I used these analogies yesterday when talking to a fellow truther:
At your local Catholic school they teach the students that premarital sex is wrong. So, as the school year progresses into spring, one young female student (we'll call her Libby) starts to look like she's gaining weight. People all start to notice Libby's belly, but nobody ever says a word to Libby about it. After 8 months of school, the End of School Dance takes place. Everybody's there... teachers, students, nuns, priests and Libby. For 4 hours, everybody stares at Libby's belly when she's not looking and they whisper as she walks by. When Libby approaches a new set of her pals they all grow quiet. She says "Hello" and the students all look her directly in the eyes...refusing to glance down at her big belly, to acknowledge she's 2 weeks away from delivery. They make small talk.They ask her if she'll see any concerts this summer...they ask her how she did on the algebra final, they ask her how her older brother is doing at college. But when Libby takes here hand and strokes her belly, they all shift there eyes around the room and start pretending that they are now suddenly into the song that's playing. To publicly address Libby's condition is to acknowledge she's had sex...and we all know that's wrong.
9/11 Truth is thee pregnant girl at the dance. And, Americans just can't bring themselves to acknowledge out loud, that their government has had sex.
Denial is powerful,.. Just as the alcoholic wakes up on the couch hungover and has to dispose of the bottles of evidence on the floor...Most Americans are still more likely to help throw the bottles away than face the hard truth that their friend has a drinking problem.
Or even worse is Battered Wife Syndrome and the fear of the unknown. Libby's had her baby and she and her baby live in a run down shack with the baby's father. Everyday he comes home drunk and verbally abuses her....she does nothing...then the abuse turns to the occasional slap or shove across the room...Her inner voice says somethings wrong, but then, her denial kicks in and she thinks " I'll turn him around, you just watch" ... but the abuse doesn't stop. In fact, it keeps getting worse. Now a few of her friends suggest Libby leave with her baby. But she has nowhere to go and is afraid of surviving on her own. Then, he comes home and really beats her up good...the cops are called and he's taken to jail. But again, her denial kicks in and she drops the charges. As she is applying makeup over her bruises she begins to cry. She tells herself that she has to leave, but where can she go? How will she live? She has no money, no job, the fear of the unknown is GREATER than her fear of this man. Unfortunately, the next beating he gives her, puts her in the hospital and when she awakens, her friends are there pleading with her to leave him...what will she do?
Most Americans know that something is terribly wrong with their Government. 9/11 truth is the bruises they are trying to put makeup over. After all, to completely acknowledge 9/11 truth, is to publicly proclaim that a divorce is NECESSARY. Well, that would mean at the very least, some sort of partial (hopefully non violent) revolution... and that Complete Unknown, is still far more scarier to them, than the bruises on their face.
