Toevallig las ik vanochtend een ijzersterke column van Jon Rappoport die dit mechanisme als volgt beschrijft:
Under a big lie, the truth is the great shocker. I’ve been writing about one of these truths for years, and I always measure the reaction or lack of reaction.
I’m talking about the mass of mainstream evidence that, in the United States, every year, the medical system kills 225,000 people. This is a conservative assessment.
I point out that the death toll, when extrapolated to a decade, is 2.25 million Americans.
When I’ve presented these figures to mainstream reporters, doctors, scientists, some independent reporters, the response is:
Nothing.
Whether I’ve communicated through writing or in person, it’s as if I haven’t said anything at all.
There is a blank space, a hiatus, a fracture in time.
It’s as if I’ve been remarking on the weather…and who cares about the weather.
It’s quite stunning.
But of course, there is a split-second reaction: “No, that couldn’t be true.”
There are several supporting “reasons” for assuming the medically caused death-numbers couldn’t be true, and these reasons also flicker for a moment on the screen of the mind:
“If that were true, I would have heard about it.”
“If those figures were true, everything I’ve heard about doctors helping people, saving people, giving them the best care…I’d have to rethink all that.”
“No group could be killing that many people.”
I would call those and other similar “reasons” normal and average reactions.
Beyond them, there is something else going on. The person on the receiving end of the data is doing a scan, so to speak. A scan of…
His basic conception of reality.
This inner conception, structure, landscape encompasses many subjects and areas.
It offers great stability, on a subconscious level.
And this structure is suddenly threatened. All of it.
And that must never happen.
Therefore, on a conscious level, the person appears to notice nothing. There is no visible reaction.
Imagine something like this: a landscape composed of tall buildings, offices, government centers, corporate headquarters, media broadcasts beaming out into streets, mountains of conventional data about politics, economics, social conditions—all this and more sitting in the subconscious of a person. And then…
There is an intrusion. A single disruptive intrusion. A fact that shakes the whole structure in the mind, like an earthquake.
Alarms go off. “Reject that fact! Reject it! It’s false! It has to be false! Maintain stability!”
“Stability being restored. The structure is intact. Standards are being rebooted. Normality is being reasserted. Resume standard operations.”
The big truth is neutralized.

Ditzelfde mechanisme bemerk ik ook als ik me kennelijk drukker maak om wat christenen wordt aangedaan dan christenen zelf of wat vrouwen wordt aangedaan dan vrouwen zelf. Ik ben hier de grootste 'christen' alsn niet-christen en 'feminist' als man! Ik geef echter om MENSEN en wijs elke vorm van onrecht tegen mensen af. Het voordeel is dat ik me niet hoef in te houden, omdat ik geen onderdeel uitmaak van een dwingend collectief. Jon Rappoport nogmaals:
People tend to think their own power is either a delusion or some sort of abstraction that’s never really EXPERIENCED. So when the subject is broached, it goes nowhere. It fizzles out. It garners shrugs and looks of confusion. Power? Are you talking about the ability to lift weights?
And therefore, the whole notion of freedom makes a very small impression, because without power, what’s the message of freedom? A person can choose vanilla or chocolate? He can watch Law&Order or CSI? He can buy a Buick or a Honda? He can take a trip to Yosemite or Disney World? He can pack a lunch or eat out at a restaurant? He can ask for a raise or apply for a better job with another company? That’s it? He can swim in his pool or work out at the gym?
He can take Prozac, or Paxil, or Zoloft?
Mostly, as the years roll by, he opts for more cynicism and tries to become a “smarter realist.” And that is how he closes the book on his life.
Every which way power can be discredited or misunderstood…people will discredit it and misunderstand it.
And then all psychological and physiological and mental and physical and emotional and perceptual and hormonal processes undergo a major shift, in order to accommodate to a reality, a space in which the individual has virtually no power at all.
