I’m reading a book about a secret society that changes the world from the likes of Donald Trump politics to a dissolution of politics, into a world of the future where happiness reigns and great achievements are being created by humans. Looking back, the belief was that somehow these humans finally saw the light and through the illusions created by politicians like Trump and were able to abandon support for these false anti-civilization influencers. Then it suddenly registered that these humans knew the dangers all along of politicians like Donald Trump (and of smoking and climate change), but ignored the truth because they somehow needed that stimulation to live their lives.
It suddenly clicked to me that this is what’s going on in our own society nowadays in the world created by Donald Trump. While more than half the country sees what’s going on and can’t wait for the midterm elections to bring the House back to the Democrats and then, hopefully, the Mueller Report findings, there are these intractable Americans who support the president, no matter what he does. This is because they actually understand how bad Trump is and don’t care because they need the stimulation he provides in their lives. These are people who would rather revel in the thought that there are others beneath them whom they enjoy watching live a life in a lower class than they are in.
They would rather get the stimulation that a Donald Trump provides through his entertaining them in the uncreative lives they live. They are like the smoker who knows the cigarette is bad, but keeps on smoking for the stimulation it provides. These people are Trump Addicts! They need help, but believe, like the drug addict, that they are in control of their existence and just need more stimulation to get through the day.
While I believe every person in this world is capable of creating value for the rest of the human race, it’s easy to understand why some people call these Americans deplorables. I even think that if these Trump Addicts don’t get their daily fix of Trump, should he be impeached, we may still need ICE to deal with these deportables. There will be some very sick Americans who will no longer be happy because their stimulation fix has been removed. Maybe we can put the people who don’t create value in society into cages until they begin contributing!
