October 3, 2018 from an article in THE ATLANTIC by Adam Serwer, Staff Writer. Dare you read what follows?

I was given a link to this article by an Answermug friend in answer to a question I asked. I read every word. I dare you to do the same.

'THE CRUELTY IS THE POINT. President trump and his supporters find community by rejoicing in the suffering of those they hate and fear."

What is addressed in that article are the "many photos of white men grinning as they witness together atrocities being committed against those they hate and fear. The cruelty makes them feel good proud happy and makes them feel closer together to witness it as a group. Male cruelty toward women is a bonding mechanism and a vehicle for intimacy through contempt"

It is a rather long article and I've simply excerpted a bit. But now I finally understand why dumb don has such a devoted following. Cruelty brings joy and bonding among them. Nothing can put them asunder since what they have always cherished is now a 24/7 reality. The base will never leave dumb don as long as he keeps delivering cruelty.

I shall be slow to absorb this awful fact but I will no longer question the why. Cruelty must be seductive to those who enjoy the suffering of others. There are millions of you out there and I am afraid of every single one of you.

    Again, Why does the left believe attacking Trump supports will help them win the election?  It will not cause on supporter to abandon Trump. 


    I hate not one. I do not fear anyone. I do not want anyone harmed.

    What I said is true m2c. In supporting him you support cruelty. I am afraid of you and others like you since cruelty is not my cuppa tea. I do not know of any reasonable human being who enjoys cruelty..either delivery it or receiving it. I found it shocking that some thrive on it. Sad. Terrifying.

    I can just as easily claim any suppporting a Dem are supporting cruelty.

    Partial birth abortion is incredibly cruel. Abortion is cruel. 

    Allowing illegals in this country to work under the table, to be underpaid and abused in the work place is also cruel. To allow the practice to drive down wages. (I think the employers should be charged)  Is cruel. 

    I think passing gun laws that prevent people in large cities with tremendous crime from defending themselves and their families is very cruel to those law abiding people.

    Gov healthcare which says says 80 yr old Gma with a heart issue does not get a heart transplant...she gets a pain pill. (Obama words) 90 yr old Gpa with prostate cancer does not get treatment... (Bloomberg words)  This is cruelty. 

    People are dying in CA streets. They are poor with mental and substance abuse issues. Why do they not have healthcare to help them with these health problems? Why is CA not helping these people they certainly qualify for CA medicaid? This is cruelty to me. This post was edited by my2cents at February 22, 2020 7:51 AM MST
