I started talking about this in another thread with another user, but there's something suspicious with all the Anti-Trump and anti-right postings on Movie Chat. Some of the same accounts virtually spam this site with low-quality Anti-Trump content.
Does this seem like "natural" behavior to you? Or does it seem obsessive, and even suspicious?
Without conspiracy theories you have nothing. You seem stupid and very gullible because you believe in anything regardless if there is evidence or not. A man who falls for everything stands for nothing.
By the way... You addressed the first item on this list yesterday but not the others. Why? Show me that you are not in a cult.
Signs that MAGAs are in a cult.
1. Absolute authoritarianism without accountability.
2. Zero tolerance for criticism or questions.
3. Lack of meaningful financial disclosure regarding budget.
4. Unreasonable fears about the outside world that often involve evil conspiracies and persecutions.
5. A belief that former followers are always wrong for leaving and there is never a legitimate reason for anyone else to leave.
6. Abuse of members.
7. Records, books, articles, or programs documenting the abuses of the leader or group.
8. Followers feeling they are never able to be “good enough."
9. A belief that the leader is right at all times.
10. A belief that the leader is the exclusive means of knowing “truth” or giving validation.
I know that you are a pussy but try not to runaway this time.
You're trying to hijack this thread after I already gave you a full explanation as to why the very first item on your list was false. I refer you to the posts I already made.
Let's try this again. You addressed the first item on this list yesterday but not the others. Why? Show me that you are not in a cult. Why do you continue to refuse to address this issue?

top tip :
Everytime you post "Let's try this again." it comes off as irritating and condescending and vastly reduces your chances of getting your correspondent to "try again" , and thats before even we get onto whatever it is you're trying to get them to try again.
No maga is going to want to go through your arbitrary "definition of a cult" that you googled and start justifying why that not them. If you want that list to have any meaning YOU should be the one going through it and finding examples of how it does apply to them.
Also , yes , you are totally hijacking this guys thread with a discussion that is not only off topic but you state already has its own thread .
You have been guilty of stalking people across threads and yelling at hem to answer your questions before. Haven't any moderators warned you about this? Its gotta be against the rules of most forums.

Uh, let's dismantle #1 in your list, and let your claims all fall.
Is Trump an "absolute authoritarian"? Because it seems to me that if he was, he did a pretty horrible job at it.
After all, he couldn't finish the border wall after Congress failed to fund it. Not so "authoritarian" there.
He was investigated by the FBI, Congress, and Special Counsel(!). They didn't find he committed crimes, but the fact that those investigations went on make Trump seem like he was not an "authoritarian" there.
The media regularly published fake and misleading news about Trump. Did he shut down newsrooms across the country as a result? After all, even an "authoritarian" could so something as simple as that, but the fact that Trump is alleged to be an "absolute authoritarian", this would 100% be the case. So did Trump do it?
Nope.
Instead, he sent out mean tweets about the media.
So this idea that Trump is an "absolute authoritarian" is simply leftist doomfiction.
Using standard english comprehension I personally would infer from the post that:
The list of "Signs that MAGAs are in a cult." does not refer to Trumps presidency and his governing over the US population.
It means Trump followers are in the cult of Trump , so point #1 "absolute authoritarian" refers to Trump controlling his fans , not the senate or the population at large.
So if Trump declares 2020 was rigged - y'all have to believe it.
If Trump declares all MSM media is fake news - y'all have to believe it.
It means Trump followers are in the cult of Trump , so point #1 "absolute authoritarian" refers to Trump controlling his fans , not the senate or the population at large.
I think your explanation is bunk.
Authoritarianism refers to a political system. "Absolute authoritarianism" most certainly refers to a ruler who governs with an iron grip. It most certainly doesn't refer to a populist leader who delights crowds but who also holds zero power over people.
So if Trump declares 2020 was rigged - y'all have to believe it.
If Trump declares all MSM media is fake news - y'all have to believe it.
Uh, except there's another option, which is that we the people independently came to the conclusion that the mainstream media is fake news, so Trump is merely voicing what we already thought.
I had considered that yes, more regarding the "2020 rigged" than the msm thing as its an easier example.
In The Real World (meaning inside the US but outside maga club and additionally the other 7 billion people outside the US) the idea that the 2020 election was rigged is a silly idea that almost no-one believes.
yet INSIDE maga club 100% of magas believe it was rigged . How do you explain this discrepancy in proportions:
"Almost nobody" versus "100% of magas" ?
Could you provide me with source about those figures you are providing (e.g. "100% of magas")? Of, if you're just making it up, let me know that as well.
sure, I posted a "survey" thread here on this site and not one of them would concede the election might not be fixed.
Well , full disclosure, ONE did . But I rounded up.
Lol, ok. I guess I got to give it to you for trying to collect data. However, next time you might want to preface it by saying something like
"yet INSIDE maga club [not quite] 100% of magas [-supporters on Movie Chat who chose to respond to my informal message on the forums, but not all of them actually said it was "rigged", and there were only about 10 people who responded] believe it was rigged ."

