Land of Illusion
From our friend across the Pond Daniel Jupp
Lots of gloating from fools in the Fake Right camps of the Alt Media directed Nazis and the MSM directed RINOs and Tories.
Cheering the triumph of the last light of freedom being nearly extinguished because Trump isn’t polite enough or because ‘da Joos’.
The truth is these people aren’t rightwing.
The polite, respectable, We Told You to Talk Nicely and Do Nothing ones have been owned by the other side for 80 years.
The rabid, Jew hating, isolationist What About the Epstein Files ones have always been a collection of grifters, crooks and nutjobs.
So what happened, in polite language?
The very, very simple truth is that the most successful rightwing term in living memory meant nothing.
And it meant nothing because sanity did not have control of the narrative.
Stalin said that it doesn’t matter who wins the votes, it matters who controls the counting of the votes.
Well there is a similar one here-it doesn’t matter what objective reality is, it matters who controls the perception of reality.
Objectively, the US economy is doing very well under Trump, objectively, in the actual real world, he has improved the US in countless ways in the second term. Objectively, factually the Iran intervention was minimal, sensible and massively to the benefit of the safety and security of the US. Objectively, he’s defended the borders, increased safety, increased prosperity, secured energy, secured resources, out thought and out fought China, on and on.
It doesn’t matter.
The majority of people are no longer able to independently access the reality they live in.
They are mediated non-thinkers, media directed drones who never touch reality. There is always a screen or an article or a newspaper or a talking head between them and reality, which they listen to more than reality itself.
2020 was stolen and mainstream media had the power to just tell everyone it was not. But enough people doubted and alternative media came into being. Through the Biden term the lies kept coming, but people had another voice to listen to. For the brief period that alternative media was telling the truth and opposing mainstream media, the non thinkers had a chance to act on the basis of truth. Someone was telling them true things, and that was enough.
Enough to win 2024.
So what did the malign do in response? They didn’t change. They didn’t make themselves better. They got more insane and more evil. They told more lies. They did even worse things.
Surely this would seal Trump’s lasting victory?
No.
Because at the same time they purchased alternative media. They purchased Carlson. They purchased every one of the Epstein Files lunatics. They purchased every one of the Iran War isolationist lunatics. They realised that MSM TDS wasn’t enough.
So they paid for alternative media TDS as well.
Facts don’t matter. Reality doesn’t matter. Most people can’t independently access either of them and have no tether of logic or morality or tradition. All they know is what they are told to know.
It wasn’t that the followers of Alt Media were smarter. It’s that for a brief time they were listening to the truth, and followed it because they mistook the source as a truth teller.
When the same source told them Da Joos control Trump or Trump rapes kids, they believed that too.
Just as programmed, just as gullible, just as stupid as those mentally enslaved by mainstream media.
Shall I tell you who the Right actually are, when they aren’t RINOs and they aren’t Nazis?
They are the minority who judge by an actual reality that most people can no longer access. They are the ones who can decide for themselves, based on a true sight of what is happening. They are the undirected, the not controlled, the people possesed of a memory of what reality is.
But today success isn’t enough. Doing good isn’t enough. The other side being objectively evil and vile and obviously so isn’t enough.
It doesn’t matter. The real world doesn’t matter.
You have to control the narrative ABOUT the world. You have to control the mediated comment and the media presentation more than evil and lies do. That’s more important than what you actually have done in reality.
You must master the illusion, the screen, the interface, the data stream ….because that’s where most voters live, and their thoughts aren’t thoughts but controlled Pavlovian responses to what the mediated world tells them.
Those who live in reality must understand that telling people what reality is doesn’t work. You have to either end or control the world of illusions and only then can the blind and the dumb be led by truth instead of lies.
In simpler terms, some people escaped MSM control, so alternative media figures were used to restore the Reign of Lies instead.
We have to be honest with ourselves about how few people have any agency or understanding or ability to defy this.

Basic problem seems to be that too many people who otherwise would have voted Republican either were too lazy to do so, or had convinced themselves that gas and food still cost too much, and also that the Iran war was "unnecessary." A lie repeated often enough...

Indeed. And
"A lie can travel around the world and back again while the truth is lacing up its boots." as Mark Twain observed, so the lie usually wins if the public is too lazy or ignorant to examine the matter. Democratic systems only work with an informed and skeptical citizenry. Once the People stop thinking it inevitably deteriorates into a tyranny of special interests, and then into a dictatorship, as Plato observed. We are reaching that phase right now.
