General Discussion

This is a great post and I will bookmark it but I believe that Trump supporters are ignorant and lack critical thinking skills rather than being stupid. Granted, there are a bunch of stupid people in the world, but we are being fed through social media and MSM and zillions of bots what to think and "believe."

The Evangelicals and other religious leaders loud voices have drowned out reality with their "belief system" in the other worldly savior and all knowing being. Then, they make up stories and become the mouthpiece of the all knowing being. Let's not forget "forgiveness of all sins."

Next, add in the truly evil people in the world--sociopaths and psychopaths--seeking to destroy everything and everyone that gets in their way.

All of us are being systemically programmed by all of the lies that are being shoved at us in sound bytes. The gullible believe and the not-gullible work hard to prove truth and facts. Critical thinking skills need to be taught and that is missing; particularly, as we downgrade the need for education, which has been happening for quite some time.

What a mess!
