and it's the perfect word to encapsulate what the fuck Ive been observing of this world for the last 9 years.
always thought it was bizarre that nowadays a person can lie and bullshit, everyone being aware of it
and actually be okay with it as if the bullshit is sane and normal.
Just complete acceptance. Weaponized overton window in real time.
I guess it makes sense. its all by the design. the collective gaslighting, The inversion dynamic where if there's enough institutions, media, and voices repeat the inverted reality so consistently that the sane person starts questioning their own perception.
To be become so disoriented that even if I was right about everything, the social and institutional consensus will keep trying to me otherwise. Maybe that kind of long-term contradiction between what you know and what you're told is true would've worn me down before but now I'm aware and I have my solution.

Political division exacerbates this. You have such an extreme, shifting, and loony orthodoxy at both political fringes that they try to recast reality.
In the horseshoe theory of politics these extremes are closer to each other than the normals. This actually makes sense, given similar obsessions with race and gender.

im pretty sure horseshoe theory is cope, tbh. You can really only push this if you have some romantised view of pre-internet times where you couldnt tell that the media lies.
