Every one of my contacts in Mac Contacts are duplicated, but when I search for duplicates it doesn't find any. I am sure this somehow has to do with iCloud and the way contacts are being brought down into my Mac, but how do I fix it? They are NOT duplicated on iCloud or on my iPhone or IPad.
I am running Mac OS Ventura 13.01.
MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 12.6

Thanks to James at 118 for this, but here's what he said could work.
Could you check for additional accounts in Contacts>Preferences...>Accounts? You can also select Contacts>Accounts... to determine which accounts are active with contacts.
Also open Contacts, then select View>Show Groups. The sidebar should then be able to display the accounts which are associated with various contacts.
There are Contacts in iCloud and then there are Contacts " On My Mac "
The contacts " On My Mac " as the name denotes, are stored Locally ( On the Computer ) and Not on iCloud
refer to image later in this reply.
Suggest Disabling the sync process Only for Contacts
Then restart the computer and check Contacts for apparent Duplicates
The Re-Enable the Contacts to sync with iCloud.
This will basically Force a Re-Sync and hopefully eliminate this computer issue
I've tried that but Contacts does not recognize ANY duplicates.
God work there 👍
Contacts are duplicated
