MAKE THE WORLD SAFER. STOP TRUMP AND HIS MINIONS. (UPDATED.)

 

How should Democrats, Progressives, and Liberals Combat the Donald Trump/Republican Fascist Agenda of creating a Police State ruled by a few, Destroying and Eliminating such CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS AS;

FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

FREEDOM OF THE PRESS.

FREEDOM OF RELIGION.

...and turning the average American into a SERF, WHOSE LIFE AND WELL-BEING IS LEFT TO THE WHIMS OF THE NEW "ARISTOCRACY." 

#1-  Acknowledge that the Selfish, Self-Centered, and Dishonest also Vote, so Quit trying to Win over everyone through Fear of Confrontation.

#2-  Stop Allowing Trump and the Republicans to Hijack the Moral High Ground, when its Media Campaign is Transparent, and Easily Refuted. 

  

#3- Stand Up to the Outright Lies and Misrepresentations that are part of the Daily Drivel that spews forth from Donald Trumps mouth, which is usually little more than Irrational and Hate Filled propaganda.

#4- Never allow Statistics and Numbers to go unchallenged. The Bogus returns from the  2016 Election were a perfect example of what happens when you blindly accept results without proper examination.

#5- When Statistics are Trotted Out about possible Fraudulent Activities in Social Programs, Demand the Sources for such Claims, and what Procedures were used to draw specific conclusions.

Along these lines, make sure the following Key Points of the Republican Agenda are Studied and Examined thoroughly.

-  Corporate Bailouts that allow POOR MANAGEMENT

SKILLS TO BE REWARDED WITH A SAFETY NET

PAID FOR BY THE AVERAGE TAXPAYER.

-  Tax Breaks that allow Wealthy Individuals who

make Bad Investment Decisions to recover

their losses, paid for by MIDDLE CLASS

AMERICANS.

-  Funds Acquired Through Government Contracts,

that are Shifted to Foreign Markets with no Positive

Effects on the U.S. Economy.

-  Refusing to Raise Wages to a Minimal Level, which

Encourages Self- Sufficiency, and Decreases the 

Need for Government Aid.

...OTHER POLICIES THAT PUSH AN AGENDA THAT

BENEFITS A NARROW SET OF AMERICAN CITIZENS,

THAT ARE PUT IN PLACE TO INCREASE WEALTH AND

PRIVILEGE, AND NOT TO ADDRESS BASIC NEEDS.

FINALLY, DO NOT ALLOW IDEAS AND CONCEPTS SUCH AS 

"CRITICAL RACE THEORY" OR "CANCEL CULTURE" TO BE

DEFINED VAGUELY OR INCORRECTLY, ENCOURAGING THE FAR-RIGHT AGENDA TO BEND AND MOLD THEM INTO ANY SHAPE THEY WANT. THIS ALLOWS THE INTELLECTUALLY MEANINGLESS PROPAGANDA THAT FOLLOWS TO GO UNCHALLENGED, WHICH IS THE NATURAL PRODUCT OF TERMS AND PHRASES THAT DO NOT HAVE UNIVERSAL DEFINITIONS.

 

THE HIDDEN ALLIES OF DONALD TRUMPS ATTEMPT TO RETURN TO POWER.

 

In the past, I have used the following description to paint a picture of Donald Trumps most Hard Core supporters;

It is a mistake for Progressives to think that those who make up the Most Conservative Elements of the "NEW REPUBLICAN PARTY" ARE ALL CUT FROM THE SAME CLOTH. WHILE THEY MAY VOTE AS A BLOC THE PRIMARY MOTIVATION DIFFERS FROM GROUP TO GROUP.

While They are usually Packaged Together, ULTRA CONSERVATIVE POLITICIANS HAVE REALIZED THAT FINDING THE ONE KEY ISSUE THAT DRIVES CERTAIN GROUPS OF VOTERS TO THE POLLS, OFTEN WILL TURN THEM INTO LOYAL ALLIES, who will support an agenda full of Issues They may care little about.

It could be GUN CONTROL, SAME- SEX MARRIAGE, GOVERNMENT SPENDING, SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE, IMMIGRATION LAWS, REPRODUCTIVE MEDICINE, etc. THE STRATEGY IS TO PUT FORTH AN UNCOMPROMISING, RIGID, AND VITRIOLIC POINT OF VIEW ON A PARTICULAR ISSUE, APPEALING TO THE BASER ELEMENTS OF HUMAN NATURE.

