Andrew Breitbart Recognizes The Story Is Different From The Narrative

I saw this, which was Andrew telling you to ignore the fact he walked into the flames, and check out the underlying narrative.

I think the great communicators are those who have learned the details are meaningless. When Trump sees anything in the area of communicating, I think he has relentlessly trained himself to see the narrative above all else. I think he has even trained himself to instinctually see how to speak in narratives, rather than details.

This isn’t easy, but I am convinced it can be done by most people, based on the small baby steps I have begun to take as I focus on what I am assuming when I see a fact.

Thanks to Scott Adams for the Persuasion reading list, and the intellectual push in this direction, too. It has been incredibly useful.

Spread r/K Theory, because the narrative must be that we are winning

As you are no doubt aware, Breitbart was possibly murdered by the cabal. Lügenpresse said he had a heart-attack, which is plausible enough for most (Breitbart had previously suffered a heart-attack). Then for an assistant coroner (Michael Cormier) handling the routine work of determining cause of death to mysteriously die of Arsenic poisoning on the day the coroner’s office findings were announced? I wonder what the mathematical odds of that are?? Breitbart’s demise took place just as he was about to break a huge story about Obama, which of course never took place. As Q likes to say: These people are evil. There had damned well better be military courts, and summary executions. Even such harsh measures are far more mercy than these people deserve.

Sounds old school. Like public hangings. Public shamings. Etc. Never thought on how public punishments were a deterrent to wrongdoers. Hell, they crucified Christ publically. Given the unrepentant evil and criminality run amok, I can see how these traitors ought to be executed live on TV.

What a world it would be if justice was midevil once again. The public execution idea has merit. What kind of K events would there need to be for that to be reality? Can hardly imagine the weeping and gnashing of teeth from the rabbits against the very idea. Doesn’t sound like Gitmo would have enough space to incarcerate all these people long term. There are so many rabbit barriers to a final solution like public executions and the like like that.

Vlad the Impaler was raised by rapist Muslims. His brother got Stockholm but he returned home and defended it with violence as bad as he’d witnessed. He saved Europe. They need the visible sign of law enforcement. Prisons are hotels, college for criminals.

Check out this tweet of his from Feb 2011:

“How prog-guru John Podesta isn’t household name as world class underage sex slave op cover-upperer defending unspeakable dregs escapes me.”

The Cabal most certainly had Breitbart killed.

AC –

You, yourself, are a good ways past “baby steps” in questioning reported “facts.”

I have always asked myself one question when I hear of, or come upon, supposed said “facts”, and it has served me quite well in “discerning” any news I take in:

Cui bono?

Many times that is a difficult tack to take. One must deal with the accompanying obfuscation that is almost always invariably attached to purported facts. But one must be aware. My friends call me a “news junkie.” I am not. I am a facts junkie. Being a pastoral theologian carries with it the Call to be observant, as Jesus said:

“And in the morning, ‘It will be stormy today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.” (Matt. 16:3)

You wrote: “I think the great communicators are those who have learned the details are meaningless. “ As we of my profession might chime in – The devil is in the details.
