The Deceivers

“Things are not always what they seem; the first appearance deceives many; the intelligence of a few perceives what has been carefully hidden.” ― Phaedrus

Most people are easily deceived by those who are practiced in the art of deception. The Deceivers create elaborate illusions about others based on who and what the Deceivers, themselves, are.

This process is called projection and its purpose is to manipulate by making the average person feel defensive as well as act as a cover for the Deceiver’s own shortcomings.

For those who have empathy, projection is a defense mechanism and usually not taken to extremes, unless implemented by a sociopath or narcissist.

“Narcissistic people often resort to projection to protect their self-image. Complaining about how someone else is so “showy” or “always needs attention” is one example of how a narcissist might project. They may also blame others for things that have gone wrong, rather than taking responsibility themselves. As the narcissist projects more shame and criticism onto another person, that individual’s self-doubt often grows, leading to a self-reinforcing cycle.” Projection. Psychology Today.

For those without empathy, like psychopaths, it’s a weapon albeit not necessarily a conscious one, since the psychopath is also very adept at self-deception. They exist in a paradoxical world where they know they’re lying but they believe their own lies, both about themselves and about others. At least that’s been my personal observation.

The average North American’s self-interest and tendency towards willful ignorance also prevents them from seeing the reality. It’s self-deception at its finest: “If I don’t acknowledge it, I don’t have to deal with it; It doesn’t exist, so there’s nothing to see or address; They bring it on themselves, it’s their own fault; It’s just drama and both sides are wrong; etc., etc.”

The Deceivers take advantage of these tendencies while also employing Demagoguery in order to implement their propaganda/smear campaigns. Demagogic methods are required to shape and weaponize the narrative necessary to build any propaganda campaign.

All propaganda relies on demagoguery as its foundation.

The ChatGPT AI tries to rationalize a difference by claiming propaganda is for the purpose of “shaping opinions” and therefore okay, while also admitting it could be biased and provide information selectively.

Bias and selective information in a narrative is deception by definition and therefore a demagogic method.

The AI skips over this fact, ironically making its own analysis propaganda by exhibiting bias in favor of propaganda through its non-standard definitions of both demagoguery and propaganda.

Follows is the ChatGPT AI response to the question: “What is the difference between demagoguery and propaganda?”

Demagoguery:

Definition: Demagoguery refers to the actions of a demagogue, who is a political leader that gains popularity by exciting the emotions of ordinary people rather than relying on good or morally right ideas.

Characteristics:

Emotional Manipulation: Demagogues manipulate emotions to gain support.

Scapegoating: They often blame specific groups for societal problems.

Fear-Mongering: Exaggerating threats to create fear.

Anti-Intellectualism: Discrediting experts and reasoned debate.

Populist Appeals: Championing the cause of the common people.

Oratory Skills: Using persuasive speech to sway crowds.

Example: A demagogue might exploit fear and prejudice to rally support against a minority group.

Propaganda:

Definition: Propaganda involves a concerted set of messages aimed at influencing the opinions or behavior of large numbers of people. It can be used for various purposes, including political, social, or commercial.

Purpose: Propaganda seeks to shape public opinion, often by presenting information selectively or with a specific bias.

Types of Propaganda:

Civic Rhetoric: Some propaganda supports liberal ideals and democratic values.

Dangerous Propaganda: Other forms can be democratically dangerous.

Relationship to Public Reason: The key difference lies in their relationship to public reason.

Example: A government spreading messages to promote its policies or ideology can be considered propaganda.

In summary, while both demagoguery and propaganda involve influencing people, demagoguery relies on emotional manipulation by a leader, whereas propaganda encompasses broader messaging efforts aimed at shaping opinions.

Propaganda (standard Encyclopedia Britannica definition)

“Propaganda, dissemination of information—facts, arguments, rumors, half-truths, or lies—to influence public opinion. It is often conveyed through mass media.”

11 Types Of Propaganda & The Uses Of Each Propaganda

Note that each type involves the use of a logical fallacy and is, therefore using demagoguery which is argument by logical fallacy.

Demagoguery (standard Vocabulary definition)

“Demagoguery is an appeal to people that plays on their emotions and prejudices rather than on their rational side. Demagoguery is a manipulative approach that appeals to the worst nature of people. Demagoguery isn't based on reason, issues, and doing the right thing; it's based on stirring up fear and hatred to control people.”

Fallacies

“One of the signs of demagoguery is heavy reliance on fallacies. Whether demagogues use fallacies because they are cynical about their audience (thinking their audience is too stupid to catch them), or whether their own thinking is really so deeply flawed (so that they believe their own fallacious arguments) is a fascinating question, but probably can’t be solved. Fallacies are argumentative moves that frustrate the ability of the interlocutors to settle the conflict discursively because they violate basic rules and/or logic; they are, in that sense, unreasonable.”

