All this Trump worship is merely the facade for the truth. There are people who are not riding the future train. They don't want to ride this train for some valid reasons. The future has been described to them as a place where nobody would want to go.

Here's what they have been told.

First Reason: American exceptionalism is gone.

They have been told that the future world, American exceptionalism, will be gone, and America will be no different than many first world countries. A world government will outlaw war, and we will live together in a peaceful, if less free world. This worldview is commonly expressed as desirable among third world nations. You hear this often at the United Nations organization. People who will accept domination to avoid conflict will want to do this. The E.U. was founded as a way to level incomes and avoid future wars. MAGA people are disgusted by this worldview and want no part of it.

Second Reason: God is dead.

There is no room for traditional God-fearing people in this new world. They see the rise of technologies that they barely comprehend and see their children following fads that make no sense to them. Even their most traditional activities, such as voting, have been taken over by computers that they don't understand or trust. The "everything you need to know is in the Bible" adherents have no place to live.
This gives rise to the anti science sentiments. Because of this, MAGA has no trust in anyone except Trump. He tells their "truths" to them, and they love him for it.

Third Reason: Miscegenation and the blood of America.

This is very controversial, to say the least. The comments about poisoning the blood of America by letting in refugees in large numbers. The talk about "vermin" eradication is incredibly racist. Even MAGA folks stammer in their defense of Trump when they see this hate speech. That is racism plain and simple. MAGA, by and large, won't talk about their hatred of those people who are not like them, but it's there. White Nationalists groups are attracted to MAGA because it is fertile ground for recruiting. This racism is obvious and is the Achilles heel of the MAGA movement.

Conclusion: Love America or Leave America or Fix America.
Modernism or love of the future is largely a liberal concept. Highly educated people debating nuances of thought are an academic playground.
Traditionalism is a love of the past, which is a largely conservative playground. Traditional literature does not require highly educated people to participate.
The clash of Traditionalist and Modernism is ages old.
Extremists from both sides turn a natural phenomenon into politicization. This mass consumption of outrage is making America into a tribal country. This is the mantra of the love it or leave it group.

Well, how do you Fix America?
Fortunately, the answer is simple and staring at us. Democracy is that answer. Negotiations about the course of the future are supremely important. So how do people who are uneducated compete with experts?
Step 1.
America used to have one of the best educational systems in the world. The rise in dissatisfaction is proportional to the decay in our educational systems. Better educated people are better at adapting to changes than others. I don't rule out history or religious studies from this statement.
Higher education is unaffordable to many. Perhaps we as a nation should revisit the notion of universities becoming profit centers where only rich people can attend.
Step 2
Demand that everyone has high-speed internet available to them free or very cheap. Access to knowledge is paramount.
Step 3
Monitor the politics of people offering knowledge. I don't mean suppress knowledge. What I mean is that we have to separate knowledge from propaganda. We need to suppress propaganda. It is toxic.
Step 4
Promote the development of Large Language Model A. I. These services can do a wonderful job of education as long as they are not misused.

@0xDavecryps You are sitting on top of a mountain of Gold, and you can't find it. Go live where you can afford it, then invest in something that has value and own it and keep it and defend it. Is that a secret?

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@PaigeSully88 I have a Diesel Truck that costs me 300.00 to fill the tank. I also have a Model Y Tesla which costs me about 20.00 to "fill the tank". You already know which one I drive everyday.

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@JohnCleese Don't forget the burning alive. That is truly special. One of the greatest contributions made by Muslims was the invention of marshmallows.

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@MAGA_Patriot__ @SenSanders He stole from merchants, noblemen, the church and anyone who owned anything that he could give away to the mob. That's why the poor loved him. No difference now. Those who have nothing love scoundrels. The definition of a Democrat is an "Unmugged" Republican.

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@Osint613 Why does he want to kill the "Golden Goose" so badly. He really believes he is a modern day "Robin Hood".

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@Sanatani_sevak I am a bigger victim than you are.

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@JohnCleese No, it is not. Everything and I mean everything is allowed if Allah approves of it. There is nothing that you can imagine that is not just fine if Allah approves it. That's what makes Islam inherently dangerous. That has been apparent for 1400 years.

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@Rakeshhkumaar Opportunities require people to take them. Most people are too lazy to even pick them up let alone use them. It's much better to whine about your "Bad Luck" and wallow in your misery. You're like the drowning man who wants to drag everyone down with them.

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@BladeoftheS They invest and hold value, and it appreciates over time. Nobody is forcing you to buy anything at all. You are such a poor little victim of the system. I have the world's smallest violin to play for you.

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@lilbabygandhi Europe arrogance never hits bottom.

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@rogertansey You are correct, you do not have a brain.

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

The zero/sum game again. Don't you ever get tired of this nonsense. SOMEONE DOE NOT HAVE TO LOSE SO ANOTHER CAN WIN!!!!!!
Drive this into your peabrain. Everyone can win. You are losing because you are sitting on top of a money machine called the USA economy and you don't know how to operate the machine. You are too dumb or too lazy to learn how to pull the lever to print money for yourself.
How can anyone feel sorry for you. You can't tax someone else to make you rich. You really don't understand very much at all.

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@JohnCleese Her message is clear. The U.K. is suicidal.

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@JohnCleese What should the epitaph read concerning the once great British Civilization?

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@PramilaJayapal Do you mean the insider traders like yourself?

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@JohnCleese Don't you know that people that are not of the "Book", that is Islam, Judaism and Christians are not tolerated.

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@amelia_tweetz Wow so naive. You really think that people want to work? That's a joke, isn't it? Most people are incredibly lazy, uncurious, mediocre at best and idiots at worst. There are a few people who have careers and want to work, but the exception doesn't prove the rule.

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

What nonsense. Nobody will stop you from working and doing what you want to do. You seem to think that A.I. is going to stop you from doing what you want to do. It is not. The issue is that your work will not be tied to your income. Your work will be optional.

I know many of you can't see it. Many others do see it very clearly. It is not our fault that you don't see it. Just because for all of recent human history, a person's labor was directly correlated to their income, does not mean that the future has to follow the past. Instead of just giving up and planning for A.I. domination of your life.

Instead try to imagine a world where things start to become free. All you want, free. No work necessary to earn money to buy something. Instead, it is just free.

Impossible you say, but all of human history shows how wrong you are. Before money, and so-called modern life, people in small groups wandered about picking up food. They were hunter gatherers and they lived their lives off free things. So getting something for free is alien to modern people like us. We just can't imagine something for free.

What if A.I. and robots did the creation, hunting and gathering for us and then just gave it to us. Impossible you say, well that's how humans lived for at least 100,000 years before villages and government took over. We all lived on free stuff.

If A.I. robots give you what you want for nothing, then won't you take it?

Are you looking for a gotcha, or a catch. That is modern thinking. The gotcha of money. What good is money if you get what you want for free? This is what Elon means when world of Abundance. Will it happen instantly, no, but It will happen.

The issue is what becomes free and when. Essentials first, food, water, energy become free. Eventually more things up the chain of needs becomes free. Eventually all things. That is a way off, but the direction is clear.

Oh well, you can go on believing that the future must mimic the past and join up with Bernie and fear the future and try your best to stop it. However, you should know what happens when you try to stop the future. Don't you?

[Eric Thorson @MakeGodLaugh]

@ewarren Everyone lines up for a piece of the "Golden Goose". Democrats are so stupid that it almost is beyond belief. How can anyone buy into this nonsense. Let's make everyone equally miserable, then what?
