Outstanding. This is "hard work" but it's good work, Sam.
I don't envy your position, having to analyze this awful period in our country's history, but thank you for doing it. I'm beyond exhausted so have to rely on folks like you with the bandwidth to carry on and try and make it make sense. Thank you!
✨Excellent read, Sam. Yet, these past elections might very well be the last democtatic ones the USA will have. That is why hundreds of thousands of US citizens are seeking to leave the country and that there is a haemorrhage on Musk's social media platform.
I will stay there and fight for as long as they let me. ✨
Me too. I'm too old and too comfortable to pull up stakes and move to Sardinia - even if they are giving homes away - some furnished! - for 1€. They are hoping to repopulate their empty community with trump haters. Tempting, but nope. I'll stick around until they take away my Social Security, Medicare, and subsidized housing. Then my cat and I will live in my son's basement for a change!
Extreme candidates - like Trump - require “special” handling.
They only react to equal or stronger invectives aimed at them. If you can’t do that you’re dismissed as a real lightweight and pay no attention.
Sarcasm has value in today’s political climate. It used to be more respectful, everyone trying to be the nice guy, but those days are over since the caliber of electable candidates has sunk to new lows and that seems to be the only language they understand.
Communicating with lower educated people shouldn’t be that hard but seems to be an *art form* while not alienating your followers and new listeners.
I was waiting for Harris to turn off the charm towards the end and turn in some good attention grabbing snark. She came out guns ablazing but lost that pitch towards the end.
You understand it. No one seems to be willing to talk about the basic reason things went wrong. Evil people do bad things because they don’t give a damn about the consequences to anyone but themselves.
When there are no consequences to their actions - they go on criming because they have no reason to stop. It’s all about them and getting as much as they can.
The wall of prison or death is the only thing that will stop them.
I have spent enough time among people with their personality disorders (so bad that they alpha each other); watching with a dispirited eye ( from my background in science and PTSD) - to not recognize what has been happening for decades now.
It’s no different than the “mutual destruction” of the Cold War that will hold these personalities back.
But our elected leaders are blind to the danger or so fearful of their own jobs of lives that they are unwilling to take action.
No consequences for 1/6/21
No consequences for by candidates for the Supreme Court about lying about precedent to obtain a seat on the Supreme Court - specifically to overturn Roe v Wade.
No consequences for removal of top classified documents from by trump to his publicly accessible property in Florida.
Without consequences there are no reasons to stop these personalities from enriching themselves.
Those dark personalities who have been allowed to claim the election while the “normals” point fingers in confusion will burn down our Constitution and the American way of life for anyone not loyal to them.
They are already sending out polls to ascertain who voters selected in our “secret” ballots.
What are these polls going to be used for in the future - take a wild freaking guess.
Kay, should we avoid responding to polls? What about contacting our representatives in the House? I don't want to become a paranoid recluse, and I'm already a recluse - so interacting with others on Substack is the only way I 'socialize'. I'm willing to ignore polls, they're usually asking for money. But I refuse to abstain from interacting with the people here.
I interact here. I’m also on a tight budget - living on SS. & Medicare Advantage (because of the zero deductible out of SS). Not the way I should have ended up but that’s a whole different story and why I despise the judicial system.
I watch what is happening - not the “polls” as much. Supposedly the “polls” are truthful BUT with as much money and the tech billionaires involved on the wrong side - I no longer trust them.
If you “stream” your TV or video, check out “Haystack”. It allows you to get news from all over the world so you can see how others see us. It helps with perspective. The stories are just 1 or 2 minutes so easy to binge
The rules have changed, as in — there are none! By failing to recognize that, you cannot adapt to deal with it. Everyone is trying to plow through problems when you should be going around them. Conventional means have no chance of breaching the envelope of intransigence around armies of unreachables in the trench warfare of our times. But integrate those same tools into an unconventional framework for honest debate — and now you’ve got something.
If you want to start solving problems, first you need to clear the clutter that’s crippled this country. To do that, you don’t go after everything, you go after one thing that ties to everything. And you do it by holding one man to his own standards. The cult-like following of this fraud is unlike anything I've ever seen. As I've been in the trenches battling hermetically sealed minds for decades, that's saying something!
I’m practically spit on by people promoting principles I followed to find he didn’t. His disciples see him as some kind of saint-like Sherlock Holmes. And that is an opportunity!

THIS--thank you!
Most Welcome! I thought you might appreciate that part.🤬🤡s

Cheers SuZQ! Thankfully, I'm blessed to know CNI the way I do. It insulates me from a lot.
Whew! The Truth, Sam.
Ditto. It's awful, but it's also good to be able to name it, try to understand it, and focus on a direction to take.

Great article! It confirmed what I was thinking.
That this article has only a few responses shows how ignorant or incurious ppl are about CNI. We largely have the APA to thank for that.
I never mind well-deserved APA 🤬 but interest is strong & most are shy talking psych.
