Hi, Folks -

It occurs to me that the outpouring of often ugly emotions we've seen in the past few days is actually the logical result of the many years of Political Correctness indoctrination. PC has kept the lid on so much that it is exploding out, now that Donald Trump has "lifted the lid".

Simultaneously it's the result of "group" indoctrination. Shouts of "We won't be divided!" and the like point this out.

Propagandize the idea that, if the individual concerns himself with anything other than The Group, he is selfish, greedy, inhumane. He is a criminal.

More and more, this is how the young are being trained these days.

The grand “we” is being sold to them like a cheap street drug. They buy in. They believe this “we” is real, instead of a hollow con designed to drag them into a Globalist framework owned and operated by mega-corporations, banks, foundations, governments, and ubiquitous Rockefeller interests.

Political Correctness relies on group identity. Say something negative about Obama, and the label "racist" might come back, an accusation about group membership rather than about any actions or character flaws in the individual named Obama.

Et cetera.

Why are you protesting? "We're here to defend the rights of all women!" Really? What about all the women who voted for Trump?

And you, why are you smashing windows? "Because - uh - Capitalism!"

And, why did you smash that Trump supporter in the face? "Because - uh - Trump is an intolerant fascist!"

A moment's logic and reflection - that is, thinking for oneself as an individual versus 'channeling' some groupthink - would go a long way, here.
