The "Colonel Kurtz Horror" Of Trump Cult's Mendacious Denial And The Epistemological Collapse That Made Total Denial Possible

 

The more psychologically deranged people are, the less insight they have - which is to say, the less likely they are to realize they're deranged. 

The situation is analogous to the Dunning-Kruger Hypothesis which distills to this kernel: "Stupid people are too stupid to know they're stupid." 

And, to be "fair and balanced," blind Christian faith exacerbates the stupidity. https://newsfrombarbaria.blogspot.com/2020/07/how-self-taught-philosopher.html

Trump's refusal -- and the refusal of his suck-ups -- to acknowledge that Agent Orange was soundly thumped by Biden's vote total in the Electoral College, and that Shitstorm got trounced by Biden's popular vote total, are manifestations of lunatic denial that strike sane people like an un-potty-trained-74-year-old in the house. 

It should be obvious that you don't foul the nation's nest with an encompassing matrix of falsehood - of shit.

But Trump -- in addition to having no moral compass, has no "normalcy compass."

Here is how these sorry souls got lost:

"There are two ways of lying, as there are two ways of deceiving customers. If the scale registers 15 ounces, you can say: 'It's a pound.' Your lie will remain relative to an invariable measure of the true. If customers check it, they can see that they are being robbed, and you know by how much you are robbing them: a truth remains as a judge between you. But if the demon induces you to tamper with the scale itself, it is the criterion of the true which is denatured, there is no longer any possible control. And little by little you will forget that you are cheating." Denis de Rougemont

Not only have they forgotten they're lying; in the depths of their derangement they think they're the only people in possession of The Truth.

This shared delusional system is as "beyond bizarre" as QAnon:

During my 1950s' childhood, any weirdo-relative living in an in-law apartment would have become a candidate for "insane asylum committal" as soon as s/he started spewing the kind of lunatic ideation that consumes Trump Cult, a coven of crazies who subscribe to QAnon, a new secular religion with its own messiah (i.e., Donald Trump), and its own resurrection (i.e., John Kennedy Jr. is not dead). 

And that's just the beginning.

Tom Hanks, Oprah Winfrey and Hillary Clinton are members of a vast Hollywood (and Democratic Party) cabal who operate a sprawling sex slave trade that also kills children so they can cannibalize them in Satanic blood rituals.