If there are solid rational arguments based on sound logic and demonstrable empirical evidence to believe in something or engage in some action or activity, then it isn’t propaganda and doesn’t use demagoguery, whether it’s promoted by an individual leader or mass messaging or what it’s intended purpose is.

Being selective about the information provided, is deceptive, exhibits a bias, and is demagoguery by definition because people are being manipulated into accepting a position or committing an action based on incomplete information.

While ChatGPT admits that’s precisely what propaganda does, it doesn’t consider it manipulation or demagoguery.

So much for AI “logic”.

Demagogic Propaganda

We saw demagogic propaganda in action, on a global scale, during the “pandemic” campaign. It became obvious to many of us that this was pre-planned and systematically orchestrated as well as intentionally exploited as a platform to both promote and implement the World Economic Foundation’s (WEF) fascist “Reset” Agenda.

All of the above methods in both the propaganda and demagoguery lists were used at one time or another during this period.

Members of the WEF, like King Charles (Prince at the time) publicly announced it was time for the Global Puppet Masters to implement their plan in June, 2020: Pandemic is chance to reset global economy, says Prince Charles: Prince of Wales: unveils a five-point plan to stimulate sustainable economic growth

The Canadian Department of Defense also publicly admitted that they were going to use this as an opportunity to implement and test the propaganda machine they’ve been developing.

Their target? The Canadian population: Military campaign to influence public opinion continued after defence chief shut it down: Military scoured social media in Ontario and launched a fake wolf scare in Nova Scotia

Anyone who didn’t go along with the “pandemic” scam was effectively declared an “enemy of the state” and treated accordingly: Rachel Marsden: Intelligence assessment targeting the Freedom Movement gets it wrong

Note that most supporters of the Freedom Movement Convoy were jabbed. Canada used such coercive methods that many people didn’t have a choice. 90% of Canadians complied with the first two jabs. They were protesting on behalf of those of us who refused the jab and in support of our rights as well as to prevent future such intrusions into the lives of Canadians.

Peaceful participants and their supporters were subjected to frequently violent arrests with no concern given as to whether the person arrested was disabled or a senior; seized property; froze bank accounts; the fund-raising site was hacked exposing donors to targeting by government agencies, the banks, employers, and others. Aside from the direct personal attacks, harassment and smear campaigns.

Doctors who rejected the propaganda were targeted with smear campaigns, personal attacks, censure by professional bodies, or were subject to draconian measures like psychological “re-education”.

The mRNA jab isn’t a vaccine, doesn’t behave like a vaccine, and is now proven not to be safe. Despite claims to the contrary. Big Pharma and governments around the world demonstrated a reckless disregard for the well-being of the people they coerced into taking the jab through mandates and other coercive measures.

Given that there were inexpensive, generic treatments that were proven to work both as prophylactics and as treatments, all of the draconian measures were unnecessary.

The only conditions where such measures might be considered acceptable are, in my opinion:

1. The illness is highly contagious and global

2. There are no effective treatments

3. There is a high mortality rate if anyone gets the illness

None of these conditions existed.

While the illness was global and contagious (like the flu), there were effective treatments and prophylactics, and the mortality rate was extremely low unless you got the severe version of the illness which was also treatable but had a higher mortality rate. The people who died before the mRNA jab was introduced, had compromised immune systems as a result of illness, disability or old age (over 80). This was known early on.

The mRNA technology used to create the jab was also known to be extremely high risk and the conditions didn’t justify the risk.

Rising Up!

Despite the draconian measures, the push-back and resistance has become huge. Now that people are alerted and understand the real agenda the World Economic Forum (WEF) is pushing, an agenda of global fascism, depopulation and super-exploitation, they are standing up to it globally. And, they’re doing so on a mass scale despite the smears claiming they’re all “right-wing extremists” and “anti-vaxxers”. Neither of which is true.

This is a global workers movement. It was born in the flames of resistance to this new global fascism and anyone who doesn’t understand that or the significance of such a movement doesn’t belong in activism.

Unfortunately, that includes a large segment of the North America “left” and smaller segments in Europe who have adopted pro-establishment positions and effectively abandoned the working class while paying lip service to defending “working class interests”.

It was precisely such a movement that Hitler exploited as his base to get elected and eventually gain absolute power in Germany. Could this by why MSM is promoting it as “right wing” and propping up certain individuals as “leaders” despite the fact that most of the protestors had no idea who they were?

