Hoaxes are generally very easy to spot. Especially the hoaxes that make allegations that reach into the political sphere that are then used by the inhabitants of that sphere for corrupt purposes. These hoaxes are very easy to spot because they are stated in such a way as to leave no doubt as to who the guilty party is and the motivations involved, or if the allegation is so bizarre that it just simply is not believable. Usually all you need is just one small snippet of the entire allegation, a Freudian slip of sorts, the desire to essentially force everyone to believe by shocking the conscious.
For instance, when Jussie Smollett made the claim that his attackers were wearing MAGA hats and made some comment about how this is MAGA country, I knew that he was lying. Another one occurred when a young black girl claimed that her dreadlocks were cut off by some white kids and that she was called racist names. I don’t remember what it was the girl said specifically that exposed her allegations as a hoax to me, but I turned to my wife after we watched that report and told her that the girl was lying, and sure enough it turned out that she was.
I didn’t believe the Kavanaugh hoax from the beginning because the mainstays of leftist political character assassination are accusations of racism, sexism or sexual predation. So, when those accusations came out, I turned off immediately. I would have been more likely to believe that he had robbed a bank when he was younger.
Last, but certainly not least is the Trump/Russia hoax which wasn’t just a hoax, but was a large scale disinformation campaign. However, let’s just look at the first allegation designed to shock the conscious. I can still remember the day when I heard the allegation in the Steele Dossier that Donald Trump had hired prostitutes to urinate on a bed that the Obama’s had slept in. I knew right then that the dossier was a hoax. The notion that Donald Trump would hire prostitutes to do something so petty and bizarre simply was not believable.
There is a pattern of behavior by leftists that is unmistakable and undeniable, and it plays out nearly the same way every time. Theirs is a religion of a big and controlling government, and all of the tactics they use are designed to move more political power in their direction. So, it is of utmost importance to recognize when they are implementing one of their tactics so that it can be resisted from the start.