THE REASON: TO LEARN OF THE ONE ISSUE THAT EACH SECTION OF INDIVIDUAL VOTERS MOST IDENTIFIES WITH, AND MANIPULATE IT TO THEIR ADVANTAGE.

IT'S A TACTIC THAT REQUIRES NO INTELLECTUAL EFFORT ON THE PART OF THE LISTENER. THERE IS NO NEED TO UNDERSTAND, OR EVEN CARE ABOUT THE OPPOSITIONS POINT OF VIEW. IT PLAYS ON RAW EMOTION, WITHOUT THE NEED FOR CONTEMPLATION OR REFLECTION.

THE INDIVIDUAL IS ENCOURAGED NOT TO THINK ABOUT AN INTELLECTUAL JUSTIFICATION FOR THE OPINION THEY ARE SUPPORTING, BUT TO REACT TO THE WORDS OF THE AUTHOR AND\OR SPEAKER, AND ACCEPTING THE MESSAGE AS TRUE, AND WORTHY OF SUPPORT.  THIS, IN TURN, ENCOURAGES AGREEMENT WITH OTHER OPINIONS THAT ARE EXPRESSED THE SAME WAY.

This analysis gives us a window into the mindset of Trumps most Vocal and Publicly recognizable supporters.To them,Trumps Intellectual and Moral Political Views are in line with their own. It is the desire to turn the U.S. Into a Fascist State where the Constitution is to be ignored or completely disregarded in terms of interpreting and setting Moral and Intellectual standards that create guidelines for the Legal System that Governs the lives of all Americans.

These are the MAGATS that are the Public Face for Donald Trumps Political Agenda, from the attempt to seize control of Government after Trumps 2000 Election defeat to the "Crowds" that attend his in person Rallies.

While Trump counts on their support for the upcoming Election, he and the GOP/FASCIST PARTY OF AMERICA  realize their numbers will not bring victory. So they have come to the decision that other sources must be cultivated to ensure victory at the Polls.  The MAJOR Difference between MAGATS and these new ALLIES IS NOT ONE OF MUTUAL SUPPORT FOR A COMMON POLITICAL AGENDA, BUT A DESIRE TO DESTROY THE CURRENT SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT TO CREATE ONE THAT MIRROR THEIR OWN POLITICAL IDEOLOGY. In fact ,WHAT TRUMPS CAMPAIGN AGENDA IS MEANS ALMOST NOTHING, IT IS THE SYSTEM ITSELF THEY WANT DISMANTLED.TRUMP IS JUST A TOOL  THEY ARE USING TO ACHIEVE THIS END.

In part 2 we will look at the ANARCHIST AND THE IDEOLOGICAL FASCIST.

FACT CHECKING TRUMP, AND ANYONE ELSE. PART 3.

 

Too often we allow our Feelings, Prejudices, Pre-Conceived Ideas, and Physical and Emotional Desires to lead us to draw conclusions that, Logically, are Invalid or not Proven to be Factual.

This, of course, is an error in Judgment anyone can make. Progressive or Conservative, Democrat or Republican, Well Informed or Ignorant. etc No one is immune to the Intellectual and/or Emotional Satisfaction of being Right or Vindicated in what they believe to be true.

The Problem is what one does when faced with contradictory Facts or Arguments that indicate that their Conclusion(s) are in error.

To make this easier to understand, let us examine two BASIC TYPES OF LOGICAL ARGUMENTS.

VALID DEDUCTIVE ARGUMENT: IF THE PREMISES ARE TRUE, THE CONCLUSION MUST BE TRUE. This establishes Conclusions that cannot reasonably be considered to be incorrect.

EXAMPLE:

PREMISE 1- Human Beings cannot survive in an environment where water is not present.

PREMISE2: Planet X is barren of any water supply.

CONCLUSION: Mankind cannot survive on Planet X.

As you can see, if we provide enough factual data that both premises are True, the Conclusion itself must be accepted as true.

So, when someone asserts something as Truthful, and you disagree, your first question should not be similar to the following:

"Your wrong, because I learned/Heard/Read something that proves you are incorrect."

That in itself usually leads to dueling opinions, because your contradictory statement must also be properly argued.

Try this instead: "That is interesting. Tell me what Data or Facts lead you to believe that to be true?"

Now you are not contradicting the speaker, but are forcing them to:

- Offer a Validly constructed argument. 

- Create premises that support the conclusion they are making, each of which also must be defended as true.

