“This constant lying is not aimed at making the people believe a lie, but at ensuring that no one believes anything anymore. A people that can no longer distinguish between truth and lies cannot distinguish between right and wrong. And such a people, deprived of the power to think and judge, is, without knowing and willing it, completely subjected to the rule of lies.”
A paraphrasing of the anti-authoritarian statements and ideals of Hannah Arendt.
“The result of a consistent and total substitution of lies for factual truth is not that the lie will now be accepted as truth, and truth be defamed as lie, but that the sense by which we take our bearings in the real world… is being destroyed.”
Hannah Arendt
Some people want to call the very foundations of validity in question. They do this, in my opinion, solely out of a mis-guided sense of the importance of amusing themselves.
The point these liars seem to be missing is that it isn’t funny if they are the only ones laughing.
