The Left’s Propaganda Machine
- Tucker Carlson once said that “almost everything the left says these days is projection. They accuse you of exactly what they’re doing.”
- The latest leftist trope against conservatives is the accusation that Trump supporters are members of a cult.
- Robert Jay Lifton, a psychiatrist who taught at Harvard Medical School, wrote a paper titled “Cult Formation” in the early 1980s where he spelled out three characteristics common to all destructive cults
- charismatic leader
- A process of coercive persuasion or thought reform
- Economic, sexual, and other exploitation of group members
- Shunning
- Russian assets
Consider the monolithic thinking promoted by the left.
- There is little room for dissent or discussion about the value of preserving life within the womb within the Democratic Party, especially when coupled with the lockstep positions on guaranteed health care, open borders, gun control, climate change, and LGBTQ rights
- The Democratic Party has a goon squad to shut down dissent
Frank Miele, the retired editor of the Daily Inter Lake in Kalispell, Montana, is a columnist for RealClearPolitics.com.
- In 2016, Trump peeled away mostly white blue-collar voters from the Democratic Party and thus secured his victory
- Trump has demonstrated the power to persuade voters to rethink their entire political philosophy, using harsh truth and direct talk to convince Americans to take an honest look at what their "dear leaders" have been telling them