In the above example of Planet X, the conclusion that Mankind cannot live on Planet X rests solely on both premises being true, and that there is satisfactory Data that cannot be refuted that proves the accuracy of both premises.

Any words that are colored RED represent portions
of the Transcript that were BLACKED-OUT, 
AND COULD NOT BE READ. WORDS LIKE
"INVESTIGATIVE TECHNIQUE" ARE NOT
MY CREATION, BUT WERE PLACED OVER
BLACKED-OUT AREAS)

As you go through the MUELLER REPORT, there is one very important detail that must be acknowledged: IT IS THE STORY OF TWO INVESTIGATIONS. Why do I say this? BECAUSE CONCLUSIONS DRAWN WERE NOT ARRIVED AT BY THE SAME PROCESS,WITH JUST ONE AGENCY, DEPARTMENT OR INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBLE FOR EVALUATING EACH EVENT, AND THE VALUE OF THE CORRESPONDING EVIDENCE.

WHAT DO I MEAN? CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING EXCERPTS, TAKEN 
DIRECTLY FROM THE TEXT. (IN ITALICS)

The Russian government interfered in the 2016 presidential election in sweeping and systematic fashion. Evidence of Russian government operations began to surface in mid-2016. 

As set forth in detail in this report, the Special Counsel's investigation established that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election principally through two operations.

First, a Russian entity carried out a social media campaign that favored presidential candidate Donald J. Trump and disparaged presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. 

RUSSIAN SOCIAL MEDIA CAMPAIGN. 
(HERE ARE SOME EXCERPTS FROM THE BODY OF THE TEXT.)

Internet Research Agency (IRA) carried out the earliest Russian interference operations identified by the investigation. A social media campaign designed to provoke and amplify political and social discord in the United States.

- The IRA was based in St. Petersburg, Russia, and received funding from Russian oligarch Yevgeniy Prigozhin and companies he controlled. Pri ozhin is widely reported to have ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin. HARM TO ONGOING MATTER.

- The campaign evolved from a generalized program designed in 2014 and 2015 to undermine the U.S. electoral system, to a targeted operation that by early 2016 favored candidate Trump and disparaged candidate Clinton. 

- The IRA later used social media accounts and interest groups to sow discord in the U.S. political system through what it termed "information warfare." 

 The IRA' s operation also included the purchase of political advertisements on social media in the names of U.S. persons and entities, as well as the staging of political rallies inside the United States. To organize those rallies, IRA employees posed as U.S. grassroots entities and persons and made contact with Trump supporters and Trump Campaign officials in the United States. 
-


Second, a Russian intelligence service conducted computer-intrusion operations against entities, employees, and volunteers working on the Clinton Campaign and then released the stolen documents. 

RUSSIAN HACKING OPERATIONS. 
(HERE ARE SOME EXCERPTS FROM THE BODY OF THE TEXT.)

At the same time that the IRA operation began to focus ·on supporting candidate Trump in early 2016, the Russian government employed a second form of interference: cyber intrusions (hacking) and releases of hacked materials damaging to the Clinton Campaign. The Russian intelligence service known as the Main Intelligence Directorate of the General Staff of the Russian Army (GRU) carried out these operations. In March 2016, the GRU began hacking the email accounts of Clinton Campaign. 


In March 2016, the GRU began hacking the email accounts of Clinton Campaign volunteers and employees....the GRU hacked into the computer networks of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) and the Democratic National Committee (DNC). The GRU stole hundreds of thousands of documents from the compromised email accounts and networks. Around the time that the DNC announced in mid-June 2016 the Russian government's role in hacking its network, the GRU began disseminating stolen materials through the fictitious online personas "DCLeaks" and "Guccifer 2.0." The GRU later released additional materials through the organization WikiLeaks. 

The presidential campaign of Donald J. Trump ("Trump Campaign" or "Campaign") showed interest in WikiLeaks' s releases of documents and welcomed their Potential to damage candidate Clinton. Beginning in June 2016, HARM TO ONGOING MATTER forecast to senior Campaign officials that WikiLeaks would release information damaging to candidate Clinton. WikiLeaks' s first release came in July 2016. 



Now, the Investigation into the above 2 categories provided enough evidence to the committee that
made them confident in drawing definite conclusions, and in some cases, filing Criminal Charges. I will cover these in more depth at a later time, but there is one more category to cover. What you read below may seem to be a part of the RUSSIAN HACKING OPERATION...

