Evidence no longer changes minds, because some beliefs are trained to be immune to proof. When ideology replaces curiosity, facts become enemies. Data is not examined but rejected, Inwould say even feared. Reality itself is framed as a threat, and evidence is dismissed not because it is false, but because it destabilizes a carefully protected worldview.

This is nothing new. Truth sounds like hate to those who hate the truth. Evil hates the truth, always has, always will.

It’s not a division between good and evil …. It’s an inversion of the two.

She almost gets it. Leftists are just evil NPCs who parrot their cult tenets.

@MelanieLatest Where can I see the whole interview?

@MelanieLatest

@stevepring @MelanieLatest Thank you!

@cusickm77 @stevepring @MelanieLatest 🙏

I cannot believe this is the reality we have to deal with now

excellent explanation for so much of what we see and hear.

@MelanieLatest “Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” (Isaiah 5:20)

Leftards are hopeless. What the lady is saying is 💯🎯

Yuri Bezmenov told us how to destroy a society from within. We’re at the, “…where reason itself is repudiated…” stage.

This feels very true at the moment. I complained about a man in the female changing room – and I’m the ‘bad guy’. Too loud, wrong tone, ‘bad words’ (like calling him gentleman instead of lady). Upside-down world.

Yes, of course. For a long time now, censorship through abuse has been government policy. Disagree with a woman and it is a hate crime called misogyny. Disagree with a muslim and it is a hate crime called islamaphobia. Disagree with a black person and you're racist. Rather than enter into a debate, which they know they would lose, the loony lefties demand obedience and compliance through ending freedom of speech for their opponents through ridiculing 'logic', 'reason' - calling it 'mansplaining' or worse.

The Age of Unreason is upon us. 👇

This captures why American progressives are sympathetic to fraudsters like MN Gov. Walz. They just see the "goodness" in widespread benefits. Why they are so easily manipulated.

And religion is simply the expression of Gods logos - combined with his ethereal creation through which his love and beauty is expressed. It is both reason and ethereal. The reformation omitted all the important ethereal and beautiful parts necessary for religious completion.

Reject anything that isn’t love, truth, and honesty. •

And this 'Age of Unreason' & frenzied, totalitarian group think emotionalism just happens coincide with the mass entry (and takeover) of many spheres by women. Women are driving this. Women are totalitarian, hysterical herd creatures. Once ungoverned by men, madness ensues.

Melanie Phillips: Truth has become a right-wing concept. “You cannot say it, because if you say it, you are considered right-wing, and to be right-wing is to be in league with the forces of evil. It is a Manichean division between ideologies of one kind or another and those who don't subscribe to those ideologies, and the ideologies brook no dissent, because they represent in the minds of people who promote them, they represent goodness, brotherhood of man, progress, reason, education, and anyone who opposes them is against all good things. So they are not just wrong, they're not people to be argued with, they're people to be removed and silenced, because otherwise you're against all good things. So it's that division between good and evil. And unfortunately, if you stand up against an ideology like, I don't know, so-called anti-racism, [Critical Race Theory] which basically says all white people are bad, …or you stand up and say a woman is defined by her biology, [against Gender Theory, Patriarchy Theory, Queer Theory] you're against transgender. [Erasing Transgender] So as you know, there's no discussion, you are cancelled, you are removed, you have to be silenced. This dissent cannot be permitted. So we're in what a thinker of a previous age called cultural totalitarianism. No alternative is to be permitted. Now, first of all, that is an assault on individual freedom, freedom of expression and freedom, but it's also a complete repudiation of reason. Because if you say there is nothing that you can say that can dissent from my ideology, and you say you're bringing evidence to oppose me, well, that cannot be the case. If you're denying evidence and reality and thinking and engagement with an idea, then you're denying reason itself. And so the irony is that in an age of supposed reason, we're so rational that we've dispensed with religion. Only idiots have any kind of religious sense, because it's not based on reason, that's the thinking. So we're so rational, we've got rid of religion, and yet we are repudiating rationality completely. This is something that doesn't quite add up. So I would say that we are in a new age of unreason. That's what we're in, an age of unreason, that's what we've unleashed. And it's an irony, because we've done it under the aegis of being rational. But in getting rid of religion, we have unleashed an age of unreason. And what follows from that is the erosion of freedom, freedom to think, freedom to speak, freedom to act, and a complete confusion about where the limit should be drawn between what I want and what others need.”

