Fighting Vicious Fiction

 AMERICA'S CONSERVATIVE COMMUNITY, the republicans, the evangelical Christian Trumpers, are all now beginning , incredibly enough, foster the fiction that the violent attack and ransacking of the Capitol January 6 wsa actually a regular, normal tour group, out sight seeing. That, rather than the violent Trump insurrectionist mob we know to be the truth. Of course, thsi should hardly be surprising, considering these are the same people who swear that the election was stolen from Trump. They dwell in fantasy land, big time. The good citizens who elected Joe Biden must remain united to defeat and destroy the Trump movement's propaganda machine, obviously. It isn't going gently into that goodnight. The Trump movement, like similar movements before, strikingly like the Hitler movement, is a shimmering mirage, a virtual cascade of lies and fabricated narratives ; in order to embrace Trump, one must embrace massive falsehood. This is what make the Trump movement so dangerous, such a dire threat to social stability; once any movement is freed from constraint to verified reality and truth any fabrication is possible, even likely, with potentially disastrous consequences. The proof of this is obvious, and quite recent, in fact, present. We have just recently witnessed at least seventy million Americans enthusiastically accept and embrace an outrageous lie by a notoriously dishonest demagogue, Evidently, most indeed nearly all of the original believers still believe, remarkably. They've had plenty of time to calm down and come to their senses, but have chosen not to.No trace of election fraud has been found for the 2020 election, and there has time to find it. non ever will be, because it does not exist. An interestingly sociological question is: how much longer will the election fraud sycophants cling to their delusion? The rest of their lives? When the last one dies, in, say, another sixty or seventy years, will there be a small memorial service? Ti think, because of a single lie oft repeated by a single demagogue leader, and repeated by millions of followers, much turmoil has done much damage to already damaged civil discourse in America, clearly demonstrating what catastrophic consequences of horrible political leadership and followship are possible. The deranged Trumpers must not be allowed to impose their twisted reality on future historical writing, and they wont' be. The election of 2020 was not stolen, and the Capitol insurrection of January 6, 2021 was not merely an ordinary tour group out sight seeing.
