What to Understand

Donald Trump is the most obvious liar and egomaniac since year 2013. It is blatant, it is obvious, it is clear as day, it is documented.
Understanding the Problem Assertion 1: The problem is not Donald Trump. One liar "Big Shot" who plays golf and spends time with his family retired in Florida on the golf course and goes and hangs out with his buddies is nothing special for a man age 70 and older.
Understanding the Problem Assertion 2: The problem is We The People, the population of society. "MASS PSYCHOSIS - How an Entire Population Becomes MENTALLY ILL"
How did this happen? Assertion 3: A 1985 book by Neil Postman, Manhattan / New York University Professor (Donald Trump's Home Town) predicted all this for America's future. On February 2, 2017 his son Andrew Postman confirmed that Donald Trump was what his father's book was ultimately about.
Understanding the Problem Assertion 4: The Theory of SOCIETAL STUPIDITY by Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Nazi Germany mass conformity / collective blindness

"They’re not beating the controlled opposition allegations like how do you mess up this bad against a literal fascist unless it’s intentional"

In hate for hate, hate harder values, that statement makes sense.

But imagine women in Afghanistan "mess up this bad" in Resistance to the Taliban unless they want it intentional. It is as if people in USA don't comprehend faith systems (faith in hate harder, We The People not standing up for goodness).

Imagine saying Russian people intentionally want Putin in power. Because they "mess up" the desire to remove him so badly.

It's a fundamental failure to understand how power works with The People of a society, not just voters, but power of groups who both think-freely and assert goodness. There is a paradox that love and compassion are choices, but hate and dehumanization (and mocking "The Democrats" for their failure, support of even more mockery with simplistic reactionary thinking) are default.

There really isn't a choice of love and compassion. But people still favor hate. As if hate ever has a good outcome.

"Love is creative, understanding goodwill for all men. It is the refusal to defeat any individual. ... Love is understanding, redemptive goodwill for all men, so that you love everybody" - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

And another very sick teaching is that "I love" has to mean "I agree". No, it doesn't. You can ask Donald Trump to resign, but social media users are only mocking others for not asking Trump to resign... when it is the population (even those not able to vote due to age or other reasons) who aren't making it a sustained topic. The only sustained behavior in USA population is reacting to Donald Trump, not asserting "Please Resign" to the entire bad values of Republican political party.

How much more badness values, attraction to badness, do you have to witness? It's been more than 11 years since Donald Trump made it clear to everybody in the world he wanted to lead the nation. How much more badness do you have to see before you recognize that badness itself has taken hold as an attraction in USA?