...BUT THERE IS ONE MAJOR DIFFERENCE.


EXCERPTS FROM THE BODY OF THE TEXT.

In addition to targeting individuals involved in the Clinton Campaign, GRU officers also targeted individuals and entities involved in the administration of the elections. Victims included U.S. state and local entities, such as state boards of elections (SBOEs), secretaries of state, and county governments, as well as individuals who worked for those entities. 186 The GRU also targeted private technology firms responsible for manufacturing and administering election-related software and hardware, such as voter registration software and electronic polling stations.187 The GRU continued to target these victims through the elections in November 2016. While the investigation identified evidence that the GRU targeted these individuals and entities, the Office did not investigate further. The Office did not, for instance, obtain or examine servers or other relevant items belonging to these victims. The Office understands that the FBI, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, and the states have separately investigated that activity. 

By at least the summer of 2016, GRU officers sought access to state and local computer networks by exploiting known software vulnerabilities on websites of state and local governmental entities. GRU officers, for example, targeted state and local databases of registered voters using a technique known as "SQL injection," by which malicious code was sent to the state or local website in order to run commands (such as exfiltrating the database contents). 188 In one instance in approximately June 2016, the GRU compromised the computer network of the Illinois State Board of Elections by exploiting a vulnerability in the SBOE's website. The GRU then gained access to a database containing information on millions of registered Illinois voters, 189 and extracted data related to thousands of U.S. voters before the malicious activity was identified.

GRU officers INVESTIGATIVE TECHNIQUE scanned state and local websites for vunerabilities. For example, over a two day period in july 2016, GRU OFFICERS INVESTIGATVE TECHNIQUE
for vulnerabilities on websites of two dozen states. INVESTIGATIVE TECHNIQUE.

Unit 74455 also sent spearphishing emails to public officials involved in election
administration and personnel at companies involved in voting technology. In August 2016, GRU officers targeted employees of **** ,a voting technology company that developed software used by numerous U.S. counties to manage voter rolls, and installed malware on the company network. Similarly, in November 2016, the GRU sent spearphishing emails to over 120 email accounts used by Florida county officials responsible for administering the 2016 U.S. election. 191 The spearphishing emails contained an attached Word document coded with malicious software (commonly referred to as a Trojan) that permitted the GRU to access the infected computer.192 The FBI was separately responsible for this investigation. We understand the FBI believes that this operation enabled the GRU to gain access to the network of at least one Florida county government. The Office did not independently verify that belief and, as explained above, did not undertake the investigative steps that would have been necessary to do so.



The Hacking operations that included the following:

- Individuals and entities involved in the administration of the elections.

- U.S. state and local entities, such as state boards of elections (SBOEs), secretaries of state, and county governments, as well 
as individuals who worked for those entities.

- Private technology firms responsible for manufacturing and administering election-related software and hardware, such 
as voter registration software and electronic polling stations.

- Employees of **** ,a voting technology company that developed software used by numerous U.S. counties to manage voter rolls, and installed malware on the company network. 

- Florida county officials responsible for administering the 2016 U.S. election...


WERE NOT EVALUATED, IN TERMS OF THE QUALITY OF THE EVIDENCE, BY THE OFFICE OF THE SPECIAL COUNSEL.


FROM THE TEXT:
While the investigation identified evidence that the GRU targeted these individuals and entities, the Office did not investigate further. The Office did not, for instance, obtain or examine servers or other relevant items belonging to these victims. The Office understands that the FBI, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, and the states have separately investigated that activity. 


The Office did not independently verify that belief and, as explained above, did not undertake the investigative steps that would have been necessary to do so.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? WHILE THE OFFICE OF THE SPECIAL COUNSEL IDENTIFIED EVIDENCE THAT THE GRU"TARGETED THESE INDIVIDUALS AND ENTITIES", NO FURTHER INVESTIGATION WAS DONE.

WHY?

"The Office understands that the FBI, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, and the states have separately investigated that activity."

"The Office did not independently verify that belief and, as explained above, did not undertake the investigative steps that would have been necessary to do so."

Well this answers the question: "Who is exonerated by the Mueller Report?"
ANSWER: NO ONE. The Evaluation of the
most important information regarding fraud in 
the 2016 election was not part of their 
responsibility. They couldn't exonerate anyone
even if they wanted to.

BLAST FROM THE PAST- THE ADVERTORIAL: DONALD TRUMPS GET RICH QUICK SCHEMES.

