Last time I checked Nancy, Chuck and AOC, as well as Fetterman were still members of the democrat party.

how can the left simultaneously be terrible at messaging and also be a cult. I'm confused.Hugh Freaking Dillon is currently out of the office, returning sometime in the fall0

I do not think Dems are terrible at messaging. Clinton and Obama campaigns delivered powerful messaging. Kamala's campaign was awful. They blew it. I do not think it helped the Dems that Biden presented as a senile old man protecting a scandalous son.0

Lerxst1992 said:Halifax2TheMax said:Congratulations. You’re in a cult.
MAGA is a cult. I should know. I was raised in one
In Trump’s world, you follow him at his word or you’re an enemy — a fact Canadians are quickly learning.
I know a cult when I see one. Not because I’ve studied them through flashy documentaries or deep-diving podcasts. I was born into one. Cults are my family history, imprinted on my DNA, living in the very marrow of my bones.
When I see the fervent devotion around Donald Trump and his MAGA crowd, I know exactly what I am looking at. The controlled values and beliefs, the unwavering devotion to a powerful leader, the deep suspicion of outsiders — I see the writing on the wall and it says “cult.”
In Trump’s world, you follow him at his word or you’re an enemy — a fact Canadians are quickly learning. Not only is the President quick to make an enemy of his allies, but he’s also eager to sow division within his own country. Trump himself has famously said: “We have the outside enemy, and then we have the enemy from within.”
Who, exactly, is the enemy from within? The leftist pussy-hat wearing feminists? Black Lives Matter protesters? Parents of children with autism? The media, who are simply attempting to report on facts and are being barred from attending critical press events?
I know what it’s like to be the enemy from within. In my family, I was born the enemy, disregarded because of my status as the daughter of a second wife. In a Christian sect that doesn’t believe in divorce, the daughter of a second wife is sure to be tarnished the moment her lungs breathe air.
This made me deeply suspicious, leading to years of research into my father’s religion. Eventually, I became an investigative journalist and was the first to expose the rampant sexual abuse and exploitation within the secretive sect. Now, the FBI is investigating the group.
Trump’s political cult isn’t that different from a religious cult. He demands blind devotion, and when you question him, you’re cast off. Anyone who criticizes Trump is labelled as having “Trump Derangement Syndrome,” a real term that he used in a January 2025 Truth Social post.
In Trump’s world, if your values and ideology do not align with his, then you need not apply for MAGA membership. Are you an immigrant, a member of the LGBTQ2S+ community, proudly Black or Indigenous, or a woman in need of an abortion? Well, there is no space for you on the Trump bandwagon.
However, if you’re a serial cheater, a billionaire, “an abuser of women,” or plagued by countless ethical and legal controversies — there’s nothing to see here.
In a cult, everything is black and white, and the leader sets the standard for what is true. Question the leader and you’ll find yourself outside of the group faster than you can say Mike Pence. In what world is Trump’s obsession with groupthink, his way or the highway, not a high-control movement?
MAGA is not just a political base, it’s an overzealous group, who are bound by loyalty tests, rigid conformity and a refusal to think critically. The MAGA cult does not examine within themselves what is right or wrong, they outsource that job to their Savior.
There’s no weighing his words against fact, science, or even human decency — because to do that would be to risk exile, excommunication, the loss of a community, and the identity that defines them. This isn’t just a political movement, it’s a dangerously indoctrinated collective.
Donald Trump has made an enemy of millions — he’s said so himself. How many of Trump’s enemies will rise up and demand to be seen and heard? The thing with high-control groups: They underestimate the strength of those they call worthless.
Congratulations. You’re in a cult.
The left is a cult. In the lefts world, you follow them at their word or you’re an enemy — a fact everyone is quickly learning.
