Madness in an Empire of Lies

Conspiracies are strange things. On one level, they're simple. On another, they're complex. In its essence, a conspiracy is merely two or more people coming together for the purpose of defrauding others. Any deceptive plan based on lies and half truths is a conspiracy. However, conspiracies have a tendency to hook up with other conspiracies. When two convenient lies align to the advantage of both conspiring parties, we get connections. These beget further connections, and pretty soon, there's a network of conspiracies.

When this happens, various interested parties are only in charge of a fraction of the total lie. No single person knows the totality of the conspiracy. They only know their own lies. The other lies are convenient connections that may be viewed as true.

Falsely assuming some convenient lie to be true will often make it easier to keep up one's own lies, so there's a tendency for conspirators to genuinely believe much of the overall narrative. They know that their part is a lie, but comfort themselves in the false belief that the overall narrative is for the better of everyone.

This leads to a self propelling narrative where conspirators promote the lies of others. Everyone is an expert, especially in things they know little about.

Those who are duped into the overall narrative are often the loudest promoters of the lies. Victims become promoters of the narrative in the false belief that the unease they feel will go away if only a sufficiently large number of people go along with it. Anyone pointing out some inconvenient truth is viewed as a threat. Truth tellers are avoided and demonized.

This is why it's so hard to figure out who benefits from the lies that circulate in times of  universal deceit. There's no single beneficiary, and victims are often as passionate about the overall narrative as the ones who benefit.

No-one is in a position of control. Not even the highest political office is fully informed about the narrative. Hence, we get bizarre displays of madness in people like Nancy Pelosi, a woman who has dedicated her life to government power and greed. Of all people, she should know that there's nothing true in anything coming from government. However, she behaves as if she's taken the vaccine.

People who have dedicated their lives to deceit and power often become excessively paranoid towards the end of their lives. They know from their own actions that there's no limit to how low people will go in order to dethrone them. No-one can be trusted, and there's nothing to look forward to. There's either no afterlife at all, or there's hell. There's no glory. Nothing of lasting value was achieved. Death becomes a truly frightening spectre.

This would explain Pelosi's recent rant about science being the solution to everything. It would also explain her insistence on mandatory mask wearing. Having turned her back to God, Pelosi has found religion in science. Pelosi talks of science in the same way that Christian zealots talk of Jesus. Whatever ails her, science is the answer, and nothing says science quite like the vaccine.

But the vaccine isn't the answer to anything, and Pelosi is likely to know this by now. Hence, her descent into madness.
