Janus Duplicity Pattern is just a phrase we coined to describe a recurring pattern we noticed politics, political-commentary, parapolitics, and geopolitics. It is when the same entity issues an ENTIRELY contradictory statement about precisely the same subject, often within the same context. It is named after the Roman god Janus (for which the month of “January” is named). Janus has two faces.

This common pattern is so emergent that it is a common format of political critique used on social media (usually with screenshots) as best embodied by accounts like DefiantLs.
