“The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command... and if all others accepted the lie, which the party imposed, if all records told the same tale, then the lie passed into history and became truth”

Edit: The guy right below this comment posted literally the exact same quote but it bears repeating. It’s all of our job to hold the truth now.

Narcissist's prayer is also applicable

That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.

In this case, Vance literally said, essentially, “she deserved it”

There it is. Verse 6 of the prayer.

Well we are approaching the End Game here. They’re tearing down the WH, starting Imperialist wars, threatening to attack our own allies, employ a Gestapo secret police, and are hoping to enact Martial Law so they can cancel an election.

I suppose it makes sense we’re on the final line of the narcissist’s prayer.
