Left and Right is Wrong.
Do you think in terms of Left and Right when it comes to politics and political ideology? As previously mentioned, B.A.D.A.S.S. abhors this divisive political paradigm.
Politics is about Power and the authority it grants government to manage our affairs, including the control societal wealth and freedom. The quest for Absolute Power attracts the most unethical individuals and they inevitably corrupt the system in their favour.
Their most powerful tool is control of information because information provides us with much of our knowledge and understanding on every topic. This means that control of information is the base corruptor that sits at the root of all other corruption, which makes B.A.D.A.S.S.’s ability to discern Deceit and its impact on the political process the most powerful defensive weapon on the planet. B.A.D.A.S.S. may be the best Fake News analytical tool on the planet right now and everyone who desires Liberty should wish to understand it. Don’t be afraid to ask questions!
Deceit corrupts information and turns it into intellectual poison. The trusted consumption of that toxic stew deforms our perceptions and deludes our beliefs. Subsequently, our actions are based in ignorance and confusion rather than knowledge and understanding. The corrupt Rulers then exploit our ignorance to gain and strengthen their political Power. While we believe our vote matters and that we’re defending democratic ideals, in reality we are blindly and willingly engaged in a mad dash toward Tyranny. COVID-19 brought this totalitarian truth to light in 2020, and we’ve yet to find the strength to beat it back.
The goal today is to reveal several systemic problems in the Left-Right political model that prove the paradigm is false, making it another phenomenal Fake News Narrative success story that benefits Tyranny in its existential war against Liberty.
Power represents the actual divide in society and a useful political model would accurately represent that truth with a horizontal line drawn between the Rulers who wield that Power and the Ruled who are bound by it rather than a vertical line separating the Ruled into opposing “Left” and “Right” factions.
One great mistake we make is to believe that vertical line also divides the Rulers, and that those we elect will legislate according to shared ideological values. That is true to some degree, but it is a weak counterbalance because government as a whole simply keeps growing as each new law is added to the total of all previous laws and bureaucracies find new areas in need of their regulatory expertise.
This unbridled growth continues until one day the Ruled wake up to a corrupt world governed by the Law of Rulers instead of the Rule of Law. The Ruled can complain that the government is violating all sorts of charters and rights, but it won’t matter because at that point the Ruled will be negotiating with a corrupt, self-serving Ruler class that has already broken the law as written.
Take the Canadian Trucker Freedom convoy as an example. They were in Ottawa seeking the ear of Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who ignored them and then arrested some and froze bank accounts. The government then deemed freedom protests in Ottawa illegal.
My sympathies lie with the truckers, but it is waste of time to negotiate with abusive, law-breaking governments because they have placed themselves above the law. What government is supposedly allowed to do is meaningless to a corrupt government who will simply do what they please and rely on the system they’ve corrupted to protect them from the Ruled they are mistreating.
Corrupt governments take the expression “it is often easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission” to stratospheric new heights when they break laws and later change the law to fit their actions.
A recent example of this is the proposed call for a global “pandemic treaty” that will give the WHO the power to run the world in the event of a declared pandemic, a declaration they will make. The Absolute Power grab is obvious to most but what this treaty will also do is protect the corrupt governments that committed human right violations with the implementation of the unnecessary and unjustified COVID-19 Response that is proving to be a very successful test of global political authority.
There is a myriad of examples in western society where the rules apply to the Ruled but not the Rulers and they support the contention that the great societal divide is up and down, not left and right.
The moment the Ruled are separated into multiple parties is the moment they begin to fight amongst themselves rather than against those whose goal is to exercise control of a society’s wealth and freedom.
Large numbers of people who share fundamental values such as a desire for freedom of speech or the right to bear arms and self-protect are divided and placed on competing political teams. This automatically weakens the strength of the Ruled to defend those values against a rapacious Ruler class that understands those very rights and values pose a significant threat to their ability to Rule as they desire.
The largest threat to a power-hungry Ruler class is a united and determined Ruled population and that is why the Ruler class loves the multi-party system and why democracies ultimately self-destruct and leave some form of Tyranny in their wake.
Of course, a single party Tyranny like Communism is no better so if the free world is able to avoid that looming fate, it will still need to rethink and restructure the self-governance model because if COVID-19 has brought us any positives at all, it is to prove that demockracies are a sick joke and the Ruled are the butt of it.
The B.A.D.A.S.S. methodology evaluates information based on its relationship to Reality. Deceitful information causes perceptions to diverge away from Reality, leading to misperceptions and delusional beliefs that if large enough will pose a grave danger to the victimized society.
