An informal metric for measuring the stability of a society is the distance between reality and the official truth of the ruling regime. The more lies the regime tells, the less stable it is and the society over which it rules. Official lies are a good proxy for the degree of authoritarianism within the regime. The degree of authoritarianism is a good proxy for the level of official insecurity. The more thuggish the regime the less support it enjoys, thus the more need to lie to the people.
Tragic outliers like a deranged lunatic going on a rampage are just part of the human condition, but how can something be done to limit it? It feels like this stuff happens more often now, but who can know? The even bigger question is why are these obviously deranged people are ignored by the people around them?
One of the underrated aspects of Orwell's "Animal Farm" is how the pigs used deception to create doubt among the animals. It reached the point where the animals could not trust their own memory. The other day, The Washington Post claimed George Floyd was shot by police. How long before school children are taught, he was hanged by the Proud Boys? More importantly, how many people will tire of correcting the record and this lie becomes official truth?
In the final years of the Soviet Union, the general public no longer believed anything said by their government. The people in government were every bit as cynical about the official truths, but they were paid to lie so they lied. What held it together is both sides were sure the other side believed the lies, at least at enough of them that the rest dared not question the lies. The collapse came when everyone realized that no one believed what they were forced to say or forced to hear.

The Party responds: What the United States is lacking is a social communitarian aspect. It also lacks a nationalist element and a democratic element. The lack of social cohesion is causing alienation and angst among the masses which is what drives mass shootings and drug abuse. Such will not be the case in the White People's Republic. As regards lies the United States lies to its people on a daily basis! The Ukrainian situation is a case in point. It is disheartening when otherwise decent White conservatives parrot the system's lies. The war in Ukraine did not start in February 2022 with a special military action by Vladimir Putin. It started in 2014 as regards blatant interference in Ukrainian affairs by the American State Department as regards Victoria Nuland. With the United States you never know whether something was done out of malice or incompetence or some bizarre combination of the two. The United States is not a healthy nation (in reality it is not a nation at all) as regards its culture and mental state and it is only going to get worse until it tanks the system. Like in the latter days of the Soviet Union we know the system is lying to us, but the system thinks we believe their lies and far too many do!
