Trump: The Ultimate Troll's Troll


A MASTER of creating and exploiting a Reflexive Environment...
A reflexive environment is one where everybody has to talk about a certain thing. That thing is going to be very polarizing, and there are either going to be one, or two, right ways to talk about it. Usually they're going to be diametrically opposed to one another, and that means it's a dialectical weapon.
 
When George Soros famously shorted the the pound sterling in like '92 or whatever, which led to him writing "The Alchemy of Finance" where he said that "Alchemy is not interested in truth like the scientific method, it's interested in operational success." The method he said that they used to do the Alchemy of Finance was reflexivity. The idea is that you start jinning up an idea and make the idea become true because everybody starts talking about it and believing it in a particular way. So "the current thing" takes place in a reflexive environment (often Social Media).

On praising your negotiation "adversaries" (like Kim Jong Il) once an offer has been made:

The "modelthinkers" image is BS. I have no integrity unless I change my mind and agree with you? What if I say it's the other way around and that YOU have no integrity unless you listen to my factual arguments and change YOUR mind?

Though apparently they think people should be changing their minds due to the presence of a "permission structure" and that a sound argument supported by facts is unnecessary. Such arguments are "pointless". That's definitely what you think. Proven by your labeling of the disinformation cesspool Twit-Turd a "permission structure".

Funny, the model is exactly how white guilt-pride thing works. You do something stupid because it makes you feel good about yourself... and everyone else around you affirms it. The "permission structure" has been built.

Your so proud that you're morally superior enough to denounce your entire culture... yep, dumb!

It doesn't work because it is imaginary.

I don't.

They don't. Because I don't intentionally do stupid things. I don't do anything stupid within the context of "White Guilt Pride" at all. Because "white guilt pride" is imaginary.

FYI, the role of a president is to lead with integrity, diplomacy, and respect for both domestic and international relations. Trolling behavior undermines these qualities and creates unnecessary tensions. That you think this is a POSITIVE quality for a president to have is proof that you're the one who likes stupid things being done.

d0n0ld tRump does something stupid because it makes you feel good about yourself... and everyone else around you affirms it. The "permission structure" has been built.

I'm going to mention some major issues facing our country and ask whether you believe the United States has made progress, stood still or lost ground in each during the last four years, since Joe Biden became president. ’ll give you MY Opinion right off the Bat!
I personally think that Not Only did the USA loose ground but the lost ground was on MAJOR ISSUES!
Lets face the facts, the U.S.A. has lost ground in six Major areas over the past four years that Joe Biden “Acted” as our President. And they including the Federal Debt , Legal Immigration, the gap between the Wealthy and less Well-off , the Economy , the United States’ position in the world and in Serious Crime. And we can add Race relations to that long list as well. Pluralities also say the nation has fallen behind in six other areas: Education, Terrorism, Trade Relations with other Countries, Race Relations, the Nation’s Infrastructure and Energy.

In fact more Americans believe the country has stood still on two issues -- the Economy and the situation for Black People -- than think it has also lost ground on Healthcare, National Defense and the Military, and Taxes, with relatively few seeing any progress in any of these areas.

And as for the Presidential Transition after Biden’s Worthless, and Inept Candidate Vice President, Kamala Harris, Lost the Election to Donald Trump., where is the “Peaceful Transition”? This team, this worthless Team has given NO Unity, and Nothing Peaceful to this country whatsoever!
This Country under the Biden Leadership no made any improvement during Biden’s presidency are the Nation’s Infrastructure, Trade Relations with Other Countries, the Economy, National Defense and the Military, the United States’ position in the world, Terrorism, Crime, Healthcare, Education, and or Race Relations. The only thing that this administration seemed to care about was the Situation for LGBTQ People, and “Climate Controls” Like telling us that we should not, and can not use anymore Plastic Straws,. Under Biden, Democrats has lost more ground than it has gained on the Federal Debt. And listening to that Moronic speech last night, you would think that we were losing a Genius of a President, instead of the Demented Sicko that we are FINALLY GETTING RID OF.

So Donald Trump is “A THREAT TO DEMOCRACY” and NO BODY can't even tell me WHY? . Thank you as that's all I needed to know
Donald Trump “Never” received a fair trial and has been more recently been made an official convicted felon. No time in jail, no fines, no community service, he's just a convicted felon because the democrats say so. So how does that make him a threat to democracy?
So, I'm just going to kick back & enjoying watching Donald Trump’s Inauguration on Monday, and watch the Democrats, and Progressive’s melt down!
Isn't it Funny, Donald Trump is a Threat to Democracy, and Biden Gives The Medal of Freedom to George Soros!
SO! I guess that he’s a threat to democracy and you can't even tell me why. Thank you as that's all I needed to know

Everything in your mind is imaginary, Derv... even the "repressive" thought formation elements associated with guilt-pride. It makes you, like Oedipus, "blind" to it. It's an Oedipal process.... now engrained.

And unlike you, I will acknowledge my own 'permission structures'.

Joe Conservative said...

Trump can't turn it around in four years. We're dealing with a problem 60 years in the making.

Trump's a threat to The National Endowment for Democracy (NED), the IRI and the NDI... all CIA cutouts operating under the rubric of "promoting Democracy" for large global corporations and opening new markets for their products. THAT is why they hate him. He's a threat to "their" concept of Democracy (market share penetration).

The progressives are even trying to violently disrupt Marco Rubio's confirmation hearing. Sadly I can hardly remember when this was the United States of America

Promoting democracy is good for world peace. Corporations can sell their product in non-democracies. There were McDonald's in Russia. Your claims are BS. "They" hate him because he's a fascist that hates democracy and attempted a coup.

Joe Conservative said...

Marco should lead a CIA Team and go recover Elio Gonzales now that Cuba is no longer a terrorist nation...

Joe Conservative said...

They hate him because they've been brain damaged with white guilt-pride ideology.

The Prophet Dervish Z Sanders said...

You hate d0n0ld tRump? I ask because you're the one who is brain damaged with delusions of imaginary white guilt-pride ideology.

An affliction that affects Germans over Nazism can't affect Southern whites over slavery? Who knew...
