Dear Friends,
It seems to me, throughout human history, the ultimate sin, discreditor and the greatest disgrace, was to be a hypocrite, now it is an honor. Hypocrisy is so common among the elite we don’t even notice it. Like when a sanctuary city that demands other states tolerate a tsunami of illegals… gets a single planeload of illegals, then calls in the national guard to oust them. That is hypocrisy writ large, yet is ignored by the media, lauded by the administrative state and defended by their sycophants. In the past, someone who said one thing and did another, like demand others be disarmed in the face of abject crime, while standing behind an army of personal guards, arbitrary rule and the secret state police, the FBI, would be called a scoundrel. Hypocrisy is not at all discrediting today… so why isn’t everyone?
The fact is, hypocrisy is flowing from our leaders to us. Confucius said people follow their leaders into virtue or vice, and ours are leading us into hypocrisy. A virtue today. People follow everything their leaders do. If the leaders wear their hair in a certain way, it’s not long before everyone wears their hair that way. Remember Sara Palin’s shooting glasses? All the women wore them for awhile after she sported them at the Republican convention. We follow our leaders in more than mere fashion. We follow them in attitude, ideas and actions. The cultural elite know this and exploit it to hobble our kids with gang music, a thug’s work ethic, and gang attitude. That’s why its a good thing, that hypocrisy is no longer a bad thing, since we follow our leaders and therefore will soon be raging hypocrites.
The open and obvious hypocrisy of the elite demanding conservative states take on unlimited illegals, with the intent to change the demographics of those states more to the liking of the elite, then freaking out when even a single busload of illegals enters their states, is just the tip of the iceberg of the elite’s hypocrisy today. They even openly call illegals “trash” and get the national guards to take them out! Defunding the police, emptying the prisons most violent onto the streets, refusing to prosecute violent offenses, while focusing on political thought crimes, and all the while disarming the populace, is easy to do from behind a parapet topped wall, swarming with armed guards. If any illegals get within a hundred yards, a sniper can take them out… like the garbage.
Why was hypocrisy considered so bad… back in the dark ages? Well, back then people thought that lies were bad too, and hypocrisy is the most heinous form of lying. It is saying one thing and doing another. No well functioning society can work like that. For a society to function, there must be trust. Trust of the government, the marketplace and each other. Lacking that trust government becomes oppressive, the market becomes exploitative and everyone is at war with everyone else. That was back then though, with the surveillance state, mind control through the states monopoly on education and censorship, coupled with the modern innovation of CBDCs, our elite should be able to buck history, nature and reality. Hypocrisy was bad back then, because it destroys everything, today The Science says it doesn’t.
Hypocrisy used to be a bad thing, but our elite have progressed, evolved or perverted that definition. Now hypocrisy is the standard, honesty, doing as you say and a man’s handshake being his bond, are archaic throwbacks to an ignorant age. Hypocrisy is the new standard set by the elite. Expect others to follow. Soon everyone will be a glorious hypocrite. Those who hold out will be crushed by the hypocrisy of those that don’t. The Science will intercede so that our economy can thrive, even though no one can be trusted, everyone will do the opposite of what they say, and the biggest thieves will call themselves honest. Families will prosper, once husbands and wives can’t be trusted to go to the store, without having a fling. Our new standard will serve us well… the NPCs are sure of it.
Sincerely,
John Pepin
