it’s not a cult, guys

Pure brain rot, Jesus Christ.

If you told me 10 years ago Donald Fucking Trump would be the head of the largest American cult of all time...

Just... What the fuck guys? What the actual fuck.

Fucking. Morons.

Literal fascists.

This is absolutely grade A batshit crazy, not just your average dystopian batshit crazy.

Not the smartest bunch. Unfortunately, that bunch seems to encompass 30-40 percent of the American population.

A lot of words to say CULT

My father is one of them. Because of his idiotic glorification and idol worship of trump, my family has told him to fuck off. Haven’t talked to him for almost 3 years now. He even believed the big lie

I really think that many moderates and liberals simply don't understand the grasp that he has over some people. This is how post WW1 Germany became Nazi Germany right before WW2.

We can make fun of it. We can complain about it. But what I rarely see is people studying it and trying to understand both the draw and the origins of this deadly attraction.

As much as we want to simply call these people "stupid" or "clueless" (which many people in this thread have already one) but it is much deeper than that. In fact taking that simplistic approach only makes it that much easier for him to recruit more people. The Left is so quick to minimize the hardships that many Trump supporters have faced in the past which might have pushed then to join his cult. If you constantly push groups away and this cult is openly embracing them and saying they understand their pain, then you can't be surprised when you hear headlines like the one for this story.

I feel like we need some sort of legal protection for circumstances like this. no objective analysis of these people's behaviour would agree that they're acting rationally, and probably can't even be considered to be in their right minds. should we risk individuals so afflicted being able to determine the direction an entire country takes? do they pass out voting forms at mental institutions?

It's a cult

I got told I'll get kicked out of my own apartment by someone who isn't on the lease if I make fun of trump and Republicans out loud lmao.

Me and my mother are on the lease. Her BF who lives with us isn't . Apparently he'll kick me out of my own apartment (I'm 25 btw. Not a kid.)

Actually scary.

Trumpism is a cult

Just like cult members. 🙄

It's called a cult.

Considering that Trump told them that COVID-19 wouldn't kill them and their family said it would, of course they would trust him since it didn't. Those that died of COVID, of course, didn't answer the poll. Survivorship bias!

It’s because they’re fucking stupid. We already know this. I swear, every news organization seems to like to post the obvious over and over again.

They'll take it as far as the pollster wants ask. It's not really about what they believe or say, it's about unwavering support and owning the libs. They know they'll never be tested where they have to choose, so it's just a big game to them.

Apparently Jonestown was just a dry run.

Jeeeesus fucking christ. America is one fucked up culture. I feel bad for them.

Cult

Religious leaders too lmfao.
