Trump says the cities are a war zone, yet this video shows he knows they're not. He's not shitting on a bunch minorities all trying to kill each other, his shitting on white liberals peacefully protesting.

I see this video as a tacis admission that they know they're lying about the state of inner cities. They know their actual enemies are the white people that might side with the minorities they're trying to oppress.

they know they’re lying

Here's the thing: these people aren't merely "religious"; they actually believe the Bronze-Age mythologies.

The only way to do that, and still function in the technological world around you, is to have an Orewllian-Doublespeak, Faith-based approach to reality.

In short, they habitually engage in belief without evidence

Once you practice that enough -- once evidence doesn't have a bearing on what's true -- then your own ability to know what is true and what simply feels good, is similarly eroded.

No, they don't know they're lying. They can't tell the difference between what their in-group culture Feels Good About, and what is objectively true.

This is an excellent explanation of why being slightly religious is still problematic. Once the sickness gets so bad they start hurting people, they act like their book doesn't say to hurt people, and they weren't encouraging the spiral into madness.

We need to view religion -- that is, faith, or in other words belief without evidence, the same way we view racism.

It is not really a personal matter. It is a profoundly uncivil way of dealing with others in a modern diverse society.

What was left of American Democracy is dismantled as we speak. Do the Epstein files really matter anymore? Nobody gives a shit. Trump has almost certainly sexually abused minors.

Nah it's just an example of "Republicans do something illegal then say something stupid to try and get people arguing about that instead."

Point is don't take the bait and pay any attention to asinine stuff like this.

Seriously, the party of projection calling the No Kings Rally the Hate America rally while they destroy our country and rub it in our faces. Yet, somehow there is still a solid chunk of America (at least 30%) that acts like they just can't decipher whatever Lassie is trying to tell them.

I would guess less than half of that 30% are just pretending because they also hate America/are still on board with this Butterfly revolution bullshit. They are ready to tear it all down and rebuild it because in their unhinged imagination, serving the leader of a patriarchal monarchy run by back stabbing narcissists incapable of admitting fault regardless of how absurd they sound, is a utopia. They either can't fathom a dystopian world under constant surveillance, and shitty AI not capable of replacing doctors, scientists, and engineers, or they haven't thought that far ahead, and should probably watch Idiocracy to get a glimpse of their future.

The other half probably understands most of what Lassie is saying on some level, but their denial is a coping mechanism. Either way, we can't wait around for that 15-30% of America to come to their senses pull their heads out of their asses. At this point, if somebody refuses to acknowledge reality, there's no point in arguing with a brick wall. All you can do is state reality, and refuse to let them rile you up or gaslight you.
