• Howdy Doody is an American children’s television program (with circus and Western frontier themes) that was created and produced by Victor F. Campbell and E. Roger Muir. It was broadcast on the NBC television network in the United States from December 27, 1947, until September 24, 1960." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howdy_Doody

Trump plays Tony Clifton

Trump as entertainment, Howdy Doody. Tony Clifton acts entertain EVERYONE who mocks and joins the total mockery. Mocking is not resisting Trump. Mocking Trump is joining MAGA values. Mocking into a mockery of MAGA. Media addiction itself is MAGA Trump.

What’s preventing a General Strike in the United States?

Even simpler than that. Why has there been NO Reddit end-user blackout about { Trump, MAGA, Fox News, Impeachment } since this all became a public crisis; June 16, 2015 - now almost 11 years ago.

Reddit community (commenting users) hasn’t done any kind of “Impeach Trump” blackout or uprising! Yet Reddit has gotten world press coverage over previous blackouts and protests. Why can’t Bluesky, Reddit, Internet social media users make World Wide Web front page news calling for Trump’s removal?

ANSWER: there is EXTREME brain rot, cults of Trump, on every media system. People can not get enough of the mocking, insulting, name-calling, fiction storytelling that Trump provides. We The People of World Wide Web are the problem! Trump is a symptom. RFK Jr is a symptom of a brain rot crisis of the population since year 2013.

See previous world wide coverage of Reddit protest blackouts:

1. https://www.9news.com.au/technology/reddit-content-blackout-users-start-content-blackout-on-one-of-the-worlds-most-popular-websites/2816d537-a301-48ad-ae40-4bf2a2506529 - Australia, Down Under coverage of Reddit user protesting in June 2023.

2. https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2012/1/18/websites-blackout-over-sopa-censorship Al Jazeera Middle East news coverage of Reddit protests in year 2012.

But the cult of commenting on Reddit and Bluesky can’t stand up to their own media addictions and see that Trump is a cult leader of Truth Social content / Elon Musk Twitter content addictions. Reddit community is not an opposition to brain rot and follows the anti-intellectual leadership of Trump.

Sure I like how the members of our species that cannot yet be turned are far from healthy members of our species. Like the main character is a alcoholic.

When I see statements like this, I kind of have to turn the question around.

Out of the over 8 billion people on the planet, can you name a person who is actually perfect? Who exactly is a “healthy member” of our species? And why are we not all following them and sharing what they have to teach?

A nation lead by a reality TV star and fanatics of television.

LOL amusement nation. Electing memes to leadership. Meme leaders, entertainers as leaders.

“Americans no longer talk to each other, they entertain each other. They do not exchange ideas, they exchange images. They do not argue with propositions; they argue with good looks, celebrities and commercials.” ― Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business.

Sparks outrage

That’s Trump MAGA power. Rage and outrage. We need reason thinking, not more outrage.

“Assessing dangerousness is different from making a diagnosis: it is dependent on the situation, not the person. Signs of likely dangerousness due to mental disorder can become apparent without a full diagnostic interview and can be detected from a distance, and one is expected to err, if at all, on the side of safety when the risk of inaction is too great.” ― Bandy X. Lee, The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President. Published October 3, 2017. PROLOGUE. Page 5.

“the public trust is also violated if the profession fails in its duty to alert the public when a person who holds the power of life and death over us all shows signs of clear, dangerous mental impairment. We should pause if professionals are asked to remain silent when they have seen enough evidence to sound an alarm in every other situation. When it comes to dangerousness, should not the president of a democracy, as First Citizen, be subject to the same standards of practice as the rest of the citizenry?” ― Bandy X. Lee, The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President. Published October 3, 2017. PROLOGUE. Page 5.

Organized bullying, protection racket, organized intimidation. Stress lording, fragmenting minds into Trump fandoms.

