Truth Is an Endangered Concept on the Verge of Extermination

Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts

Finding and speaking the truth is increasingly difficult.  The Twitter Files released to Matt Taibbi by Elon Musk reveal a conspiracy between Big Tech and the establishment to control the explanations by suppressing the truth.  Taibbi concluded that the Twitter Files “show the FBI acting as doorman to a vast program of social media surveillance and censorship, encompassing agencies across the federal government from the State Department to the Pentagon to the CIA.”

The conspiracy against the truth involves the media and the large corporations.  Apple, Coca-Cola, Disney, and Walmart are among the corporations that are punishing Elon Musk for his efforts in behalf of free speech by cancelling their advertising on Twitter, now known as X.  The American Establishment that is doing everything it possibly can to destroy Donald Trump has also set its sights on Elon Musk, one of the richest and most talented people on earth.

With an establishment this confident in its power, what prospects do ordinary Americans have to withstand the elements that are eroding their comprehension of reality and their own lives.  Why do Americans purchase goods, services, and entertainment from corporations determined to keep them in the dark?  It is well known that Disney was sponsoring the propagation of critical race theory and transgenderism in public schools.  Disney even admits that it is losing shareholders’ money by making movies that confuse white kids about their identity and encourage miscegenation in order to replace “racist white people.”  Yet parents continue taking their kids to Disneyland, Disney World, Disney entertainments, and purchase Disney toys. It makes no sense.  It is frustrating watching white Americans support their own demise.

Something called Media Matters–financed by who?–created fake accounts and manipulated algorithms to create the fake news that X posted anti-semitic, pro-Nazi content next to advertising, thus associating advertisers with content that results in boycotts by Jewish and black lobbies.  Clearly, the intent of Media Matters was to damage X.  Can Elon Musk sue Media Matters for damages?  Probably not, because the Woke Democrat judges support suppressing the truth.  They use law as a weapon to get enemies, like Trump and Musk and me and you.

Most Americans do not yet understand that they live in a tyranny and have scant Constitutional and legal protection.  A rule of law is no longer our shield against arbitrary power.  In a blue city or state, for a white American to defend himself against black violence is like jumping from the frying pan into the fire.

The American media–indeed that of the Western world–is so compromised by security agencies and advertisers that it serves only as a Ministry of Propaganda.  Even the alternative Internet media is unreliable, because the same establishment that has corrupted the print and TV media creates websites to control the narratives that support the establishment’s agendas.

There are very few former insiders experienced in the way of Washington who are willing to tell the truth.  To turn on the establishment costs you your friends, your connections, your social life, and results in your demonization.  I provide an email so that readers can communicate with me, but I receive far more rude messages filled with foul language than I receive supporting words.

Those of us who have been around for awhile with eyes wide open can see the extent of the collapse of the culture and integrity.  The young don’t see it.  Not having been born into a free society, they don’t realize the loss.  The creeping tyranny into which each successive year of Americans are born is normal to them.

As Jesus said, “the truth shall make you free” (John 8:31-32).  Without truth there can be no justice.  There is barbarism, the rule of power. We have to be discouraged when we see throughout the West that the purpose of scholarship and education is to replace fact with make-believe.

Western civilization’s creation of accountable and representative government whose power is limited by a rule of law and honest courts, and its emphasis on public health, on education, freedom of inquiry and speech to advance science, understanding, and humanitarian reforms is disappearing from the curriculum.  Today students are indoctrinated into the view that Western civilization is  a racist exploiter.  As white people are considered to be “aversive racists,” they have to be replaced. 

The chosen solution is for mass immigration, “diversity” and “multiculturalism” to produce miscegenation.  Whites are simply bred out of existence.  This program requires whites to be shorn of confidence and filled with guilt, a process that has been well underway for some time.  The truth of the matter is that American education has separated youth from their culture and left them deracinated.

We have reached the point in our demise where truth is dismissed as “offensive,” “misinformation,”  “racist,”  “anti-semitic,”  “conspiracy theory,” and even an “act of terrorism.”  The war on truth is the most dangerous war of all.
