Description

In matters political, and not least during the present hailstorm of lies from our leaders concerning the origins of and political responsibility for the Coronavirus pandemic, I have often wondered whether somewhere there was a fool-proof way of knowing when something I see on TV or read in the papers is not true. A tool which tells me without having to dig deeper, that what I am hearing, seeing and reading cannot be true.
My book, Lies our Leaders Tell Us:How Cultural Marxism Staged a Comeback-In the West is my attempt to come up with the tools to answer these questions.
The first tool is Karl Popper´s falsification test: if any one statement can be falsified, such as there are no black swans, when black swans have in fact been found in Australia, that statement cannot be based on fact. When WHO says publicly in a tweet dated January 14,2020, that there is no risk of human-to-human transmission and we know Taiwanese authorities told them the opposite in December 2019, we know WHO is lying.
The second tool is that of the dismal science, economics, namely, to teach our reader to ask a simple question: compared to what? The Coronavirus pandemic is undoubtedly a serious health challenge for the West, but the risk of death is small for otherwise healthy individuals,34.000 Americans died of flu in the 2018-19 flu season and serious treatments are quite likely to be on hand shortly.
The third tool, is that old police chestnut: cui bono? Who benefits from the lies? The short answer: our political leaders. Not just because they are covering up, like the WHO, but because our political elites in the West,as opposed to those of countries with few Coronavirus problems like Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore who all had learned from their 2003 experience with another bad flu, SARS, were woefully unprepared and slow to level with their populations.
Lies Our Leaders Tell Us takes its readers on a non-fiction picaresque journey on A Ship of Fools. Like all picaresque stories from Henry