• “In Donald Trump, we have a frightening Venn diagram consisting of three circles: the first is extreme present hedonism; the second, narcissism; and the third, bullying behavior. These three circles overlap in the middle to create an impulsive, immature, incompetent person who, when in the position of ultimate power, easily slides into the role of tyrant, complete with family members sitting at his proverbial “ruling table.” Like a fledgling dictator, he plants psychological seeds of treachery in sections of our population that reinforce already negative attitudes.” ― Bandy X Lee, The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President. October 3, 2017. Page 44.

• Year 2014: “If previous authoritarian regimes were three parts violence and one part propaganda,” argues Igor Yakovenko, a professor of journalism at the Moscow State Institute of International Relations, “this one is virtually all propaganda and relatively little violence. Putin only needs to make a few arrests — and then amplify the message through his total control of television.”

Texan Rick Roderick, Professor

"And sure enough I found someone in Durham who had been… you know, a lot of North Carolina people go to the war, I found a young pilot and he said oh, that no, it was very exciting and then he went on to explain to me how the sights that they used in order to, you know, fire their smart bombs were just like the games in the arcade that he grew up with. He said, you know, no way in the world could he have had better practice than he got in those arcades to fire smart bombs. I mean, it had passed him by that the real had happened even though he was really there.

I talked to a woman who had been on the ground, in a jeep for most of it. And she went “Oh the desert is so big and the sand…”, she said, “…but I really didn’t get a feel for until I got home and saw what my husband had taped”. Why? Because the little individual actors sink into insignificance compared to the damn spectacle of the thing. The spectacle of it. … https://youtu.be/z0MUurcsVLs?t=1339 … I mean, when humans were less important than God we could understand because he built everything. When we are less important than a Nintendo we get confused. That’s when we start thinking that we are under siege. It’s when Billy says “Oh yes, you can kill mum and dad but leave the Nintendo”, then we are rightfully upset.

The postmodern trajectory leaves us in a situation where drawing the line between the real and the unreal is no longer merely philosophical but a practical day-to-day issue. See, this is what I want to drive home. We are not off in some fairy land, this is a practical day-to-day issue of figuring out what’s a simulation and what’s not. Is this guy really an insurance salesman or is he here to rob me? You know, I mean… this is no longer Cartesian doubt that one has to conjure up in a meditation. This is a wide radical doubt about the very ground beneath our feet and the nature of whether it’s real or not."

 Year 1993

Really puts the exclamation point on how much of a lie “Immigration Enforcement” is as public policy.

Trade war too!

But We The People are so addicted to the Trump mocking / total mockery Fox News HDTV… that we can’t be bothered to turn to nonfiction serious books that rot away since year 2019.

"What Cambridge Analytica observed was that when respondents were angry, their need for complete and rational explanations was also significantly reduced. In particular, anger put people in a frame of mind in which they were more indiscriminately punitive, particularly to out-groups. They would also underestimate the risk of negative outcomes. This led Cambridge Analytica to discover that even if a hypothetical trade war with China or Mexico meant the loss of American jobs and profits, people primed with anger would tolerate that domestic economic damage if it meant they could use a trade war to punish immigrant groups and urban liberals.” ― Christopher Wylie, Mindf*ck: Cambridge Analytica and the Plot to Break America, page 128, year 2019

All normalized now, hyper normal, super hyper normal. People meme away the USA. Trump is the most charming entertainer in all world history. PRESIDENT Tony Clifton, actor and performer for social networks and HDTV addict nation. With his buddy Elon Musk owning Twitter, the largest media influencer in all human history! Media ultra-star Donald Trump!

Friends identified Ramirez from a Facebook Live video of the arrest and alerted Duffy, who rushed home, grabbed her son’s birth certificate and called Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Facebook addicts under the thumb of billionaire media lords: { Trump / Musk / Mark Zuckerberg / Rupert Murdoch } media systems. Trump is a god of media content creation. Cloud computing “Sky Daddy”, Trump leads the world into meme ruin!