 

HOW HAVE WE COME TO THIS? THE INCOMPETENCE, IRRATIONALITY, CRIMINALITY, AND BETRAYAL THAT HAS LEAD THE U.S. TO EDGE OF THE ABYSS. PT 4. THE ADVERTORIAL: DONALD TRUMPS GET RICH QUICK SCHEMES.

ADVERTORIAL- A SALES AND MARKETING STRATEGY BY WHICH ADVERTISERS TRY TO SELL PRODUCTS AND/OR SERVICES TO THE CONSUMER BY DISGUISING THE SALES PITCH AS A "NEWS" REPORT, ITEM, OR INVESTIGATION. IT IS A PRACTICE THAT RELIES ON THE GULLIBILITY, AND TRUST, OF SOME CONSUMERS WHO BELIEVE IN THE "INHERENT" TRUSTWORTHINESS OF THE NEWS MEDIA.

NOW, YOU WOULD EXPECT THAT A "SELF- DESCRIBED" GENIUS IN THE WORLD OF BUSINESS WOULD NOT NEED TO ENGAGE IN SUCH  DECEPTIVE PRACTICES. WELL, DONALD TRUMP SEEMS TO NEVER LET THE TRUTH GET IN THE WAY OF WHAT HE WANTS. 

HERE ARE TWO EXAMPLES:

BEFORE THE 2016 ELECTION.

Donald Trump reveals simple plan to help every American earn more money.
By Michael Pearson, Faith Karimi, and Joe Sutton, Fox News.

Mr, Trump says the best opportunity available is a new program called Home Cash Code which teaches regular people to take advantage of this massive internet opportunity quickly and easily, and even places them with real online companies that pay them for their time completing simple tasks.

"Sara Taylor is absolutely changing the world with her Home Cash Code program" he said. "Normally, rich people keep the secrets to their wealth to themselves. 

Trump has not hidden his affection for Ms. Taylor. He has recently been praising her on social media for her efforts to teach regular people how to create amazing wealththeir spare time.

We investigated the claims made by Mr. Trump and Ms. Taylor, and what we found is nothing short of amazing.

AFTER THE 2016 ELECTION

President-Elect Trump releases his new Program to help Americans earn wealth.

He’s earned MILLIONS - HE WANTS YOU TO DO THE SAME!

By Michael Pearson, Faith Karimi and Joe Sutton, CNN

CNN) — Speaking before a packed auditorium Donald Trump revealed the secret economic plan behind his "Make America Great Again" initiative. "It's no secret that the Average American is earning less today than they were before the 2008 recession." Stated Mr. Trump. "The reason is simple. There are people who know how to make money very easily, and they've rigged the system for themselves without sharing their secrets with people who really need it."

"I'm going to change all that" Mr. Trump added...

Mr, Trump says the best opportunity available is a new program called Internet Profit which teaches regular people to take advantage of this massive internet opportunity quickly and easily, and even places them with real online companies that pay them for their time completing simple tasks.

"Heather Smith is absolutely changing the world with her Internet Profit program" he said. "Normally, rich people keep the secrets to their wealth to themselves. But Sara, she has found an amazing opportunity, and she is sharing it with everyone. That's incredible."

Trump has not hidden his affection for Ms. Smith. He has recently been praising her on social media for her efforts to teach regular people how to create amazing wealth in their spare time.

We investigated the claims made by Mr. Trump and Ms. Smith, and what we found is nothing short of amazing. This LIMITED TIME PROGRAM is only available through this SPECIAL PROGRAM - Trump is sharing his secrets for a DRASTICALLY REDUCED sign up fee.

Now you may notice that:

Both programs are marketed the same way, but are identified by different names. Further, one uses FOX NEWS AND THE OTHER CNN AS THE "SOURCE" OF THE REPORT. Doing this as a PRIVATE CITIZEN IS BAD ENOUGH, BUT TO USE THE TERM "PRESIDENT-ELECT" IS DESPICABLE.

THE QUESTION IS THIS: WHY WAS THIS INFORMATION NEVER USED BY SENATE DEMOCRATS AGAINST DONALD TRUMP, EITHER BEFORE OR AFTER THE 2016 ELECTION?

THANKS TO CHARLTON MEMORIAL AND TUFTS HOSPITAL.

Back home after a month long stay in 2 Hospitals. Although still recuperating from a pair of Medical Procedures, I would like to thank the Staffs of:

- CHARLTON MEMORIAL HOSPITAL. (FALL RIVER, MASS.)

