How Will This Play In Peoria?

Remember that they monitor all social media and comments to msm. We are a giant focus group, with instant results, a Peoria that allows them to see how their bs is playing immediately, and also allows them to finetune it quickly in response.

But three weeks ago they did a 180 on messaging about Biden. They went from "He's as sharp as a tack, the smartest guy in the room" to "Omigod, we suddenly realize that his brain is gone." Why would those who spent 4 years telling gaslighting the public, with ridicule and attacks on those who rejected their messaging, suddenly and uniformly completely reverse themselves?

This was followed last Saturday by an assassination attempt on Trump which was accompanied by denial, obfuscation, and a tsunami of contradictory and inflammatory leaks designed to enrage the public. The different teams of Americans have all been fed conspiracy theories to latch onto and argue about. Why?

I think it’s a giant lab experiment, to see how far they can go with their crazy-making.

Like mad scientist Harry Harlow, continually getting grants to see how badly he could beat baby monkeys before they gave up their attachments, our overlords are messing with our heads to see how easy it is to get the average citizen to do a 180 of their beliefs, AND to not even notice or care.

So, as they say, the beatings will continue until the experimenters have found a limit.

The Overton Window In Play

"The Overton window is the range of policies politically acceptable to the mainstream population at a given time. It is also known as the window of discourse."

The media threw a brick into the Overton window last Thursday......but not really.

The "window of discourse", or the "national conversation", is under firm control.

Number one: You can argue that Biden is sharp as a tack and is good for another four years, OR you can argue that he is a Gone Man and needs to be removed from the ticket.

You can NOT ask how he is not fit for the ticket but is totally fit to run the country.

That is not part of the national discourse.

Number two: If you accept that Joe Must Go, you can speculate to your little heart's desire about whom our overlords will replace him with, (heavy on obscure Democrat governors), but you can NOT point out that a scion of a beloved Dem family is already running, and would most likely win against the Scary Orange Man, in a landslide. An unrigged landslide, to boot.

That is Unapproved Speech, and is not part of the Overton Window.

You would think that even the dullest of Dems could come up with this idea on their own, but you would be wrong.

They are sticking to the approved narratives.