"If you want to make a conservative mad, lie to him... if you want to make a liberal mad, tell them the truth." Rush Limbaugh

Orwell was a visionary genius.

The Left is entirely driven by Ideologies, those that voted Labour in to office didn't know because MSM like BBC/ITV/Sky/C4 are all captured and spin the nonsense Gender/CRT/NetZero/OpenBorders/Islamism/WEF/UN as "good" when in fact all of it is destroying our economy/society.

@StoicSkeptic And it's in large part caused by academics with an unconscious bias in the firm of selective blindness to the fact they get paid by the state. The more powerful the state, the more money and security. Filtered perception can easily make a smart person stupid.

very well said truth ✨💫

@sassyXsouthern You mean like the nuclear truth that Trump raped little girls and MAGA keeps pretending he didn’t?

The far left are in charge of most of major levers of power in UK.

@YveYveYve10 Yes. Sadly, the truth has become a poison that will turn around and destroy you if you dare speak the truth. You are gaslighted. You are cancelled. You are threatened. You are accused

The only acceptable opinion, expressed or not, was first Lenin's, then the Communist Party's...then Stalin's alone. If you deviated, there was a high likelihood of a bullet to the back of the head. Today, the Dems cancel you, imprison you, and maybe try a more final solution.

Wow. This is fantastic.

I don't think its a strange as you may think it is. What we actually are seeing is a new religion forming. Even if it is secular - it still has all the normal component of a religion. If you strip “religion” down to its functional components rather than its supernatural claims, what you’re describing lines up almost perfectly. Religions emerge when a society needs shared meaning, moral coordination, authority, and a way to resolve uncertainty about the future. They provide an explanatory frame for why things are the way they are, a set of values that feel non-negotiable, rituals that reinforce belonging, and institutions that mediate truth and legitimacy. A secular religion doesn’t need gods. It needs axioms. It needs a story about progress, danger, salvation, and sin. It needs priesthoods (experts, credentialed authorities), scriptures (white papers, “the science,” policy frameworks), heresies (misinformation, disallowed questions), and rituals (public declarations, symbolic compliance, repeated affirmations). Even excommunication still exists, just under different names. The reason it feels uncanny is because modern culture insists it has outgrown religion. So when the same psychological and social machinery reappears, people mislabel it as “politics,” “culture,” or “technology.” But those are just the surfaces. The underlying function is identical: collective meaning under uncertainty. I think this also explains why it spreads so fast. Traditional religions used to answer existential questions about death, purpose, and order. In a hyper-complex world with opaque systems, algorithmic power, and accelerating change, people need something that tells them who to trust, what is good, what is dangerous, and where moral authority lives. A secular religion fills that gap without requiring metaphysics. The risk, as with all religions, isn’t that it exists. The risk is when its doctrines become unfalsifiable, when moral certainty replaces truth-seeking, and when dissent becomes moral failure rather than intellectual disagreement. That’s usually the moment when a belief system stops being a coordinating framework and starts becoming a control structure. The First Amendment assumes a very specific ontology: religion is something recognizable. It has churches, clergy, doctrines, scriptures, and explicit metaphysical claims. The state is barred from endorsing or enforcing those. But it says nothing about belief systems that perform the same role while denying they are religious. If a belief system declares itself “secular,” “scientific,” or “policy-based,” it can permeate government and institutions without ever triggering Establishment Clause scrutiny, even if it functions identically to a religion. The courts don’t test for function. They test for form. That’s the critical mismatch.

Evil has always gone against everything GOOD & TRUTHFUL……IF You Believe in JESUS CHRIST…..TRUTH HIMSELF……then Stand Strong and Fight Always For TRUTH……NO MATTER WHAT+++! We can NEVER LET EVIL TAKE OVER+++!

@lauren_vasiliou This toxic woke socialism is a symptom of mental illness.

God blesses his most retarded warriors

Truth is only forbidden if we stop speaking it. So be bold and brave and scream the truth.
