“Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.”

5 stars

We don't have to ignore facts anymore. We just change the definition of what a fact is.

Wouldn't it be neat if these words were stamped on the foreheads of public servants.

In times of universal deciept, telling the truth is revolutionary. Orwell.

Ignorance is rampant among the People and their representatives. It's the primary reason we have drifted so far from our founding principles -- most don't really know what they are.

Sadly, the memory hole works and facts, even if they don't entirely cease to exist, become so distorted in the perception of the bewildered herds that truth has little bearing on what people actually do. In effect facts become irrelevant.

In the case of the occupying statist theocracy infesting this land and / with its believing patrons, facts concerning inalienable rights, liberty, nature's law, and the nobility of the sentient being man, occupy no grey matter, heart representation or soul. Those facts remain — they are just unrecognizable.
