The Road to War Is Paved with Lies
It's said that truth is the first casualty of war but the truth is the truth isn't just offed but is offed long before any bombs are dropped or missiles fired. For money-junkie ponzi-pumping gangster bankers their servile deep-state agents and puppet politicians the largest part of advancing their aggressively cancerous grasping ambitions has always involved the fashioning of attitudes and moulding of opinions has always revolved around tireless attempts to engineer the kinds of anxieties and fears that trigger blind consent luring the guileless herds to the death merchants' side conning the trusting rabble they hold in sheer contempt into falling for the folly of going along for the ride on the road of deceit which leads to the bloodshed peddler's prize paved as it is with a mind-bending blend of aggregates that run the gamut from barefaced lies egregious distortions and monstrous omissions to subtle innuendo-suffused half-truths — on the hubris-coated road of power-drunk decisions that leads to a store that sells the horrors of war. In pursuit of as close to total control of the scope and direction of the narrative's deception as possible the perennial weapon in the war planner's arsenal — the propagandist's pride and joy — perception management's invariably deployed with its battery of malicious fabrications rationality-jamming emotional manipulations; with its masterfully marketed ritual fictions evoking vicious foes and evil rogue regimes; with its demonizing depictions of unsubmissive peoples or persons as irredeemable atrocity-spawning vermin. And often all for what but to wag the dog yet always to further enrich a malignant cabal of spiritually-sick already-wealthy villains by doing the vile morbid bidding of amity's enemy by throwing wide open the devil's front door paving the way for that glorified obscenity that triumph of madness the convoy of war. Capped with a mix of a deathly quiet about facts that don't fit the fraudulent myth and a steady riot of highly hyped bits and bytes and clips of doctored reality there's a highway of lies and psy-ops that leads from mere words and memes and pixels on screens to unspeakable deeds and greenlit depravity while the drumbeat of war plays its age-old role in drowning out voices of sense and dissent as the fear profiteers through their media control do all they can to steer and cheer on the censoring of sensible women and men.
