#discrediting

In my research on the destructive activities of anti-cultists, I have come across astonishing facts about how they use their power to manipulate public opinion and undermine democratic processes.

They are not limited to persecuting religious groups - their goal is much broader. They seek to control the political landscape and manage public opinion through propaganda, slander, and disinformation.

National Security expert Egon Cholakian, whose work is connected to several US presidents and intelligence agencies, has revealed the schemes of the shadow side that they use to influence politics and undermine democratic processes.

Ukrainian Elections 2020: A Telling Example

Respected Egon Cholakian gives the example of the 2020 Kyiv mayoral elections, where the shadow side actively used its media to discredit mayoral candidate Iryna Vereshchuk.

Vereshchuk gave interviews to various media, including the volunteer channel ALLATRA TV, where she expressed a pro-Ukrainian and pro-democratic stance, and also demonstrated her readiness to serve the Ukrainian people.

But the anti-cultists used this interview to discredit Vereshchuk, accusing her of supporting "pro-Russian views" and calling her a "sectarian."

This slander campaign was so successful that Vereshchuk lost her rating and did not become mayor.

Thus, Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, did not get a mayor whose position would be clearly unfavorable to the plans of the shadow side and would pose a threat to their interests. Why else would they invest resources and engage their influence agents in her discrediting? This is just one vivid example of the influence of the shadow side on elections in a democratic country, with the aim of directing the political processes of this country in the direction they need.

ALLATRA: Victim of Anti-Cultist Disinformation

Respected Egon Cholakian emphasizes that even such a pure and law-abiding organization as ALLATRA has fallen victim to the manipulations of the shadow side and has been used as a "scarecrow."

What does this mean for us?

This situation demonstrates the enormous power of anti-cultists over media and public opinion. They can smear any person, regardless of their position or beliefs, and use this to achieve their goals.

We must be vigilant!

It is important to be aware of the manipulations of anti-cultists and to critically evaluate the information we receive. Do not succumb to propaganda and disinformation.

Protect freedom of speech and democratic values! By publicly exposing the machinations of the shadow side, we are protecting the entire society peacefully from their manipulation.

Per a respectar-se a un mateix, és molt necessari adonar-se de quina roda de pensaments aleatoris estem generant.., la crítica compulsiva, el menystenir, el desprestigiar, etc.., formen part d’una roda de pensaments que planen per damunt de totes les ments en aquests moments al món. Son pensaments negatius que desgasten als qui els crea i expressa, i, als qui els escolta i s’impregna…

Ad-hominem Attacks (attacking a person)

Unfortunately, there are many ways to attack or discredit an opponent.

One is to publicly question their ability to follow the proposed arguments (though they are illogical) and blame them for being uncapable (or unwilling) to do so. 

This attitude is often sustained by spreading (through social media) negative statements about the opponent, like: not trustworthy, unethical, stubborn fundamentalist, fanatic, lunatic, only cui-bono-driven, biased, not qualified, industry-paid.

This is often times done in a subversive way, e.g., when ‘just’ saying that other people hold this opinion. On the other hand, wrong statements can be uttered blatantly and repeated again and again: Obama was not born on American soil. Or: many world leaders are in reality shape-shifting reptilian aliens taking on human form.

Key is to repeat these statements over and over again (ad nauseam) and in different ways to make them stick to the audience, since a statement becomes truer and more convincing the more often it is repeated (most recent example: we won the election by a landslide, or: this election was rigged).

Another method is called ‘poisoning of the well’.  For example, if an anti-abortionist calls this praxis ‘Holocaust’ and their opponents ‘Nazis’. It is obvious that the right for abortion should not in any meaningful way be compared to the Holocaust, but the naming serves the purpose of discrediting the opponents. Another example: if someone who is in favor of separating state and church is called a ‘secular Taliban’. Arguments may be forgotten, but the name sticks ‘forever’.

Let’s be honest the Kardashians and the Jenners are the queens of problematic. From doing cultural appropriation to steal another small business owner’s design, each of them have been on hot water for something they’ve done. The first person I’m going to discuss is Kim Kardashian. As much as I’m grateful for Kim on speaking out on gun control, BLM and prison reform. She has done things that makes her look a bit ignorant. 

Kim has done cultural appropriation, but mostly on hair.The problem with this is because Kim and her sisters are very popular celebrities so when they have someone do their hair into either cornrows or another hairstyle that was originated from Africa, gossip websites sees it as a trend that KKW created and dubbed as boxer braids. Although I’m not a black woman, myself, I will say that I’ve seen many black people say that they don’t mind if you wear their hairstyle just remember where it was originated from. I don’t think Kim got the message when she posted this photo:  

And use the caption “Bo West”. She assumed that actress Bo Derek whom wore that same hairstyle back in the 70s, Kim probably thought that Bo Derek created the hairstyles when she didn’t. The hairstyle is called Fulani Braids or cornrows. Kim hasn’t even educated herself on the hairstyle and remained unapologetic for her actions.

When videos of Jeffree Star saying racist stuff surfaced around the Internet, many people weren’t happy with the beauty guru. Kim was one of the few people who defend him by saying she believe in second chances but told people get over it.  do believe in second chances and I do think that Jeffree’s apology video was genuine, however I wouldn’t tell a race that has to hear racial slurs on a daily basis to get over what Jeffree Star said 10-12 years ago. Many people tell POC to get over what happened to them, even though their ancestors, their grandparents or even themselves basically cause the damage that traumatised the POC. from Black People to Asian People they have suffered through the abuse, rape, tortured and murdered that the white man inflicted on them. Kim tried to apologise, but the damage has already been done. 

In 2018, Kim announced her jewellery line called Class Blossom Collection, however it seems that Kim stole the idea from another Jewellery Designer Tanaya Henry. Henry also said that Kim used the same photographer, Marcus Hyde. She has also stole other small business owners idea from fashion to make-up, however the list is so long we be here all day. It seems like she and her sisters steal the ideas mostly from women of colour.
