The Epstein List?

[jc456]

I have always been unsure whether Trump knows he is lying, or suffers from such a powerful narcissistic derangement that he is incapable of understanding his lies are lies.

I have to accept that some, unfortunately, just can't handle the truth.

not sure what lies you think he's told. I still await one from any of you all?

Yeah, I've been batting that one around for ten years now. I just asked chat GPT if there is a term for a person who actually, seriously believes a lie the minute they say it.

Yes, there are a few psychological concepts and informal terms that describe someone who quickly comes to believe their own lie, often right after telling it. While there’s no single, universally agreed-upon word for this exact behavior, here are the most relevant terms:

Yes, there are a few psychological concepts and informal terms that describe someone who quickly comes to believe their own lie, often right after telling it. While there’s no single, universally agreed-upon word for this exact behavior, here are the most relevant terms:

1. Confabulation
This is a psychological term where a person unintentionally fabricates or distorts memories, and fully believes them to be true. It’s often used in clinical settings (e.g., dementia, brain injury), but can loosely apply to people who deceive themselves.

2. Pathological Liar (or Pseudologia Fantastica)
This refers to someone who lies habitually and often believes their own lies. Over time, they blur the line between fact and fiction in their own mind.

3. Self-Deception
This is a broader term where a person convinces themselves something false is true, sometimes immediately after saying it. It may be a defense mechanism or unconscious coping strategy.

4. Delusional Lying
In some cases, a person may tell a lie and instantly internalize it as truth, bordering on delusion. This can sometimes be associated with certain personality disorders (e.g., narcissistic or borderline).

5. Gaslighting (turned inward)
While gaslighting usually refers to manipulating others into questioning reality, some people do it to themselves—creating falsehoods they then accept as true to preserve a self-image.

Top ten ridiculous. They had decades to spew Leftist hogwash. Now you say the media is not leftist? I quit 95% in 09' then the rest + radio in 2020. It was all LW then. TV now is all LGBTQ and Black pandering. Netflix going all Leftist. Pound sand silly.

You think it's okay for the President to have lefty media shows cancelled? This is horse shit. And defunding NPR? Nazi shit.

 

[jc456]

This is connected to Trump suing Paramount. This is the government getting liberals who would speak against them cancelled. This is a sad day bro. I know you love it but you'd love Putin if he was a Republican too so....

See how the media isn't really liberal? Colbert might be and viewers might be but the bosses sensor Colbert. Wow! Who's next Kimmel? I guess they'll just do podcasts.

TV is dying anyways.

it is not, it is because the TDS rant by the host caused his own demise.

well first, post one of his supposed lies.

You can't talk about the Fuhrer?

He died in South America years ago, I'm still surprised today that fks like you don't know that yet.

what show did he cancel?

 

[schmidlap]

There have been liars lying about Trump since he announced he was running to be president.

Attempted diversion noted.

Thanks for your admission of what you do.

If they have all eluded you, you have clearly developed an immunity.

What, I suppose, is more concerning, is the capacity to readily abandon critical thinking, and embrace his blatant falsehoods - such as his winning the 2020 election in a landslide, or Black immigrants eating pet cats and dogs in Ohio.

you don't know what critical thinking is, there's that.

Now that you mention that: I'm essentially anti-ideology in general (political, religious, whatever), because I think it (among other things) robs a person of their fundamental human curiosity by providing all the answers. It creates and nurtures intellectual myopia.

But yeah, MAGA adds to it by, as you put it, embracing blatant falsehoods and bizarre conspiracy theories. I don't know how to deal with ravings that are taken as fact but are simply nonsensical. And they top it off with that weird, condescending I-know-something-you-don't-know smile on their face.

Some folks like to feel they are privy to special knowledge (that, invariably, fits their ideological agenda.)

They don't need no stinkin' empirical data or logic.

A scientific consensus is irresistible for them to harangue against if it is at odds with their dogma.

Meh...... seen this on both sides of the street.

Scientific consensus is great if those in the group are willing to debate other views. Unfortunately that process has been politicized in some cases.

Opinions that cannot be supported with logic, reason, experience, or verifiable facts are not worth having.

Scientific opinion that cannot be scrutinized or challenged is not scientific at all but is dogma.

Respecting the self-critical, empirical-data-based consensus of the world's climatologists, every climatological body on earth, as well as virtually every nation, is not ideological.

I would much prefer humankind being able to spew industrial waste gases into the heavens with impunity, suffering no consequences, but that is clearly not the case.

I didn't mention anything about ideology.

That's not true. IPCC has been totally politicized and extremely biased.

In several cases publishing counter views,data, opinions for peer review has been rejected.

The other is COVID.
