Fight Lies with Classical Poetry, Not "Facts"
A note to readers: this is an old post on the archive website for Promethean PAC. It was written when we were known as LaRouche PAC, before changing our name to Promethean PAC in April 2024. You can find the latest daily news and updates on www.PrometheanAction.com. Additionally, Promethean PAC has a new website at www.PrometheanPAC.com.
The onslaught of lies about virtually everything, emanating from the media, politicians and the establishment’s so-called experts, has become so pervasive that it often appears overwhelming. In frustration, American patriots have turned to “alternative” sources to “get the facts” only to be further frustrated that presenting these facts has no effect on diffusing or countering these lies, or even providing a pathway to finding out the truth.
Lyndon LaRouche showed the way to free our nation, from this web of lies: not with facts, but with the principles of Classical poetry. LaRouche emphasized that truth and progress, in science, politics, economics, and art can only be discovered and communicated through the principles of classical metaphor.
Tonight, we begin a four-part series of presentations on LaRouche’s principle of classical metaphor with a dialogue with Dan Leach, a poet and 50-years long organizer with the LaRouche movement. What is this ancient weapon that LaRouche wielded against the enemies of mankind for more than 60 years, nurturing the spirit of Re-Americanization now sweeping the land?
Please join Dan and me for this evening.
