The Verer Effect: Why Denial Shapes Modern Politics
Hello, Earnest Mann here! This episode uncovers the Verer Effect, a term I coined to describe the ultimate form of denial. It's when people destroy a message they don’t want to hear, no matter how truthful it is. This concept frames our discussion of the recent presidential election, media narratives, and public perception.
Political Polls: A Tool for Influence, Not Insight
Polling has become a mechanism for shaping public opinion, not reflecting it. Polls exist to steer the masses, not to inform them—something everyone should remember next election cycle. Ignore the numbers; they are tools of manipulation.
Why Kamala Harris Lost and Donald Trump Won
The reasons behind Harris’s loss include societal factors like gender biases and her public image, but most importantly, the election was never intended for her to win. The system, manipulated by oligarchs and plutocrats, ensures outcomes that serve their interests. Similarly, Trump’s enduring influence reveals the corruption of American justice and how plutocratic control skews democratic processes.
The Illusion of Democracy
Democracy is marketed as a choice, but it’s carefully engineered. Whether it’s product A (Democrats) or product B (Republicans), the power elite manipulates outcomes to ensure nothing changes. This episode critiques the creeping rightward shift of U.S. politics, fueled by pop culture distractions and woke ideologies.
A Call for Real Change
Instead of protesting destructively, young Americans need to engage with historical lessons and prioritize informed actions over performative activism. Revolution requires substance, not slogans, and recognizing what's truly at stake.
I'm a deep thinking contrarian, a very pragmatic idiocythrope. I believe that function determines desirability and legitimacy. I don't like the superficial and/or pretentious, nor the shallow. I speak the truth as best as I know it, as a professor of tautology.
With friends, I desire quality over quantity. I know some very important life truths I'm just waiting for you to ask about. I have found in life, many people talk about happiness, but are unwilling to pay the price, or believe they shouldn't have to, because they are entitled to it, but I know with absolute certainty, that such beliefs are always due to stupidity, Insanity, or some degree of both.
This is not just another YouTube channel; I'm seeking to build a community of Intelligent thinkers daring to discuss, - and say - what the hell really needs to be said, so do the right thing, leave your thoughts, for me and others to possibly learn from, and subscribe, and tell everyone else in the world you know about me, and you'll stand a really good chance, of me remembering you, in my will!
I believe we really can change the current status quo of an idiotic and fucked up purposeless treadmill existence, and actually improve this world, but it requires intelligence, honesty, and BALLS, all three of which are currently in short supply, especially the balls.
Thank you for taking the time, to read this, and remember to avoid anything or anyone stupid, as much as possible, your life will be far better for it.
Please consider, that by visiting my website and/or donating to this show, you're supporting an actual person, not some mega corporation, that wouldn't know human compassion if it hit them over the head!
I look forward to hearing from you, and until next Monday or Friday remember, the world may be misinformed and batshit crazy, but YOU, don’t have to be!

I just want you to know that by being
here you're appreciated for your
curiosity always a sign of intelligence
and wisdom which means through you
despite all the crazy there is hope for
the world yet thank you for being
here I would like to say right out of
the gate this episode is not partisan
politics so if you really want a third
rail truthful insight into the outcome
of the presidential election don't leave
what I'm going to offer is a completely
different
perspective if you're anything like me
you just really damn glad the whole
thing is over with yet there is
something very important I want to tell
you and I promise you you're not going
to hear this on the mainstream news or
commentary there is a phrase that I
created long ago the verer effect this
describes perfectly what I'm about to
say so before I go into that let me
explain to you exactly what the verer
effect is the verer effect is when a
person is given the absolutely correct
answer to a problem but regardless of
how that answer is true transmitted to
the intended person or persons on a
School Blackboard written on paper sent
as an email or even directly face to
face you name it they will absolutely
ignore or destroy it because the truth
is despite what they may claim to the
contrary they absolutely do not want to
receive the message so they do anything
and everything to destroy the message
because they feel that if they do that
it will somehow change the reality that
they don't want to hear or
see just like a person who has a
diagnosis of cancer and wisely goes to
another doctor for a second opinion
except then they go to yet another
doctor and another doctor and another
doctor in short the verer effect is the
ultimate form of denial
I am fully aware of this and I want you
to know that I am fully aware of this
because that way when you become angry
telling me I'm stupid or crazy and go
into an emotional meltdown I'm still
going to state that this is the truth
whether you like it or not I am not the
one in denial here you
are now before I get into the real meat
and potatoes here's a nice appetizer
it's 100% true and it's one of the few
things in this world you can Bank on I'm
giving it to you for free so are you
ready here goes in the future in your
future you will be continuously besieged
with polling information and if you take
anything I'm about to tell you in this
episode seriously remember
this political polls do not mean what
you think they mean they definitely
serve a purpose but that purpose is the
exact opposite of what you've been
trained to believe so all you have to
remember is this political polls are
never designed or intended to reflect
public opinion political polls are
designed and intended to influence
public opinion always 100% of the time
so as far as polls are concerned I just
told you all you really need to know you
should completely and totally ignore
them now for the next shocker hardly no
sooner than when the voting polls closed
of course the speculation abounded as to
the reasons why the Harris lost she lost
because she was was a minority she lost
because she was a woman some even going
so far as to say that America simply
wasn't ready for a woman president she
lost because she as well as the
Democratic party did a very good job of
alienating men or my personal favorite
