I am not sure I belong to any type of cult. I have avoided groups and clubs, established a religion and political parties my whole life. I may have been a long distance backpacking cultist for awhile and a living off the grid cultist in the past. Some of my friends and family probably consider me to be a member of the retired at the beach old fuckers cult.That is not a definition of being influenced by a cult. Strongly held beliefs are not defining criteria for a cult or for cult followers when the issue is one of provable and accepted.Wrong. I am using accepted criteria and tenets that define a cult. It is a method of mathematical evaluations based on an accumulative total of defined criteria and tenets.Delusional cult inspired politics has come to America with an addition of erratic behavior from both a President and his following of supporters often referred to as the "Trump Base". It has caused Americans who support their President to ignore and make excuses for endless lies and misinformation promoted by the President despite the presence of recordings, videos, live addresses, documents and overwhelming proof to confirm a constant stream of these lies and misinformation. It has brought about hate, violence, and division and stalled or even halted advancements to benefit the American population. The simplest bipartisan programs and policies that would make life better for all Americans are lying in wait for the curse to end and rationality to return to American Politics.
The question is, has trump and his cult dealt a permanent destructive blow and curse to American Politics or is has the cult just a temporary set back and nightmare? Will the curse continue after the nation rids itself of trump or will his and their legacy be recorded as "irreparable damage" to American Politics"?
Thinking people who disagree with you politically as a "cult" just shows how out of touch you are with your fellow countrymen, and is how you GET MOAR TRUMP.
Thinking people are influenced and become members of cults. Intellectual ability has nothing to do with it.
Indeed. Any group with strongly held beliefs is a cult by definition.
Which cult are you?
So, again. To what cult do you belong?