I guess some people feel that the right has gone too far right, and even worse that Trump is the worst choice for president in the history of presidential candidates due to him being a self obsessed moron with no knowledge of politics or economics.
They feel the need to vent about this , or maybe try to make Trumpers see the light.
Basically this guy is on "the world stage" being a total assclown and making a laughing stock of the USA literally every time he speaks is "news" or "current affairs" and people are gonna talk about it.
But yes I agree with you , there are some posters who are a little bit obsessive.
But , you know , Trump is taking a giant shit on the political system just by being involved in it - why wouldnt people get obsessive about that?
If trump made one change:
STOP LYING
I think people would see him as a normal candidate that they either like or dont like and thats fair enough. The "obsession" or TDS or hate or whatever would go away .
People are angry that this guy thinks he can just get up on a podium and spout total bullshit to get idiots to rally around him.
and he can , and he does
Also theses "obsessives" are just fascinated that the trump fans either
a) cant see the lies
or
b) dont mind as long as its what they want to hear .
clue: its B
and not only that trumpers will defend his lies to the death
e.g.
Trump says election rigged
next thing 100% of Trump fans believe this and will argue that point
Not a single Trump fans will say "Yeah I like Trump , I vote Trump , but he was wrong about the election"
Everybody outside the maga gang , worldwide , can see that its bullshit , but Trump fans WONT see it .
Its like "the emperors new clothes" story.
This CULT LIKE behavior is what makes some anti Trumpers so called obsessive.
No Knowledge of Politics or Economics?? Fuck you.. Where the fuck were you young Moviechatterer during 2016?? Well?? How about it?? Let's do this!! Under 3.5 years of Trump, we had no new wars, no inflation, gas prices at $1.75 a gallon VS where they're at now in 2024, a secured border, no shortage of food or diapers like again, under Biden at one point, Peace & Prosperity and with all of that, why wouldn't you want that again?? As for Trump saying the election was rigged?? It was and I find it fascinating how a Poll was taken after the 2020 Election that showed 71% of America didn't believe Biden won that election legitimately and that's rather telling, wouldn't you say?? 71%!! That's basically almost 3/4 of the world didn't believe the 2020 Election was legit?? Who's right and who's wrong??
That wasnt due any sort of insight or intervention by Trump , that was just the heading the ship was cruising on when he sat in the captains chair. Obviously!
he gets asked:
"Given China is a major trading partner with tour largest imbalance, how can we better institutionalize Trade policy and national security"
then he gets asked
"child care is more expensive than rent for working families and is costing the ecomomy 122bn /yr , so what specific piece of legislation will you advance?"
Trump has no chance of even understanding those questions let alone answering them
First, I think it's safe to say that the right has not "gone too far right", but the left has "gone too far left". Simply look at how the left's policy positions have changed over the last 20 years. Heck, some of Obama's positions from the early 2000s could very well be considered "right wing hate" by today's left.
Second, it's more than just Anti-Trumpers "venting" that I'm talking about. Rather, it's a consistent effort over a period of many months to flood the boards with Anti-Right, low-quality content.
They have more idle time to invent stories. Conservatives have jobs. They also seem to have more flexible ethics. The Dems desperately want a Harris win so they can get more free stuff; that 'free stuff' that we tax payers provide them.
Here's one of my go to betting/odds sites from today.
There are several sites that report similar statistics, the list of "payers" and "takers" has been fairly consistent for several years, if not decades.
The link that I posted included some interesting data that surprised me. I don't know if it has a different methodology... maybe it reflects economic changes in the last few years... maybe it reflects the population from the 2020 Census... maybe it's in the link but I'm too lazy to dive into it...
I was surprised to see the following states as "takers"
Arizona (by a lot!)
Florida
Illinois
Texas
Vermont
Rhode Island
I was surprised by some of the "payers"
Utah
Nevada
Payers that I thought would be paying more:
New York
Minnesota
Colorado
It's obsessive and disturbing that the man who Hosted The APPRENTICE for 12 Seasons gets this many pinhead liberals worked up over a whole lot of nothing, but whatever, I have 23 of them on ignore and it's wonderful!!
There's a die-hard handful of Far-Left lunatics here who seem compelled to "help" their cause by posting unhinged Leftist rants. I don't know if this site is popular enough to warrant the use of Chinese pro-Democrat bots, though.
Well, in fairness, during his first term he did impose himself as Dictator For Life, abolished the constitution, started multiple wars and kicked a puppy.