This deceit-based approach frees the analysis of ideological influences. This independence allows it to separate untrustworthy information from trustworthy information. In doing so we have the opportunity to avoid consuming information that will lead to inaccurate and unreliable conclusions. Better yet, we can then trust and rely on our conclusions because our knowledge will be formed from truthful information and our understanding will reflect Reality.
For a number of reasons, the Left-Right paradigm inevitably injects ideology into the information trust equation, and it becomes second nature to grant trust to like-minded sources and quickly reject conflicting sources.
Children’s first strong political influence comes from parents and as children normally trust parents most, they are initially prone to adopt the parent’s political ideology and trust the information sources that support it.
However, we have also been conditioned to trust teachers and that becomes a real problem when the academic system itself becomes ideologically corrupt. That corruption taints both the curriculums and the instructors hired to teach them. Students soak it all in like the sponges they are, and groupthink peer pressure pushes them to trust sources that confirm their group’s understanding.
People don’t rely on an ability to separate Truth from Deceit when choosing their information sources, that critical decision is based on trust that has been baked into each of us from an early age. If the general populace understood how to identify Deceit as the B.A.D.A.S.S. methodology does, the Ruler class would lose its ability to drive a totalitarian agenda on a free people. It would not be able to separate us into warring “Left” and “Right” wings. Rather, we would separate them from the Power they have stolen.
Be honest with yourself. If you stand on one side or the other, how do you choose to reject the other side’s message? Is it as simple as labelling it as left-wing propaganda or right-wing disinformation? Why is “wing” the determinant factor and not Truth?
Some lazily dismiss the other side’s message by claiming both sides lie. However, if that is the case then the correct action at that point would be to reject both side’s message. If both are lying, then why allow either side to deform your perceptions and delude your beliefs? Why would you knowingly risk being deceived?
Some take a pragmatic, open-minded approach where they read both sides and figure the Truth lies somewhere in between. The issue here is determining just where that point is. Does the Truth lie right in the middle, just off the left, or just off the right? How does one’s current understanding not impact that discernment, and what if those current beliefs are wrong?
Then there is the exhortation to “do your own research”. On the whole, this isn’t bad advice but once again, how do you choose what information to trust? How do you discern Truth? Does a left-right bias guide your direction? What about confirmation bias? Social bias? Influencer or celebrity bias? What about the Tech Giant’s ability to push you towards information of their choosing?
The left-right model does not foster rational discussion, it purposefully prevents it. Both sides are blinded by the fog of that information war, which keeps them divided and the corrupt Rulers in Power. The Truth takes only one side, Reality’s.
Reality is the one bias you can trust to not warp your understanding of the world, but the Truth of Reality can often be very difficult to discern. However, as I’ve shown in “B.A.D.A.S.S. Begins” and the “Fire Them All” series, Deceit can be found and when it comes to COVID-19, quantified.
As Deceit is a direct attack on Reality, it is NOT Truth and therefore its presence is proof that the message cannot be trusted. The skill of identifying Deceit also allows one to discern what information sources not to trust. Furthermore, it permits one to understand that the Truth is opposite of the Deceit.
COVID-19 is a Fake News Narrative because there are Mega-D’ohms of Deceit to be found in the COVID-19 models and PCR Test Protocols. As the COVID-19 Response was the result of these Deceits, we can conclude that the COVID-19 Response is the very opposite of a savior, a point proven by the global oppression that we’ve lived under for more than two years.
As difficult as it is for many to accept, the rational conclusion is that every individual and institution that hawked the Fake COVID-19 Narrative is completely untrustworthy. You place yourself at great risk by consuming information on any subject from these people or institutions.
The consumption of information is a much more intimate act than many understand because of its ability to control perceptions, beliefs, and actions. Deceit a dangerous betrayal of that intimacy and deceivers are wholly unworthy of entering your mind. The primary purpose of Fake News deception is the acquisition of Political Power, and the Ruler class are the only ones that benefit.
The graphic below is a simple representation of the Left-Right political paradigm.
LEFT SUCKER RIGHT
|_____________________________________________________________________________|
How would you represent a political system of Liberty or Tyranny on this map? Would Liberty be dead center, with Tyranny surrounding it on both extremes? How would you show shifts in political Power? For example, what would a country’s slide into despotism look like?
This model is woefully inadequate for visualizing systems of Liberty or Tyranny. Ask yourself which group benefits from this failure, the Rulers or the Ruled?
