We’re not allowed to ask about what seems to be the deliberate demographic transformation of the United States. While the left and the cheap-labor businessis establishment go about engineering that transformation , the rest of us are not allow to challenge it , or are called racists for suggesting a different mix of immigrants. Even though the advocates of the current mix have a racially related goal of their own - a goal were not allowed to discuss.

Worth repeating. Caucasians are systematically being reduced as a demographic presence.

.......... but we are told ........

The media are not our friends. I think we realized that back when Walter Cronkite surreptitiously began to reveal his communist sympathies and his contempt for the United States.

And, like every other arena in America, they no longer hide their treason. It's now mainstream.

Marilyn Monroe was a whore and got into trouble for it. She got fired for her Playboy layout. Today, that's the first thing an aspiring actress puts on her resume, viz. her porn history.

How far the mighty (the USA) have fallen.

“Tell a lie often enough and the low information voters will accept it as gospel”.

Yep The Atlantic BS story is a perfect example. Every lying detail repeated over and over for three days on every network. It worked, the polling just done definitely reflects a lot of people believed it. Some will roll back as the truth leaks out ever so quietly.

Well done. Needs much broader distribution. Point made and blunted but that is OK in this case.

Its origin is from the Alfred Hitchcock, “Gaslight”. Once you see it, you’ll understand.

Interesting that the old movie ‘Gas Light’ was on the Movies TV channel as I was reading this just now.

The word is thrown around a lot now, but it’s a case of, “I don’t think that word means what you think it means.” Mostly, it isn’t true “gaslighting”.

The 1944 film starred Ingrid Bergman and Charles Boyer.

Excellent post.
The insanity of the left today that we are required to swallow, IS insane. Some examples;

1-socialism works and capitalism doesn’t
2-cause violent riots and call it peaceful summer of love
3-defund the police
4-disarm the non violent citizenry (which leaves us all vulnerable to irrational mobs and government after 2 and 3 above)
5-prioritize peer pressure and emotion over true rational logic.

It IS insane. And we as conservative true liberals in the classical sense have to start standing up and calling it what it is. And there are only two rational possibilities going on here with these people;

Either they are manipulated, ignorant, moral-less idiots fools in the worst sense......or they are evil with truly bad intentions.
And we have got to start not being afraid of calling out evil because if they win it WILL be Hell on Earth.

Don’t forget right after 9/11, Bush called Islam “A Religion of Peace.” It was such a giant example of gaslighting and I was shocked the country didn’t call him out on it. But, no. The morons had to keep up the PC poop. No one had the courage to speak the truth.
