37 lies Americans
tell themselves to avoid confronting reality
by Mike Adams, the
Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
(NaturalNews) Have
you noticed the incredible detachment from reality exhibited by the masses
these days? The continued operation of modern society, it seems, depends on
people making sure they don't acknowledge reality (or try to deal with it).
"Denial" is what keeps every sector of civilization humming along:
medicine, finance, government, agriculture and more.
The trouble with the
denial approach is that eventually the lies collide with reality. Until that
day comes, however, happy-go-lucky Americans are merrily enjoying their
courtship with self delusion, repeating the following 37 lies to themselves as
if they were true:
Lie #1) All
FDA-approved medications are safe to consume in any combination, because the
FDA protects the public.
Lie #2) Food prices
keep going up because inflation is a natural force that can't be halted.
Lie #3) The
mainstream media is telling me the truth when it reports on world events.
Lie #4) Chemical food
additives are tested for their safety before being widely used across the food
supply.
Lie #5) We can all
pump groundwater out of the ground forever, and it will never run out.
Lie #6) We can also
pump fossil fuels out of the ground forever, and they will never run out,
either. Why worry?
Lie #7) If anything
bad happens in terms of a national emergency or natural disaster, the
government will take care of me.
Lie #8) It doesn't
matter where my food comes from as long as it's cheap and delicious.
Lie #9) GMOs must be
safe to eat because a bunch of scientists paid by the biotech industry all tell
each other that GMOs are safe and therefore have reached "scientific
consensus."
Lie #10) Government
debt doesn't matter because the government can simply create more money any
time they want.
Lie #11) Mercury in
vaccines must be safe to inject into children, otherwise the CDC and FDA
wouldn't allow it to be used in vaccines.
Lie #12) Organic
produce is a waste of money. I'll buy conventional produce treated with
pesticides and herbicides because the cost of all the cancer treatments I'll
need 20 years later will be covered by Obamacare anyway.
Lie #13) The history
taught to children in public schools is a true and accurate history. Columbus
was best friends with the Indians, too!
Lie #14) Swallowing
fluoride chemicals is good for babies and children, and that's why cities put
fluoride into public water supplies.
Lie #15) Flu shots
prevent the flu. That's why the package inserts for flu vaccines openly state
there is no scientific evidence to support any conclusion that influenza
vaccines prevent influenza.
Lie #16) Whatever is
backed by "science" must be true. Science is never falsified by
corrupt scientists or corporate agendas, and scientific conclusions are never
wrong.
Lie #17) The global
ecosystem can handle unlimited human pollution without any negative
consequences. We can all continue to dump unlimited toxins into the
environment.
Lie #18) Cell phone
radiation is harmless. The reason we know that is because the cell phone
companies hired scientists to say so.
Lie #19) If everybody
else is doing something, it must be the right thing to do. After all, how could
so many people be wrong?
Lie #20) We don't
need to store food for emergencies because there will always be more food
available at the grocery store.
Lie #21) There's no
need to be concerned about Ebola or other infectious diseases in America
because the vaccine companies can always and instantly create a new vaccine
that works 100% of the time, with zero side effects.
Lie #22) Local police
departments need battlefield military weapons, armored cars and body armor
because the drug war demands it.
Lie #23) If I buy
something at Whole Foods, it must be healthy and free from contaminants like
toxic heavy metals. (Or is it really?)
Lie #24) My vote
really counts in national elections. We live in a democracy where the People
have power over the government.
Lie #25) My checking
and savings accounts are perfectly safe no matter what happens because my bank
is FDIC insured.
Lie #26) Raw dairy
products are dangerous and deadly because the FDA told me so. Those horrible
farmers selling raw dairy products should be locked away in prison.
Lie #27) My
oncologist recommends chemotherapy treatment for me only because he cares about
my wellbeing, not because his clinic sells the chemotherapy drugs at a huge
profit.
Lie #28) The
government isn't secretly recording my phone calls or reading my emails. Why would
they? I've done nothing wrong!
Lie #29) Commercial
dog food is healthy and nutritious for dogs. Dog treats made in China are also
trustworthy and free from contaminants like lead.
Lie #30) The only way
to prevent infectious disease is with a vaccine. Vitamin D and healthy immune
support have nothing to do with it.
Lie #31) After I pay
off my house, I own it free and clear. (Think again: Property taxes mean you're
only "leasing" it from the county. Stop paying those taxes and you'll
find out very quickly who really owns your home.)
Lie #32) Google will
do no evil, and the fact that the company is developing humanoid battlefield
robots, autonomous drones and super-human quantum computing brain chips is
nothing to worry about.
Lie #33) Cancer is
caused entirely by bad luck (or smoking) and has nothing to do with the food I
eat or chemicals in my personal environment.
Lie #34) The
radiation release from Fukushima wasn't that bad. Sure, it was many times
larger than the Chernobyl disaster, but authorities say we have nothing to
worry about.
Lie #35) Autism isn't
caused by vaccines, and the way we know is because the CDC scientist who
admitted to a massive conspiracy of scientific fraud to bury the evidence
linking vaccines to autism should not be believed.
Lie #36) All foods
certified as "organic" are automatically free of toxic heavy metals
and contaminants.
Lie #37) Human
civilization is the only intelligent civilization in the entire galaxy.
Anything else would simply be too scary to contemplate.
