By Gabriel Chiron Alitheia in Ancient Greek means not merely Truth as we think of it in English. It means literally, un-covered, dis-covered, discovery, unveiled. Martin Heidegger saw the significance of this and went into it at length in his book, Parmenides. I want to go into it even more deeply. In a time like the present where propaganda, disinformation and psy-ops are being constantly and heavily utilized to dupe the masses in America, Britain and Europe (throughout the entire English-speaking world), truth of government wrong-doing, abuseof-power and do-it-yourself-false-flag-terrorism, is constantly covered-up and needs uncovered, alitheia. The English word, Truth, etymologically connects to the same root as trust, which implies hypnotic states, conditioning and belief. In English, truth is merely what people firmly believe, have faith in. In the English-speaking world, whatever people believe without question, without inquiry and investigation, is supposed to be Truth. This is the underlying sociolinguistic tendency. The very meaning of Truth in English is whatever the stupid masses are manipulated to believe by their government so their government can successfully cover-up, litheia, with lies. In Ancient Greece, the Truth, Alitheia, is the Truth-That-Comes-Out, the Uncovered Truth, as a result of successful investigation of the cover-up, the lies and illusions of the time. Truth, Alitheia, is finding out what is really going on, what has really happened. Truth, Alitheia, in Ancient Greece, is a disillusionment, an awakening from common mass belief. But in the modern world of government cover-up, Truth-That-UncoversThe-Facts is always called a Conspiracy Theory in the sense of a crank belief of people who want to disrupt society. This is the tendency in Ancient Greece which itself culminated in the martyrdom of Socrates. Socrates, like Parmenides, was a devotee of Alitheia, the Goddess of Truth, the Goddess of Uncovering Real Truth. It was not merely Socrates who was martyred in Athens, but Alitheia, the Goddess of Uncovering, of Discovery. The present governments of America and Britain are working very hard to kill Alitheia, Uncovered Truth, yet again and again. When a pattern of belief, a worldview or paradigm, is socially constructed as a reality in the human brain, it will reject unpleasant facts that do not fit the constructed pseudoreality. Learning happens when through investigation the constructed pseudo-reality pattern in the cognitive system is broken down into its elements, which can then be reconfigured to include previously rejected unpleasant facts, which leads to a new paradigm. Periodic paradigm-shifting from time to time, even from the new paradigm to the new new paradigm, is the learning process as opposed to the mere cumulative effort of only building up the present paradigm with reinforcing facts that seem to fit the current belief. Philosophical expressions that do not entail paradigm-shifting through extensive and profound inquiry and investigation, which is a manifested learning process, are false philosophy. Any rigid belief or disbelief in the name of philosophy is a farce, an actual