Contrast the vertical L-R split with the horizontal Ruler/Ruled split below that is the simplest way of representing political Power and changing political realities.
Contained inside the box is the sum total of society’s wealth and freedom. The Liberty Line represents the split between the Rulers and Ruled and the placement of the Liberty Line reflects the percentage of societal wealth and freedom controlled by either side.
In theory, the Liberty Line would move up as Government ceded control of wealth and freedom to the people, and down as Government grabbed more control of wealth and freedom. The greater the transfer of control, the more the line moves.
For example, in the early days of the United States, the Liberty Line would have been near the top when the Bill of Rights and the Constitution were still respected by the Rulers. By contrast, COVID-19 lockdowns would have the Liberty Line hovering close to the bottom and the Liberty Line would move down or up as restrictions are added or relaxed. However, keep in mind that it is the Authority to add or relax restrictions that represents Power.
In democracies, the Liberty Line naturally trends downward over the years as each new Government adds laws and regulations without making the effort to substantially purge old ones. This graphic makes it easy to visualize the impact of that continual growth or the instantaneous changes of lockdowns.
The Left-Right political model is a manipulative tool that does more than divide the Ruled into warring factions. In large part, Fake News is a psychological operation that utilizes emotion to move the masses in a particular direction so it should come as no surprise to learn that that there is a psychologically persuasive aspect to the Left-Right paradigm as well, which is how the paradigm turns Center into Sucker.
The Left-Right model places a moderate middle between two polarizing extremes for a reason.
The middle is portrayed as the land of thoughtful consideration, an even-keeled center that is respectful of all acceptable views making it a more neutral, safe place where bi-partisanship rules amongst a courteous, though politically raucous, process of give and take.
Those who inhabit the extremes are portrayed as violent, closed-minded bigots of the worst kind. Conspiracy theorists of the highest order, ignorant individuals who remain impervious to science and reason. People to be shunned and ostracized, not welcomed and supported.
What normal person does not want to be seen as reasonable, thoughtful, considerate, pragmatic, and respectful? Wouldn’t anyone with a modicum of intelligence find it important to elevate facts over baseless conspiracy?
Just a reminder, have I mentioned anywhere that Deceit flips everything upside down and turns forward to backward?
Now, consider this. What happens if the “middle”, that wondrous center, is primarily defined by Fake News Narratives rather than political party or ideology? The perceptions and beliefs of those resting comfortably in the center will be delusional, and the views of the hated, Fake Narrative denying extremists will be more accurate as they will sit much closer to Reality.
Politically, then, the media will support the politicians and parties whose policy ideas best adhere to the Fake Narrative and the media will throw their heaviest support behind those with the best chance of winning the election and implementing those policies.
Obviously, like-minded elected officials from other parties will generally support those policy ideas. They may quibble over minor details, but for the most part, they will help drive that Fake News agenda forward.
For proof of this concept, look at how the media has typically treated the violent actions of Antifa and Black Lives Matter. Does the media decry Antifa’s assaults on old, peaceful freedom protestors or denounce Black Lives Matter for the looting and fiery destruction of Black owned businesses? No, rather than brand these groups as extremists, what the media does is find reasons – racism, fascism - to justify those group’s violent, repugnant, and murderous behaviors.
The reason for this is that these group’s actions work in conjunction with the media’s Fake News Narratives. The thuggish actions are justified because they align with the agenda. This process effectively “centers” these groups, placing them firmly in the political middle and in doing so suckers the decent-hearted people who want to be thought of as moderate, considerate, and rational into supporting and defending the very opposite.
The fraudulent Left-Right paradigm is harmful to decent people and toxic to systems of Liberty. It is another phenomenal Fake News success story that proves the incredible destructive influence of a media that speaks with Tyranny’s Tongue.
Next week’s topic, The COVID-19 Climate, will feature a pattern recognition challenge to help reveal that Fake News is not a random big lie that happens to go viral but a well-planned, well-executed, well-structured, repeatable political process that transfers wealth and freedom from the Ruled to the Rulers.
If you have successfully broken the methodology’s logic presented in B.A.D.A.S.S. Begins or the “Fire Them All” series please let me know so I can move onto something new but if you can’t then please give this post a thumbs up in support!
Also, if the logic holds and Tyranny is prevented from completing its takeover of the world, all the verifiable evidence you are waiting for to feel sure that the B.A.D.A.S.S. methodology works and that its conclusions have been accurate will eventually come out. Much of it already has. Why wait any longer? Trust B.A.D.A.S.S. now and share it with your family and friends so everyone can learn to protect themselves from Deceit.
