TIMES
Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well... You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect...
In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.
They are desperately hide the elephant (Israel's mass murders) and even ready to dump the entire next generation into oblivion. Is Scott Galloway...
Palestine is just one of the victim countries were organ and child sex trafficking occur. The Ukraine is another. It is interesting that both are...
The globalists have no strategy, nor any leaders with intelligence. They have always used deception, force and terrorism to undermine sovereign...
From reading this article, it is apparent that the fascist government model is alive and well, but for many not seen. They just give it a new...

"One would hardly believe that during the last half of the fifteenth century and well into the sixteenth, a red-hot feminist controversy raged in Europe like the plague, and that virtually all the capable male minds of the time lent themselves to it, some maintaining that woman is by nature an inferior being, properly subject to man, and others maintaining the contrary. The subject had a large literature before the invention of printing; and after that, a great number of books appeared." The Superfluous Man p219 Albert Nock
"With the decline of the power of the Church and of the religious world view, in the seventeenth century, the inquisitor-witch complex disappeared and in its place there arose the alienist madman complex. In the new--secular and "scientific"--cultural climate, as in any other, there were still the disadvantaged, the disaffected, and the men who thought and criticized too much. Conformity was still demanded. The nonconformist, the objector, in short, all who denied or refused to affirm society's dominant values, were still the enemies of society. To be sure, the proper ordering of this new society was no longer conceptualized in terms of Divine Grace; instead, it was viewed in terms of Public Health. Its internal enemies were thus seen as mad; and Institutional Psychiatry came into being, as had the Inquisition earlier, to protect the group from this threat.
The origins of the mental hospital system bear out these generalizations. 'The great confinement of the insane,' as Michel Foucault aptly calls it, began in the seventeenth century: 'A date can serve as a landmark: 1656, the decree that founded, in Paris, the Hopital General.' The decree founding this establishment, and others throughout France, was issued by the king, Louis XIII: 'We choose to be guardian and protector of said Hopital General as being of royal founding . . . which is to be totally exempt from the direction, visitation, and jurisdiction of the officers of the General Reform . . . and from all others to whom we forbid all knowledge and jurisdiction in any fashion or manner whatsoever.'" The Manufacture of Madness p13 Thomas Szasz
Now women are taking over the enterprise and morphing it into a Feminist tool, while perpetuating the inherent mendacity. Its a perfect fit to the gender--talk "therapy"--a lot of hot air expended to convince the client to change their attitude to match the views of the practitioner/institution. From the beginning, there have always been more women than men as clients. Now they're colluding with each other, while also striving to convince their male clients to morph their behavior into alignment with female values. Many of them now believe it is empowering their gender. But as Hoffer pointed out, they're just changing one obsession for another.