“The human brain can protect us from seeing and feeling what it believes may be too uncomfortable for us to tolerate. It can lead us to deny, defend, minimize, or rationalize away something that doesn’t fit our worldview.” ― Dr. Bandy X Lee, The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President.

"Russia-watcher Catherine Fitzpatrick, who documents Kremlin disinformation for InterpreterMag . com, says just as Moscow uses vague Internet laws to encourage self-censorship, trolls inhibit informed debate by using crude dialogue to change “the climate of discussion.” “If you show up at The Washington Post or New Republic sites, where there’s an article that’s critical of Russia, and you see that there are 200 comments that sound like they were written by 12-year-olds, then you just don’t bother to comment,” she says. “You don’t participate. It’s a way of just driving discussion away completely,” she adds. “Those kinds of tactics are meant to stop democratic debate, and they work.” - year 2014 https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2014/08/the-kremlins-troll-army/375932/

We The People, All of Us, Pluribus did not teach essential art interpretation. We did not teach symbolism self-awareness.

“Fabulously accurate interpretation of the symbolism of Both sides of the Great Seal of the United States. 1:13:09 Better than anything I have seen anywhere. This man has reached the objective. 1:13:50 Esoteric spirit that moved not only the people who drew that Great Seal, but the entire philosophy the early republic was based upon. And how utterly deplorable and regrettable and terrible it is that all of this has been virtually totally forgotten by our days. And that we have held, The American People, have held in their very hands, handed to them by people like Franklin and Jefferson and all kinds of others… One of the most splendid treasures of spiritual philosophy - applicable to all manner of human purposes. And we have discarded it. And we are running around like beggars, the world over, picking up crumbs from every kind of anarchists, Marxists, this thing, fascists, this thing that thing, all over the world. 1:14:50 All of which, put together, could never come close to the psychological spiritual wisdom that was given to us to begin with… and that we have simply forgotten about and thrown away. And how incredibly unfortunate and terrible this is. And, I know for a fact, that Joseph Campbell feels this very very keenly.” - Dr. Stephan A. Hoeller, year 1987

I did not read a word of that, Jessie Pinkman.

Exactly. You are an agent of banality. Here to banalize the Founding Father(s) of the United States of America symbolism; education, and teachings. Your hero you worship, “Jessie Pinkman”, the high school drugie video gamer who avoids nonfiction books, your meme super-man!

Are you claiming to be a founding father now?

No, I’m not claiming that.

You seem to have literacy issues. You can’t understand the Founding Fathers language, too old for your Lemmy mindset.

Your drug-messaging speaks for itself. Your fixation on meth and other drug use. Instead of focusing on your English literacy and context blindness issues in your own brain.

• You start pushing and pondering drugs when you read a posting on Lemmy high speed messaging system titled “Smiling Hive Mind Season One: “E pluribus unum” ++ “Annuit cœptis” … meaning “many signal interpositions” 8.613 MHz / 4-level FSK at 400 baud”

Because you can’t understand symbolism of the Free Masons Founding Fathers of the United States of America year 1776 ideals. You are so meme addled with Lemmy trash content that you think “drugs” because it blows your mind to actually read a book on printed paper.

I didn’t watch it.

It shows. You are anti-literacy, anti-learning, anti-understanding, anti-comprehension. You come along and say har har, drugs, I’m a druggie messages. Your context blindness behavior / mindset on Lemmy - that the posting is a quote from a Founding Father of the United States of America, which you clearly minded drug users more than educators.

It’s like going on a safari into people’s mental illnesses (complimentary).

A very common misconception. The mental illness is on Truth Social and Fox News HDTV. The audience of Rupert Murdoch has mass psychosis mental illness. We have educational science to educate and diagnose people with mass psychosis, but people instead profit off treating one Fox News HDTV viewer at a time for $180/hour instead of diagnosing the entire cable network system.
