The Big Lies We Cannot Question

The Big Lie

• The biggest lie allegedly spread by Republicans is that the 2020 election was illegitimate.
• There are diverse opinions within the ranks of Republicans. Some think it was a stolen election; others don't.
• No such dissent exists among Democrats over some of the biggest lies ever told.
• The lies Democrats unanimously affirm are treated as background facts and become the premises upon which reports are prepared, decisions are made, debates are framed, and policies are imposed.

The big lie of woke ideology is that cultural norms and expectations don't matter or do more harm than good

• The most important goals for a society should be to achieve equality of outcome across every institution and at every level, and to avoid offending anyone
• This is impossible

Norms exist for a reason. Reluctance to precipitously discard them is not bigotry, it's sanity.

• When gays got the right to marry, many of us said live and let live.
• But the sexually correct expectations of woke society have progressed well beyond accepting gay marriage, to the point where we cannot look at someone as obviously performative as Sam Brinton representing our nation, and say "that's weird and inappropriate."

The biggest lie, then, is to suggest that Republicans are spreading lies and misinformation, and Democrats are not

• Partisan journalists claim to be concerned about "mass lying," but their ideological bias prevents them from questioning the lies they believe or considering the truth in things they don't believe.
• As a result, the epidemic of misinformation they help spread is becoming critical and increasingly dangerous
