Why has liberalism become so anti-liberal?

There’s a question which cannot be asked enough, why are folks so willing to live under a barrage of contradictory rhetoric aimed at them from all sides? Demonstrable lies are fed by the legacy media, our governments and their bureaucracies, the multinational conglomerates foisting a ridiculous trans agenda with men portrayed as women, and Big Pharma lying to us about the efficacy of their drugs. The contradictory misinformation has been endless. Frankly, I am astounded at the level of tolerance most seem to have for such blatant contradictions since we cannot escape facing the consequences of such a campaign aimed at forcing us to live in a constant state of self-evident inconsistencies. Perhaps then I need to engage in deeper self-reflection since what troubles me deeply seems not to bother others. I needed to find out whether this is due to my own emotional limitations and mental failings or to something else, so in an attempt to understand myself better I did a simple web search to see if there were articles or academic papers written on this topic. I invite you to do the same by simply typing “what causes some to have a strong need to live without contradictions” into your search engine of choice, for the results of the search are telling. Website after website informed me that by embracing the cognitive dissonance of holding contradictory ideas at the same time would “liberate” me by freeing up my “creative potential”. Yet in another article in Psychology Today @ https://www.psychologytoday.com/ca/blog/what-would-aristotle-do/202105/how-contradiction-can-generate-mental-disorder (please read or open at my blogger link to read the portion I read there)

So, which is it, is it liberating as the Postmodern apologists state or is it the cause of mental and emotional instability due to irreconcilable cognitive dissonance? But there I go again needing consistency in an argument. But I have come to a conclusion, namely that Leftist ideology is based upon observable contradictions. So let us examine a few; on the one hand it wages war on the family unit by making it unaffordable to have large families, and by grooming children with their perverted sexual "education" programs, along with a radical abortion agenda yet when it comes to their own families nothing is more obviously sacrosanct and sacred than protecting their own kith and kin by every nepotistic means at their disposal.

But why the necessity of these contradictions? The most successful bait and switch of our time has been the disguising of radical leftist agendas under a faux banner of liberalism. Liberalism gave us free markets, capitalism, Adam Smith, the American Constitution, the freest, and the most prosperous societies in human history but it certainly did not give us Marx's and Engels' Dialectical Materialism and Critical Theory's WOKE agenda disguised as liberalism for these latter ideologies are diametrically philosophically opposed to the former!

I refuse to live in the angst of cognitive dissonance by holding two or more mutually exclusive philosophical positions in my mind at the same time. I ain’t that WOKE and Postmodern to be that incredibly unaware of the hypocrisy and hubris required to accept an ideology that not only makes no logical sense but contradicts itself in order to force others to comply with its irrational demands! The single greatest contradiction of all is to be found in the phrase democratic socialism since socialism requires coercion and force. Try living in any country claiming to be a welfare state in order to quickly discover that democratic socialism is an oxymoron! I know because I have done so much to my dismay and chagrin!

In order to provide some philosophical perspective, I am attaching the link to YouTube where you may listen at no cost to Mikkel Clair Nissen’s excellent work on this very topic entitled, “Manipulism and the Weapon of Guilt: Collectivism Exposed” which is the utmost controversial exposé and carefully detailed description of the awful emotional mind game that facilitates communism, socialism, fascism, and social liberalism, known as collectivism. The book exposes Denmark, the supposed happiest nation on earth, for what it truly is: collectivism's biggest propaganda hoax. Danish author Mikkel Clair Nissen tells the hidden facts and realities of life in Denmark’s democratic-socialism that they never want you to know.
