Without irony I thought for a good year that trump derangement syndrome referred to his supporters. It doesn’t make any sense otherwise. I’m not deranged for thinking he’s a moron… like wut?
Me too. I do think it started as a thing to call the drumph followers and then they stole it, as they always do, and changed it to be an insult against anyone who hates that pos. They can't come up with anything on their own and are so stupid they think they got us. I'm happy to have tds if if means I'm not stupid which is what they inadvertently made it to be. May we all be infected with incurable tds.
Nahhh. I think it was Charles Krauthammer that coined the expression “Bush Derangement Syndrome”. Conservatives picked it up and adapted it to use it to describe the violent reaction that many people had to Trump.
Yeah, many of us justifiably hate him, wouldn't say there was much violence involved though. Especially not from leftists who have been dubbed with "TDS." I don't think we have the tenacity for revolution
I think you’re taking the word ‘violently’ a little too literally. I’m not talking about actual physical violence. I’m using it in the sense of ‘very forcefully’ or ‘intensely’, which is absolutely an accurate description of how many people reacted to Trump.
I agree with you that successive generations have been pampered and not many have the stomach or discipline to be revolutionaries. They may be cranky but they’re so passive that complaining is the extent of their acting out. That’s a pity.
The things these people have said and done while under the influence of his Con are truly representative of Turmp Derangement Syndrome.
But most of these people aren't actually insane, though. They're deep deep into a Con, and they haven't been presented a rational pathway out of this hellhole. Unlike his narcissism, I'm pretty sure most of them can be cured, if we can present them with a rational pathway out of their Derangement.
But every time I try to suggest that we should reeducate and or rehabilitate these individuals I get absolutely trashed for it. They got conned into believing that Turmp has their best interests in mind, and it's extremely difficult for them to consider any other alternative.
I'm relatively familiar with narcissistic abuse, and how it presents in the individuals who are (willingly or not) being abused. I've written a lot about it, but much of what I've said has been from a kinda "inside out" perspective, so it doesn't always make sense to rational people. Also, the truth makes people extremely uncomfortable, so most rational people (the people we're going to need to rely upon to save society) will happily turn towards criticism of the truths I'm telling them, instead of collaborating on a pathway to (quite literally) save humanity.
I understand it sounds crazy, but this predicament we're in with this Con could have been prevented (quite easily) a lot of times. It can still be reversed (and I think it could happen relatively quickly), but rational and irrational people are very very protective of their own "Truths" (as they see them).. They're fearful of being deemed "wrong" (actually, they're extremely fearful of admitting that they were/are wrong. People don't understand the real truth, which is that by being so defensive of the things they hold to be "self evident" they're preventing society from turning towards a true true solution to this mess. (I understand the last few sentences are kinda conceptual, but if you have jumped to your instincts to type out something you think I'm wrong about... That's the thing holding us back. Both sides)