which I do have to admit really got
under my skin was her incessant
consistently inappropriate
cackling which like I said I really did
find very
irritating but even with all those
things together and or anything else I
may have missed that was not the primary
reason why she lost the election so are
you ready take a deep breath and please
don't allow the verer effect to take
over the primary reason she lost
election was because it was never
intended for her to win in the first
place now hopefully if all you wokers
so-called progressives and neoliberals
still have your head on your
shoulders that's really good because now
you'll get to hear what I have to say
about Trump and if I'm correct I don't
think I'll be invited to any
conservative friends after I say this
holes for Thanksgiving this year or any
year after that for that
matter you see I told you I was
nonpartisan when it comes to Donald
Trump the astronomical tsunami of
hypocrisy from the so-called
conservatives who support him is far
beyond the comprehension of any rational
mind mind I mean seriously Sigman Freud
Carl Yung and even Jordan
Peterson would all collectively lose
their minds trying to figure out that
rationalization for supporting Trump one
of my favorite presidents from the Past
who was a republican was Dwight
Eisenhower and by comparison to the
clown car of Bozo presidents ever since
his time both Democrats or Republicans
I'm certain he would be turning in his
grave seeing someone like Donald Trump
become president he would be spinning so
hard in fact I believe it's possible the
gravitational force he would generate
would throw the world off its
axis and out into orbit if any and I
mean any other man were facing all those
charges that Trump had he absolutely
would have been in jail a long time ago
he should be in jail a 100 times over
never to see the light of day well
except for an hour of daily exercise I
believe nonviolent criminals are allowed
and would definitely not be a free man
and absolutely would not be the
president of the United States
they should have put his ass in prison
and as they say thrown away the key but
that's how utterly corrupt our justice
department has become an absolute
mockery of Justice such is the current
state of our plutocratic corporate
controlled States of
America as the Trump trials progressed
it became very clear to me that
corruption was a foot and and Not only
was this extremely narcissistic con man
not going to jail but he was most likely
going to be installed as
president and when I say installed
that's exactly what I mean because I say
this once again the powers that be the
oligarchs and plutocrats want him and
since they have basically controlled the
US government since 1980 they just like
the mob get what the they
want that's the long and short of it
that's the
truth so the fact is not only did he win
an overwhelming majority he won the
popular vote as well but also the fact
is stop and consider what his
competition was despite everything I've
already said about Harris she also
wasn't the brightest candle in the
candle opera
just in case n of you millions of fellow
Americans missed that which based on the
results I don't believe was the case
Harris was deliberately chosen for her
very quote unquote qualities I had just
mentioned this is a very old but
effective simple trick because they have
successfully convinced the population
that they live in a democracy the masses
must be fed the delusion that they have
a choice when in fact there is no choice
it's simple marketing if sales are
really down for product B Republicans
use something to product a Democrats to
make product a so awful by comparison
that a lot less people are going to buy
it and that's exactly what happened with
Harris not only that that but that is
10:30
exactly what is going to continue to
happen because if the same old strategy
continues to work for the plutocrats why
the hell would they change it and
speaking of change the only change
that's going to keep occurring in
10:46
America like I said previously is
creeping slowly but inexorably to the
10:53
right of course as long as you allow
10:57
yourself to be distracted with endless
11:00
pop culture and many other things you're
way too busy looking at your cell
screens you keep sleepwalking and don't
see a problem till you walk off a
cliff so what happens next well
based on quite a bit of observation over
the years America will continue
inexorably creeping to the right you
youngans out there don't know this but
11:28
those of us in our 50s and Beyond do
because we've seen all this before
and if you would take the time to listen
or talk to us you might even find
yourself in a much better
situation but no The Village idiots have
been convinced that just about anything
bad taking place is the fault of
middleaged weight
males well
11:59
as one of those myself I can tell you
that you're wrong and the snake
academics who fed you that to boost
12:09
their academic careers and or sell books
12:12
are not only wrong but should be fired
12:15
from their cushy tenured PhD positions
buggy whipped and tarred and feathered
and I'm being kind Young Folks you can
simply keep doing what you've been doing
as your life as well as your Liberty
continues to spiral down the drain do
any of you know or remember the old
adage Insanity being defined by doing
12:43
the same dysfunctional act over and over
but expecting a different result no oh
you you probably wouldn't that was
12:51
probably written by some middleaged
12:54
white guy so that book got banned by the
NWA
the national woke
Association am I angry you bet your
sweet gold bricking ass I'm angry and I
have every right to be because
of the idiotic adolescent things many
I'm not saying all 20 and 30 nothings
say and do you do marches with signs
13:22
such as BLM Pro queer Pro whale Pro
snail Pro Palestinian and pro you
name it then like a group of
13:34
angry incoherent monkeys set fire to and
vandalize nice downtown areas in various
cities that took workers yeah you know
workers the very people that you
profess to care so much about a long
time to build then you scamper off thump
your chest and think you've really
accomplished something when you didn't
14:03
not for yourself or for society do I
14:07
have all the answers no I don't
14:10
claim to but at least I know one thing
14:14
the American Revolution against the
British was not won by carrying peace
14:19
signs at the Boston Tea Party on
14:22
December 16th
1773 it was an entirely different kind
14:28
of
party and the adults there participating
understood what was at stake in their
lives and you might know what's at stake
14:41
too if you could get your face out of
your cell phones long enough and stop
engaging in vicarious
identification that's all I have to say
for
now so in order to know know more about
well just about anything Park your ass