- TUFTS MEDICAL CENTER HOSPITAL. (BOSTON, MASS)

For the excellent care I received. This includes all staff members who treated me

from Diagnostics to Direct Care. The State of Massachusetts should be very proud

to be the home of two such exceptional Medical Care Facilities.

DEFINING AND UNDERSTANDING TWO OF THE MOST DESTRUCTIVE TERMS THAT ARE OFTEN AN ESSENTIAL PART OF CREATING TOTALITARIAN GOVERNMENTS. (UPDATE).

 

Donald Trumps Presidential Run is not as much a bid for power, as it is

an attempt to Mobilize the Small but fanatic group of Fascist Loyalists desperately

clinging to the hope that the U.S. can be turned into a Putinized Theocracy, with an 

Extremist form of "CHRISTIANITY" based on Hate and Prejudice becoming the Law 

of the Land. Trumps words and actions leave little doubt that this is the section of the American

Public he is counting on.

However, counting on for what? As you read the following ask yourself this: How much of the current Rhetoric coming from Trump and his allies is comparable to what is laid out below if he is returned to the WHITE HOUSE.

FASCISM - FORM OF GOVERNMENT IN WHICH ALL POWER, POLITICAL ,LEGAL, SOCIAL RESTS WITH ONE PERSON AND/OR A SELECT FEW.

DICTATOR- ALL POWER RESTS WITH ONE PERSON.

JUNTA OR RULING COUNCIL- POWER RESTS WITH A FEW, HALF-DOZEN OR SO.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS CIVIL RIGHTS. LAW ENFORCEMENT AT ALL LEVELS IS CONTROLLED BY ONE SOURCE.

THE MILITARY PLEDGES ALLEGIANCE TO THE RULER(S).

RELIGIOUS FREEDOM IS ALLOWED ONLY AS FAR AS PERMITTED, DEPENDING ON HOW IT SERVES THE PURPOSE OF THE RULING GOVERNMENT.

COURTS ARE ADMINISTERED BY SELECTED JUDICIAL FLUNKIES, WHO KNOW THAT THEIR DECISIONS MUST BE AGREEABLE TO THE FASCIST LEADERSHIP, OR THEY ARE OUT.

THERE CAN BE ELECTIONS, WHERE ALL CANDIDATES ARE CAREFULLY SELECTED BY THE DESPOTS IN POWER. THERE IS NO PARTY SYSTEM ALLOWED. NO REAL OPPOSITION.

EVEN IF SOME FORM OF ELECTION(S) IS ALLOWED, THE RESULTS MUST BE AGREEABLE TO THE POWERS THAT BE, OR THEY ARE VOIDED. 

THE NEWS MEDIA IS NOTHING MORE THAN A SYSTEM OF PAID PROPAGANDISTS, NO OPPOSITION IS PERMITTED.

MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL- THE LEADERSHIP IS ACCOUNTABLE TO NO ONE. SINCE THEY ARE THE SOURCE OF ALL LAW, THEY CAN NOT AND WILL NOT BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR ANY ACTIONS THEY UNDERTAKE. 

TERRORISM-  THE USE OF VIOLENCE, OR THREAT OF SUCH, TO ADVANCE THE DOCTRINE, IDEOLOGY, RULES, OR GOALS OF A GIVEN AND IDENTIFIABLE GROUP:

- THAT IS NOT GENERALLY REGARDED AS A LEGITIMATE POLITICAL ENTITY.

OR

- NOT RECOGNIZED AS THE LEGAL AUTHORITY FOR A SPECIFIC RESIDENT POPULATION OR GEOGRAPHICAL AREA.

IN ADDITION, A GENERAL REJECTION OF PEACEFUL OR DIPLOMATIC SOLUTIONS TO RESOLVE DIFFERENCES WITH THE POLITICAL OPPOSITION.

TRUMP AND MAGA: WHEN FASCISM AND HATE MASQUERADE AS CHRISTIANITY.

As usual, opponents of Der Fuehrer Trump and his Fascist Followers are again missing the point when dealing with this Minority Group of Treasonous Hitlerites/Stalinists. (One and the same.)

They keep referring to them as "Christians", yet they fail to ask the most pertinent Question of All?

