Don't post this stuff anymore if you are unable to handle the criticism.

Now the religious right is holding religious prayer meetings in the US Senate chamber to cast out Satan. WTF is happening with this government. "When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross". Sinclair Lewis http://www.alternet.org/belief/religious-right-government

The Santa Claus myth comes down from Siberian Shamanism in which the tribal shaman gave out Amanita muscaria mushrooms to his/her tribal members. Flying reindeer are common hallucinations.

I don't know why this stuff is posted here. There seems to be an agenda on the part of the OP.

Really? Then who will print money? Your local bank?

You missed my point, entirely.

In the intro to Hannah Arendt's 'The Origins of Totalitarianism' I found this remark.

Emotional suppression/character armoring is not a natural trait, but is caused by rigid child rearing/abuse, trauma, indoctrination, authoritarianism and propaganda. There is no easy way out of it. All the energetic qigong practices will not save anyone, but only magnifies the problem. https://www.amazon.com/Drama-Gifted-Child-Search-Revised/dp/0465016901/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1481044207&sr=1-1&keywords=drama+of+the+gifted+child+by+alice+miller

I am aware of that and you need not remind me of such. Further, to blame corporate fascism as a separate phenomenon is missing the point in that the roots are in everyone of us. Most have no interest in Reich's work which was a groundbreaking indictment of the roots of fascism or the writings of Ian Kershaw, Sinclair Lewis, Richard Hofstadter and Hannah Arendt (The Banality of Evil). https://www.amazon.com/Mass-Psychology-Fascism-Wilhelm-Reich/dp/0374508844/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1481041444&sr=1-1&keywords=mass+psychology+of+fascism https://www.amazon.com/Origins-Totalitarianism-Hannah-Arendt/dp/0156701537/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1481043259&sr=1-1&keywords=hannah+arendt

Corporate fascism! Expect to see more under Trump! Corporate fascism is but one aspect of authoritarianism. Emotional fascism is the root whereby emotions are suppressed and armored. Jack booted storm troopers are the expression of.

I heard about this so called plan back in the 60's and have yet to see any fruition of such. Please refrain from insinuating that I or anyone else posting here are weak minded unaware fools.

He is worried the communists are going to take over.

Much of the tribal land borders federal land and national parks. Grand Canyon, Yellow Stone, Monument Valley, Yosemite, Great Smoky Mountains and so forth. These treasures are untouchable!

You seem to have an Alinsky fetish.

I don't deny historical fact in this case, but Trump is stepping out of line and is not the president yet.

We are discussing Trump, not Carter.

It appears the Army Corp of Engineers has denied a permit to continue pipeline construction. http://www.rawstory.com/2016/12/breaking-standing-rock-protesters-celebrate-as-army-corps-of-engineers-halts-dapl-project/

The College Football Playoff selections came out this morning and my alma mater is in! The two winners face off for the national championship. Should be fun! Clemson vs. Ohio State Fiesta Bowl Washington vs. Alabama Peach Bowl

What is being left out of this discussion is that diplomacy is a complex delicate art which can and will have consequences both positive and negative.

He is the President-elect and in no way can represent this country until he is sworn in, January 28th.

Trump does not represent this country until the end of January. I would suggest that one such as yourself not overlook the past history of his cabinet picks. E.g. Jeff Sessions and why he was not confirmed as a Federal judge. But according to your previous comments one should just wait and see until it is too late. https://www.washingtonpost.com/posteverything/wp/2016/11/22/my-testimony-about-jeff-sessionss-racist-remarks-kept-him-from-becoming-a-judge/?utm_term=.6696d3353a6d

In terms of normalizing Trump's behavior whether it is via the media, Trump's surrogates or the average person, I would recommend Hannah Arendt's works on the banality of evil in which she posits examples of.
