Double Standards

Double standards are among the few things I simply can't tolerate, especially when some individual or collective intentionally violates all the rules it requires others to stricly adhere to. This is also known as exceptionalism.

In the past few years I've come to notice this exceptionalism practiced by one collective and its vassals as the worst kind of double standards as it has caused so many misfortunes to so many people around the world for so many years.

Every time I observe it, I ask myself when this can be stopped once and for all. One consolation is that many other players in the same "arena" are waking up to their double standards and saying no to them.

What is no less disgusting is how they justify their double standards. The most straighforward way is to make their "spokespersons" lie with a straight face or a smirk. I can immediately think of some of the most disgusting faces of such serial liars

A more sophisticated form of lying is to use propaganda tools to brainwash a wider public of people. Thanks to the Internet, especially two social media platforms, more and more individuals are waking up and saying no to these propaganda tools. As one of such people I can't help warning those who still seem asleep, but I often fall on deaf ears.
