Itās just insane, isnāt it?
There was a documentary on Netflix a while back. I forgot the title. It was an experiment a guy from India did in the US. He started a f**e eastern religion just to see if he could find anyone who would be duped into being a dev**ee. It actually was easier than he thought and he and his team gathered a small following. Eventually he had to tell them he was a f**e and it was just an experiment. There was a wide range of responses. Some took it lightheartedly, some were shocked, some really doubted he wasn't really a guru, and some were highly offended for being deceived.
But the reality of the phenomenon was indisputable! People are gullible, and they want, sometimes desperately, to have a guru who has all the answers.
I think most l*****ts are like that, they want desperately to believe the hype the MSM feeds them, and I think most politicians, on either side of the aisle recognize that susceptibility of people and exploit it. How else could people like Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson or Barak Obama or Hillary Clinton convince people to trust them? The āgullibility-for-a-guruā factor is a strong force.
Of course, unfortunately, I donāt think some Trump supporters are immune to the phenomenon. But I think a lot of liberals project their āguru dependenceā (for lack of a better term) on a lot of us Trump supporters. Iāve said many times Iām not totally sold on Trump, (ie he certainly hasnāt kept his promise to ālock her upā which is highly disappointing because of the implications of a two caste system in the US), but he sure beats the alternatives on the the left side, and he sure has all the right enemies!
Anyway, I think that phenomenon sheds a lot of light on the situation.
There are two types of people that feed off each other that are destroying America: first, the type of people who want someone else to figure out things for them and tell them what to think (the guru dependents), and secondly, those who think they know better how to run peopleās lives than they think people can do for themselves (guru/god-complex). These people together are k*****g us! This is what the l*****t plantation looks like.
The US canāt exist for long without free people being educated and responsible for their actions.
