What is Menticide - 10 Signs you are infected - 12 Step Recovery Program: “Menticide is an old crime against the human mind and spirit but systematized anew. It is an organized system...

ACP45 Loc: Rhode Island

“Menticide is an old crime against the human mind and spirit but systematized anew. It is an organized system of psychological intervention and judicial perversion through which a powerful dictator can imprint his own opportunistic thoughts upon the minds of those he plans to use and destroy.”

If you are a victim of menticide, you don’t know it. That’s the first sign.

Here are nine more signs you can use to identify whether you’re suffering from this reversible condition:
1) You watch television.
2) You read newspapers and magazines.
3) You listen to the radio.
4) You absorb social media immersion campaigns.
5) You follow popular culture.
6) You support the current thing.
7) You know with dogmatic certainty you’re right about everything you believe—even though you’ve never examined those beliefs and didn’t come up with them through your own inquisitive research, critical thinking, and rigorous analysis.
8) You repeat thought-terminating clichés like Trust The Science™ to mollify your cognitive dissonance. As part of this kamikaze leap of faith, you trust everything you shouldn’t trust, including:
a) Governments with chronic histories of lying to, propagandizing, terrorizing, experimenting on, surveilling, censoring, torturing, interning, and murdering its own citizens.
b) Corporations continually found guilty of homicide, harm, fraud, corruption, unethical practices, bribery, coercion, intimidation, addiction-inflicting, and study-rigging.
c) Organizations, regulatory agencies, tyrants, politicians, self-aggrandizing “experts”, c*********d scientists, behavioral psychologists, public-opinion engineers, smear merchants, ghostwriters, Big Tech gatekeepers, influencers, pushers, fact-chokers, and other colluders enlisted to control the narrative to protect the power and profits of (a) and (b).
9) You distrust everyone the liars tell you to distrust, namely those disproving their lies, such as:
a) Ethical scientists, physicians, whistleblowers, data analysts, and other t***h-tellers exposing corruption, tyranny, human rights abuses, injury, and democide.
b) Primary sources and clear-eyed thinkers unpolluted by conflicts of interest such as independent journalists, on-the-ground reporters, dissident writers, dazzlingly keen-witted analysts, and real human beings who are documenting the objective reality being bowdlerized by legacy sources.
c) Family, friends, and other caring people who are trying to rescue you from the cult you’ve been inculcated into