WHAT MAKES THEM "CHRISTIANS?" Just because someone defines themselves as such, why do others automatically accept it? I can call myself anything I want, but others are not Morally or Legally required to accept it as Valid and Reasonable. I have referred to Trump and his Gang as "CHRISTIAN FASCISTS" TO EMPHASIZE THE POINT THAT THEY ARE NOT TRUE FOLLOWERS OF THE TEACHINGS TAKEN FROM THE NEW TESTAMENT, BUT ARE HIJACKING THE NAME TO ENFORCE THEIR OWN BRAND OF CONFORMITY TO CERTAIN SOCIAL NORMS THAT MUST BE LEGALLY BOUND TO ALL CITIZENS. A SELECT LEADERSHIP WILL MAKE SURE THAT THEY WILL BE OBEYED AT EVERY POINT OF LAW. (OR ELSE.)

As we have seen throughout Human History, Religious Faith and a select System of Government often come together to enforce upon Populations their own set of Laws and Social Norms that give both what they really want: Power, Prestige, and Steady flow of Cash.

"OBEY THE KING, QUEEN, EMPRESS, EMPEROR etc...THEIR WORD IS LAW."

"...BUT WHY?...

"YOU DARE QUESTION THE AUTHORITY OF THE CHURCH? THAT CROWN WAS PLACED THERE BY THE HAND OF GOD, THROUGH HIS SERVANTS ON EARTH."

"IF YOU QUESTION THE THRONE, YOU QUESTION GOD. YOUR SOUL IS IN JEOPARDY OF ETERNAL TORMENT, SO MAYBE SOME PROPER PERSUASION OR REFLECTION IS IN ORDER."

Basically, Until the "AGE OF ENLIGHTENMENT" which was best exemplified by the Intellectual Development of having a Country that was not Ruled by Self-Styled "Royalty" or bound by the Moral Code of a Select Set of Religious Leaders that became the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Humanity was subject to the whims of a select few...NOW THAT FEW WANT THE POWER BACK...

THE SOCIOPATH- A DANGER ALL AROUND US. PARTS 1-5.

 

FEATURE ARTICLES.

THE SOCIOPATH-  A DANGER ALL AROUND US.  PT 1.

Look for what lies underneath the surface. When certain acts of violence are reported in the media, how often do we hear the following;

• "How could he do that to his best friend?"
• "Why would a mother hurt her own children?"
• "He's such a nice guy and a good family man, he can't be guilty."
• "The victims were so innocent, why would anyone want to hurt them?" 

Of course, there are numerous other examples I could use, but the point is clear.  Even after thousands of examples throughout the centuries, we are still caught off-guard by acts of seemingly senseless violence and brutality. However, we shouldn't be.  There is now, and perhaps has always been, a certain segment of Humanity that thrives on the misery they cause to others. THE SOCIOPATH.

I will define the Sociopath as; An individual with a fully developed and ingrained personality that;

• Uses others as tools to satisfy individual desires.
• Lacks remorse or empathy for the pain and suffering they cause to others.
• Has a Grandiose, Inflated self-image that makes them feel like they are the center of the universe.
• Enjoys Deceiving and Manipulating people, often for no other reason than a sense of power.
• Positive words such as Dignity, Honor, and Duty or negative words such as Cruelty, Prejudice and Suffer are meaningless. They represent concepts foreign to the Sociopath.

To put it simply, the Sociopath represents a personality that most of us cannot comprehend or identify with. That is where the Danger lies.  They use this lack of knowledge to cultivate new victims who are unaware of their true nature.

See pt.2 in a future posting.

FEATURE ARTICLES. THE SOCIOPATH- A DANGER ALL AROUND US. PT 2.

The Sociopath has often been labeled as mentally ill, or even insane.  As human beings, it is often difficult for us to judge extreme behavior.  Since we often cannot place ourselves in situations that would lead us to act as the Sociopath does, the result is defining such actions as a product of a diseased mind.  However, the Sociopath has no physical or chemical abnormalities.  They process information in a rational manner, and act on what they perceive to be in their best interest.  The difference is that most people consider the effect on other individuals and society as a whole to be of value to them physically and/or emotionally.  The Sociopath doesn't.

Don't get me wrong,  There are certain conditions that can cause an individual to act with great violence and cruelty, for which they cannot be held accountable either morally or legally. This is commonly called PSYCHOTIC BEHAVIOR.

Often, the Sociopath and the Psychopath are grouped together as being one and the same.  However, this is not true.  The person with a diagnosis of Psychosis has a real and identifiable condition, resulting from a physical abnormality and/or chemical imbalance within the brain. The Sociopath has no such problems.

Look for pt.3 in a future posting.

