisher, and they send all their books to their big name authors. He even has a signed copy of The Unreals, which I gave to his son Sean Stone, when I appeared on his RT show.
It is frustrating to watch elected officials grapple with the basic facts about such a momentous event, and rely on the absurd disinformation of the court historians. The number of Americans who believe JFK was killed by a conspiracy is still a majority, but has dipped significantly since peaking in the 1970s-1980s at close to 90 percent. This makes sense, since most Americans are now historically illiterate. Now, the ones who are awake obviously know Oswald didn’t do it, but we all know that we’re outnumbered by the “Woke,” the unthinking followers, and the disinterested. Smarmy Ben Shapiro further destroyed whatever audience he had left by questioning why anyone should care who killed JFK at this point. After all, it was over sixty years ago. I wonder if Little Ben thinks we should care about another part of history, something that happened over eighty years ago. I’m guessing he feels a bit differently about that.

Back when I was writing lots of poetry, and immersing myself in the old romantic poets, I came across a fascinating poem written by Sir Walter Raleigh around 1592, while he was imprisoned in the notorious Tower of London. Raleigh was eventually executed, and appears to have been a radical man after my own heart. He refers to telling the truth as a “thankless errand.” With everyone determined to “give the world the lie,” Here are a few salient lines from this remarkable poem:
Say to the court, it glows and shines like rotten wood;
Say to the church, it shows what’s good, and doth no good.
If church and court reply, then give them both the lie.
Tell men of high condition, that manage the estate,
Their purpose is ambition, their practice only hate.
And if they once reply, then give them all the lie.
“The Lie” had a profound impact on me as a youth. I was already seeing how pervasive dishonesty was in our society, even in our families. The Devil’s Dictionary was always at my fingertips, and I could understand why Ambrose Bierce called honest men and faithful women the rarest of rarities. I had, of course, discovered the lie of the JFK assassination official story. I would quickly determine this was not an anomaly, and that in fact we had been lied to about everything. The court historians lie to us about history. The highly paid “journalists” lie to us about current events. Even the sports I loved so much all my life were filled with “the lie,” as I am learning more with each word I write of my new book exposing the corruption in that world. I saw first hand how “the lie” permeated the workplace. Corporations and the government both seem to be fueled by “the lie.” There doesn’t appear to be a meritocracy anywhere.
As I hope I’ve demonstrated in my series of hidden history books, Americans are woefully misinformed about their past. They keep falling for new psyops and false flags, because they don’t know about the ones from the past. Their historical knowledge, at this point, is limited to an image of the Founding Fathers as hopelessly dead White men, who mostly owned slaves. Who thought Blacks were a fraction of a human being. I don’t know how many really think that modern Broadway star Alexander Hamilton, father of debt and favorite of international bankers, really was Black, but I’m sure some do. Maybe some think he’s still alive. They believe Lincoln was about as good as a dead White male can be. After all, he freed the slaves. They really don’t know much about the twentieth century, except that Nazis are bad. And still are, even though they were destroyed eighty years ago. They saved Hitler’s zombie brain or whatever. And Rosa Parks wouldn’t sit in the back of a bus. That’s about it.
Our fractional banking system is counterfeit. They lend money that isn’t backed by anything, and that they don’t actually have. That’s definitely part of “the lie.” The Hollywood fantasy about “White Supremacists” being a threat to humble and lovable Black citizens is repudiated by every crime statistic, and every anecdotal experience. Recently, a White honor roll student and high school football star was senselessly stabbed to death by a Black at a track meet. Apparently, he felt “disrespected.” You can’t let anyone, especially someone White, “disrespect” you. You have to react violently. It’s the code of the ‘hood. The code Hollywood and corporate America reinforce constantly. Shut up- a Black woman is talking! This ignorant ghetto creed now permeates society, and has replaced our culture with a mindless anti-culture. And you better respect it, or the anti-culture will kick your ass.

