Left-Wing Ideology: A Cult, a Religion, or Science?

[Timmy]

The best definition of a cult I ever read is this: A cult will try to make itself your sole emotional support structure alienating you from friends and family. The Trump cult is doing this in spades.

Your family and friends choosing to alienate you has nothing to do with Trump.

I have lots of family and friends but the hardcore Trumpbots have become so obnoxious that even regular old republicans hate to see these miserable bastards coming. There are two men in my town that come to mind. They sit in the bars in full Trump regalia talking shit real loud and pretty much spoiling everyone's good time. People are here on vacation for Christ's sake and God forbid someone says something to them.

We know you snowflakes are easily frightened, but you really shouldn’t be scared of anyone wearing something that shows support for Trump.
Trump supporters are very accepting of differing opinions ... and some the nicest people you’ll ever meet.

Lol! Give one example of cons being accepting of any other opinion ?

You Trump guys are the cultists . Doesn’t matter what Trump says or do, you eat up every lie.

The guy is the opposite of what conservatives say they believe in.

Trump will win again in 2020.

No he won’t . He’s burning those mid west bridges .

Wow two whole men? Being obnoxious? Woah...what is the world coming to?!

A MAGA hat is not a license to be a jerk. In all my days the only other time I saw people acting like this were the Klan rallies my Grandfather used to drag me to or the tent revivals my Grandmother used to drag me to.

There's jerks of all creeds, colors and nationality. If you think the left is jerk-free then you might be a victim of a cult-like mindset.

No my best friends voted for Trump and there are complainers of all kinds that I avoid. My point is that these MAGA guys are a new phenomena that even make the old tea party loons seem agreeable. It is a cult of personality built around a man not an ideology.

Democrats don’t have anyone who could beat Trump.

Socialism is a state of society where most wealth, either de jure or de facto, belongs to a government.

Capitalism is a state of society where most wealth, both de jure and de facto, belongs to its citizens.

Communism is a Utopian state of society where all wealth, both de jure and de facto, belongs to a government.

The author rightly points out that it is impossible to argue with a socialist/communist because they refuse to see any point other than what is included in their dogma.


Doesn’t that make it a form of religion?

It is often said that left-wingers and right-wingers do not understand each other because they "live in parallel universes," or one side blames another for living in the so-called "alternative reality." Since core leftist belief is irrational, the right-wingers are not surprised when adherents of leftism stiffen their resolve when confronted with social and economic truth.

In other words, instead of accepting a valid argument that contradicts the prevailing dogma, the very first reaction of adherents of a dogma is to protect the dogma at all cost.

Some extremely valid points.


The opinion piece goes on to cite endless examples and it well-worth reading @ https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2019/05/leftwing_ideology_a_cult_a_religion_or_science.html

'First you need to define Left-Wing

Herein is a little help:

Framed by the original meaning of left and right, i.e. the left of the people, the right as to the King.

Thought process of the young and idealistic. Just not realistic.

They gained in the Senate and they lost fewer seats in the House than Barry did in 10.

We in America used to abhor the kind of politics that led to a man like Trump being president. It seems as the last survivors of WW2 die off we no longer have the kind of cautionary voices to tell us where this all leads.

Oh, now that's a funny joke. The men who fought in WW2 grabbed a whole lot of foreign pussies while they were overseas, even the ones who had wives waiting at home. They talked a lot of locker room banter too...

They were hardly PC soyboy faggots with delicate, girlish sensibilities like you.

Are you referring to the obama admin and hillary? I only ask because that’s how Trump won the presidency.

Trump won because people were sick of what they were seeing over the past 8 years.

In the short time Trump has been in office, he has managed to accomplish more for Americans than obama could dream of. Hell... even obama said Trump would need a magic wand to do better than him! lol

Morons......like you......should ponder this:

The city with the MOST millionaires is ..............Socialist/Communist, Moscow

The wealthiest man in the world is...................Socialist/Communist, Vlad Putin....

 

[tycho1572]

Now that we’ve seen how desperate democrats were for power, via the trap they tried setting for the Trump campaign, every voter should be very concerned.

We’re seeing that level of desperation again as they try obstructing Barr from telling voters how they tried denying voters a choice.

Agree. Communism is a wealthy center of power ruling over a vast poor population. I don't think you meant to prove that point, but you did. Dumb ass.
