"...constant lying is not aimed at making the people believe a lie, but

at ensuring that no one believes anything anymore.

A people that can no longer distinguish between truth and lies cannot distinguish between right and wrong... With such a people, you can do whatever you want."

Narrator: This is fascism.

The image is an X post by Mike Nellis (@MikeNellis

What the hell is going on in this country? How is that not fascism?" The post includes a verified badge.