Could anything be a bigger lie than stating children can “change” their gender? Little boys can become girls? That “transgenders” with penises are legitimate female athletes? Hollywood promotes “the lie” that racial stereotypes can be reversed; where Black characters are kind, polite, brilliant, helpful, and wonderful parents, while Whites, especially White males, are like weak, helpless toddlers, but also can join skinhead and 1930s-style gangs, to rule the mean streets of our biggest cities. They also promote the dangerous idea that any female can beat up any male. Well, any White male. I’m sure this has already resulted in deluded young girls being severely injured. Not that our lying media would ever report that. They don’t report anything that contradicts their twisted narrative. The lie. Modern lies are just updated versions of the old Horatio Alger myths. Any boy can grow up to become president. The lie.
While there was at least some upward mobility in the past, it was limited. As I detailed in Survival of the Richest, if you’re born poor, you tend to stay that way. And if you’re born rich, you tend to stay rich. The middle class lifestyle was once the goal of most Americans. The picket fence surrounding your own yard, with little children frolicking about. But with the middle class being squeezed out of existence, what is the goal now for young Americans? The newest video game? Waiting for a more realistic sex bot? I’m not sure they even bother with lying at most jobs now. They can’t even advertise the starting salary. They’ll say it’s “competitive.” Okay, that sounds honest. You’ll work harder and longer for less. It’s an anti-Huey Long world. We demand loyalty but will not be loyal to you. The lie. Just hope you live long enough to be repaid at least some of the money they extorted from you for Social Security.
We have become so accustomed to a dishonest world that we create dishonest ones within our extended families, even in our own homes. Obviously, a lot of couples aren’t actually happy in marriage, or there wouldn’t be a 50 percent divorce rate. Clearly, your children aren’t your first priority when you’re willing to disrupt their world for the temporary thrill of another’s touch. As I’ve talked about before, family dysfunction- triggered by the poisonous propaganda of our cultural overlords, has created a situation where untold numbers of adult children don’t have contact with those who raised them. Sometimes, it’s the adult children who break off communication. Other times, it’s selfish Boomer parents who do so. To cut off relations with your closest loved ones, there must be some good reason, right? Some horrific goings on behind the scenes in those homes? Or is it all just part of “the lie?”
Can we trust anything, or anyone, at this point? Have we all been inspired to varying degrees by Satan, whom Jesus called the “first and greatest liar of them all?” As the great comedian Norm McDonald said, people often lie inexplicably. To quote from one of his routines, “Why am I lying here? I stand to gain nothing from this lie.” Some lies are acceptable, and even necessary for a civil society. No one should be blunt with another person, and hurt their feelings. Boy, do you look fat in that dress! I’ve never seen you so ugly! Damn, you’re really looking old! Our next potential Democratic nominee for president, the preposterously stupid ESPN talking head Steven A. Smith, constructed an elaborate lie to brag about a college basketball career he never had. What politician, in our lifetime, has not been caught repeatedly lying? All politicians lie, we’re told. Well, why do all politicians lie? Why do so many people lie?

Many, if not most of us lie about how much money we make. We exaggerate our own accomplishments, and the accomplishments of our children and grandchildren, to keep up with the Joneses. Who are also lying. Those who don’t make enough money- about 80 percent of the population- will claim they make more. And those who really are financially secure often try to downplay their wealth, and insist they have less than they really do. They’re probably terrified that some needy relative will come begging. I’ve lied and exaggerated many times. Especially in my youth, when trying to impress the pretty girls of America 1.0. Some people are so committed to dishonesty that they are willing to lie on the witness stand, knowingly framing someone for a crime. It doesn’t get much lower than that. And yet people we think are good, upstanding citizens have done this, and continue to do it, apparently unafraid of His judgment.
We’ve all heard the expression that someone is “living a lie.” This often refers to some closeted gay. Maybe someone who’s invented a fake persona. But in many ways, it’s hard for any of us not to live a lie, when we are surrounded and entrapped by dishonesty and insincerity. I don’t think lying is the most serious sin, but it is the most common. Sir Walter Raleigh was well ahead of his time. What would he think of today’s corrupt clown world? I don’t think he’d be willing to throw his coat over a puddle for any person alive today, let alone a member of the Royal Family. We must be honest with ourselves, and with each other, before we can demand honesty from our monstrous leaders. If honesty paid, if it resulted in great popularity and job prospects, then there might be more honest people. Remember how Diogenes searched for an honest man in vain. They’re rare, but they don’t have to be. Stop serving “the lie.” As the too often hypocritical Christians like to say, the truth shall set you free.