FEATURE ARTICLES. THE SOCIOPATH- A DANGER ALL AROUND US.  PT 3.

Too often when we judge the extreme behavior of others, the conclusions drawn are based on faulty assumptions.  When someone is labeled with terms such as "Crazy", "Maniacal", "Deranged" etc, by the general public, it is based solely on the perceived mental state of the individual.  Their actions, based on our concept of proper moral behavior, are so outlandish we conclude that they must be mentally ill.

This is an unfortunate line of reasoning, for the Sociopath is basically given an excuse to avoid responsibility for their actions.  However, this judgment is not made through proper mental evaluation, BUT HOW IT DIFFERS FROM OUR OWN SET OF MORAL PRINCIPLES.  SINCE THE BEHAVIOR SHOCKS US AND FLIES IN THE FACE OF HOW WE EXPECT PEOPLE TO BEHAVE, IT MUST BE MENTAL ILLNESS.  THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF TAKING A PURELY MORAL JUDGMENT AND ASSUMING THAT IT ALSO GIVES AN ACCURATE READING ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH. THIS IS A CONCLUSION WE CANNOT REASONABLY DRAW.  MORAL BEHAVIOR AND PSYCHOLOGY ARE TWO DISTINCT AND SEPARATE DISCIPLINES.

You must realize the Sociopath does not feel they are mentally ill, so they do not seek treatment.  They are perfectly content with their lifestyle and see no reason to change it.  Ironically, they often feel that it is everyone else who is suffering from a mental malady.  Since the Sociopath is not hindered by feelings of guilt and cannot empathize with others, they conclude these traits are personality flaws that can be exploited.(Continued in a future posting.)

FEATURE ARTICLES. THE SOCIOPATH- A DANGER ALL AROUND US. PT 4.

Now you may be asking yourself,  "How can I know if I am dealing with a Sociopath, what are the signs?" First of all, one important fact must be placed on the table when we try to answer this question;  Sociopaths come from all walks of life.  There are no economic, racial, social, or intellectual traits that have been identified as exclusively Sociopathic.  A Sociopath could be your parent or sibling, Aunt or Uncle, Close family friend, Business acquaintance, Teacher...etc.  Sometimes the hardest part of identifying a Sociopath is facing the fact that it might be someone close to you.

You have to realize, the Sociopath is playing a part.  They create a facade that best suits their needs and desires, projecting an image to others that makes them seem to be something their not.  They are very adroit in adapting their behavior to given situations and use this ability to manipulate others.  Once a perceived weakness is spotted in another, the Sociopath decides how to exploit this characteristic and acts accordingly.

However, there are certain things you can look for, if you think that you are dealing with a Sociopath.  Keep in mind, these examples are not universal in nature.  Not every Sociopath will exhibit all of these behaviors.  In turn, many of the following examples may be found in people who are not Sociopaths.  Yet, if you find an individual who fits multiple examples, you may have reason to be cautious.

I would like, before I begin the list, to point out that Sociopath is not a mental illness that is the result of a physical defect of the brain.  Unfortunately, one is not born a Sociopath, where early diagnosis could lead to proper treatment.  However, before I get into what circumstances may create a Sociopath, let us go through the list.

THE SOCIOPATH-  A DANGER ALL AROUND US.  PT 5.

Here is a sample list of behaviors generally attributed to be indicative

of a Sociopath.

•  Pathological lying.
•  Lack of empathy.
•  Refusing to accept responsibility for their actions.
•  Inappropriate behavior in certain social situations.
•  A wholly unrealistic image of their personal worth to individuals and groups.  
• Superficial personality with no real depth, which is often masked by being extremely outgoing and friendly to others regardless of the nature of the relationship.
• Takes much more than gives from friends or relatives.
• Inability to work closely with others, especially if they are not in charge.  Rarely takes orders or commands without being resentful.
• Manipulates people and situations with ease, for only the outcome counts.  No thought to the effects on others.

This is by no means a complete list.  For further information I recommend researching the pioneering work done by Dr. Robert Hare.  As you read through this list, and research other types of behavior that are associated with Sociopathy, look for what they have in common with each other.  The most obvious commonality you may find is this;  Sociopaths are the most selfish and egocentric group you may ever encounter.  In no given situation will the Sociopath ever think about possible effects that their behavior has on the well-being of others.  That is, of course, unless it serves their own purposes.

How do we identify a Sociopath?  Sometimes it means understanding what created them.