Are we going to allow history to repeat itself? Or are we going to learn from history?

While large segments of the population have fallen for the demagogic propaganda, a solid portion have not and they are the one’s leading this resistance against this new global fascism and the “Young Global Leader” Fifth Columns that have been inserted into our governments by both the WEF and the Israeli Lobbies through their Epstein-style cults.

Fifth Column: “According to Harris Mylonas and Scott Radnitz, "fifth columns" are "domestic actors who work to undermine the national interest, in cooperation with external rivals of the state". The activities of a fifth column can be overt or clandestine. Forces gathered in secret can mobilize openly to assist an external attack. This term is also extended to organized actions by military personnel. Clandestine fifth column activities can involve acts of sabotage, disinformation, espionage, and/or terrorism executed within defense lines by secret sympathizers with an external force.”

Another lesson to be learned from history: During the era of the American Civil Rights movement, the influential black leaders who advocated for and successfully built broad-based mass movement unity, like that which occurred during the Freedom Movement Convoy, were assassinated: Martin Luther King, Malcolm X and Fred Hampton.

They were assassinated because the state considered such broad-based unity a significant threat.

The state still does, which is another reason why the “right wing extremist” smear has been used so readily. It’s also why there is a focus on identity politics and victim ideology. All can and are being exploited in divide and rule campaigns to weaken such mass movements when they occur.

The anti-police brutality movement which was building across North America in 2014 was quickly destroyed by Mainstream Media when they converted it into a race issue: an issue of police violence against the black community. If this was a sincere attempt to draw attention to a vulnerable community, the focus would have gone to the First Nations who, statistically, have the largest number of victims of police brutality. The numbers are significantly higher in this community, and the Latino community suffers approximately the same level of brutality as the black community. Don’t they also matter?

In reality, police brutality targets all vulnerable communities including poor, disabled (mentally/physically) and homeless whites.

Racism, the Canadian Way

The anti-racism movement was destroyed in Canada using a similar strategy when Mainstream Media divided the issue of racism by race, which, in and of itself is racist. That’s no surprise coming from Canadian MSM which has a long history of racism.

The focus became a concept invented by MSM: “anti-black” racism.

Meanwhile the main targets of systemic racism in Canada, over the last 100+ years have been the Asian, Japanese, South Asian and First Nations communities. Not the Black community.

In addition, Canada’s slaves were mostly First Nations when slavery was legal. Abolishing slavery in the late 1790s freed the black community in Canada, but did little to help the First Nations who continued to be subjected to racist systemic intrusions into their communities, like Residential Schools.

Through the early to mid-1900s:

• Asians were subjected to a Head Tax; barred from buying land in certain areas (British Properties), immigrating, working in the professions, or bringing their families to Canada. Notable racist incident: The Anti-Asian riots led by the Asiatic Exclusion League in Vancouver in 1907. This was part of the “Keep Canada White” movement.

• The Japanese, under the Gentleman’s Agreement between Canada and Japan were restricted to only 400 male immigrants per year but women and children were allowed to immigrate. In 1928, the limit was dropped to 150. The Anti-Asian laws preventing Asians from working in the professions were also applied to the Japanese. Notable racist incident: During World War II, the entire Japanese community was interned. All of their properties and business were seized and sold while they were held in prison camps for the duration of the war.

• South Asians were barred from buying land in certain areas (British Properties), working in the professions, and from bringing their families to Canada. Notable racist incidents: The “Keep Canada White” movement targeting Asians and South Asians, the Komagata Maru incident (1914) (Continuous Passage Law) and the attempt by the Canadian government to deport the entire community to the British Honduras as indentured servants.

All had their right to vote revoked: Asians in 1874, Japanese in 1895 and South Asians, who were British Subjects, in 1907.

It was restored after the Canadian Citizenship Act was passed in 1947: Asians and South Asians were granted the right to vote in 1948; the Japanese in 1949; and the First Nations in 1950.

On the other hand, the black community in Canada doesn’t have a history of being targeted by systemic racism after slavery was abolished in the late 1790s. In fact, Canada, historically, has been a refuge for American and Jamaican black slaves who freed themselves.

Black Canadians gained the right to vote in 1834 and were elected to public office at various levels starting in 1859.

They were able to buy land and build the town of Africville in Nova Scotia in the late 1700s. A town which later consisted mostly of escaped American slaves, Jamaican Maroons (ex-Jamaican slaves) and black Loyalist refugees from the war of 1812.

I don’t doubt they were subjected to discrimination but it obviously wasn’t systemic (built into the system).

That’s demagoguery for you!
