We can be cautious, but we can also celebrate a little.
The original article can be found here, though all you need to know about it is the term they use.
In another pleasing twist of the Trump Effect, the Guardian has put out a short article detailing the ‘word of the year’ winner; “Post-Truth” which has been added to the Oxford dictionary this glorious current year.
You might ask me why I’m discussing a single term from a single article. As I will cover later: it is a sign of the left’s fear; fear borne of the knowledge that their gravy train may soon be derailed and plummet into a ravine of fire and brimstone. Let’s just get straight into the context in which they present this new term:
Defined by the dictionary as an adjective “relating to or denoting circumstances in which objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief”, editors said that use of the term “post-truth” had increased by around 2,000% in 2016 compared to last year. The spike in usage, it said, is “in the context of the EU referendum in the United Kingdom and the presidential election in the United States”.
To a devout liberal who has spent the last few decades on top of the political podium, the overton window once safely shifting in their direction, this gobbledygook might make some sense; if not in any logical sense then at least emotionally. To the liberal, the transition we have seen in the last half a decade or so towards actual truth and rational discussion of issues is a shocking and highly distressing trend. The liberal has thrived lo these several decades upon an outright denial of facts so basic that our ancestors understood them implicitly for hundreds of thousands of years. “Race doesn’t exist”, “There are at least 50 genders”, “Whiteness is oppressive” they told us. And many of our people have fallen for this false song of internationalist cosmopolitanism. But now, with the advent of the alt-right and other genuinely reactionary, even revolutionary, movements – the people are seeing a way out of this thick web of globalist lies and are flocking in our direction.
Naturally, the liberals see this and know it must stop. Their numerical advantage is being held in the balance. And more importantly, their credibility and thus their hold over the minds of average people is plummeting. “Who controls the media controls the democracy” – I believe that this was a quote from the late and great Dr. William Luther Pierce. But if the citizens of a democracy stop paying attention to the establishment media, what then? And naturally, this great exodus is occurring for little other reason than that a critical mass of people now finally understands that the talking heads on the evening news stations simply cannot be trusted. Like something out of the Truman show on a galactic scale, the wool is being lifted from weary eyes en masse. And it is perhaps precisely because this is happening on the basis of a total lack of factual credibility on the part of the main stream media, that the Guardian and their Oxford Dictionary gatekeeper buddies, as well as the ‘intellectuals’ who have popularised this term, are coming out with this term. As the saying goes, the jew cries out in pain as he strikes you.
You see, it is not that the media have been lying on a daily basis in order to mold the peasants’ impression of their overlords, it is that the peasants have finally begun to believe post-truths… Maybe it’s because they’re racist! Sexist! Anti-Semitic! After all, jews own all of the major media networks. But pointing that out would be a post-truth. Because it’s true, but completely… offensive and mean! Now that their puerile labels won’t stick anymore, they have to come up with something even more vague and nondescript, and even harder to falsify than ‘bigoted’ or ‘xenophobic’: cue “Post-Truth”.
Who cares if Trump is pointing out correctly the way in which his country, and the west at large, have been declining over the last half a century? He’s merely spouting post-truth. Just as Hillary Rodham Clinton told us, get on it, fact-checkers! Better yet, go to her website to get all the facts checked.
My feelings are hurt! Fact-checkers, I need you!
Welcome to the next wave of SJW newspeak.
Though I’ve adopted a complaining stance in this article so far, this is by no means a development I look upon with dread or concern of any type. Quite to the contrary, this development is very positive. It’s a concrete manifestation of the left’s ongoing withdrawal into the shadows from whence it sprouted.
Firstly, it’s a sign that their emotive and vacuous labels aren’t going to matter in Trump’s new world. People are beginning to give up caring whether some vapid liberal tells them that they’re racist, homophobic, buzzword, etc. After all, what credibility do these types have left anymore? None, to anybody who’s thinking properly.
Secondly, it’s a weak word. Whereas ‘racist’ was pointed and could affect change in the lives of those to whom the label was affixed, i.e. losing jobs or friends, post-truth is interchangeable with ‘fibber’ but doesn’t even have the emotional traction of said word. In being so weak, it’s a sign of the left’s desperation. It’s a signal of their fear; a ‘retreat word’; damage control…
Third, it’s an ironic choice of terminology. The whole point about truth is that it will out eventually. Truth is the natural state of the universe, only man can misinterpret or pervert it to create fictions to superimpose onto the immutable universe around him. And so, the downfall of liberal ideology we see unfolding before us in real time is a natural consequence of this natural law. Their lies are being seen for what they are, and so what other reaction can the world’s premier swindlers and their liberal pets come up with than “No you’re lying!” You can be sure a person has lost the argument when they cover their ears and start calling you “liar liar”.
For all of these reasons, it seems doubtful that we will ever see this word thrown around much outside of self-important intellectual circles. Deep down, they probably know how idiotic this newspeak sounds. (Or do they? That may forever remain a great mystery.) But cucks never fail to impress with the depths to which they will stoop and the extent to which they will humiliate themselves by using the stalest of memes and the most irrelevant of buzzwords. So perhaps you can expect to hear it here and there. And when and if you do have the fortune to hear one of them use it, smile and laugh. It is a sign of their desperation. It may as well be a white flag, if a decade or so before the fact. View it as another facet of Kek’s great gift to humanity. The wrath of the chaos God continues unabated…
