“The Ministry of Peace concerns itself with war, the Ministry of Truth with lies, the Ministry of Love with torture and the Ministry of Plenty with starvation. These contradictions are not accidental, nor do they result from ordinary hypocrisy: they are deliberate exercises in doublethink”
George Orwell, 1984
Yes, the spectre of hypocrisy rears its head often, while all along many of the perpetrators of such contradiction claim a superior, or more accurately, a ‘moral’ high ground in order to gain acceptance from all sides. This is the essence of attempted scrutiny at the expense of the truth, and is prevalent throughout the realm of not only much of the alternative media, but also many of those claiming the ‘libertarian’ position. This attitude does little more than convolute any real facts of the argument, and leads to confusion about, or even acceptance of, false narratives. Whether intentional or not, it is a very deceptive and dangerous practice.
