Fear being the biggest motivator....and narrow mindedness from any belief system. If it makes you uncomfortable, dismissal, denial, and rejection will keep you in your comfortable safe space.
Until you get slapped in the face.
My family, they don’t know what’s coming, they feel comfortable and don’t want to be bother of what is happening, my ex is super lost and his family as well.
This, many don't follow all of this closely enough. They are all too busy trying to make ends meet. Keeping food on their tables for their families. Prefer to watch a movie or a series to wind down. I ask my contractors about simple things, no clue. Bump into parents at school and imply a few things, no clue.
A pledge of just $250 gets you this shitty burlap tote, too small to put anything in it, with this asshole's face on it... Carrying it around let's everyone know your position on any issue...
I’m not sure how I received critical thinking: As a adolescent I lived in two countries, went to 7 grade schools, one high school, I was born in the 50ies, taught in school to hide under a school desk because the Russians might attack, I was taught that I’m going to Asian to kill somebody including children and women for a reason that didn’t make since, I turn 18 when the war ended, I knew then FUCK the news media of all propaganda of WWII re-enactments and Vietnam, on Tv, the war on pot arresting teenagers and sentencing them to prison, gasoline lines, everything that surrounded myself was lies and lies, not sure that how it came about BUT I did know in my 60ies that TRUMP was my John Wayne and I voted for this thank you and bless you the reader and especially your family and the President
**** critical thinking, is the intellectually disciplined process of actively analyzing, evaluating, and synthesizing information to reach reliable, justifiable conclusions. It involves questioning assumptions, checking for bias, and using logic rather than accepting information at face value

Canada and USA?
Patriotism signaling has its value, but over-the-top jingoism, such as a Dodge commercial I recently saw that somehow brought the Boston Tea Party into the sales pitch for a pickup truck, becomes identifiable as manipulative. You might’ve had an advantage as a Canadian in thinking critically about American over-the-top jingoism. Once you saw the manipulation in one place, you could use the same thinking to spot manipulation elsewhere also.
It should be called Suicidal Sympathy. The supporters of invaders get duped by sob stories about the supposed need for refuge, and the supporters feel sorry for the invaders. That’s sympathy. The well-intentioned supporters don’t have empathy, as they are severely incorrect about what the invaders are really feeling. I realize that ‘Suicidal Empathy’ isn’t your coinage, but if you’re going to the trouble of nicely explaining the traitorous, cowardly appeasement psychologies of leftists, you might as well use the opportunity to spread the more precise term Suicidal Sympathy.
In the linked post, you wrote, “Stockholm Syndrome/Suicidal Epathy”, but these are distinct concepts and not synonyms. You went on to explain trauma bonding, which is more closely related to Stockholm Syndrome than Suicidal Sympathy is. Stockholm Syndrome and trauma bonding require a shared experience, but Suicidal Sympathy does not. In fact, the sympathy often depends on a lack of experience.
Remember the photo from about a decade ago of three young Northern European girls holding a big “Refugees Welcome” banner? Those girls probably had lived sheltered lives in their Northern European homeland and their inexperience made them gullible to claims about muslims’ civil strife requiring refuge in faraway nonmuslim countries instead of neighboring wealthy muslim countries. If those girls experienced the reality that the Syrian civil war didn’t create as many refugees as were claimed, that the modest number of authentic Syrian refugees could’ve been better accommodated in wealthy Saudi Arabia than in Europe, and that the frauds claiming refugee status really wanted to conquer Europe and sexually and otherwise assault Christians and nonmuslims, then the real experience would’ve made the girls less sympathetic.
Thank you for your response. I was using the "Suicidal Empathy" term since that's the one that's floating around right now, but I agree that Suicidal Sympathy would be a better one.
One source says:
Sympathy means understanding someone's emotions from your perspective,
Empathy means feeling those emotions from their perspective.
And yes, I still think Stockholm Syndrome is closer to the actual situation anyway. That's when people submit to their captors in hopes of not being hurt.
It starts off as virtue signaling, which is quite narcissistic in itself (Look at what a good person I am, everybody!) but ends in full-blown Stockholm Syndrome once they realize what they've allowed into their homes.
They can't admit they were wrong (there's the narcissism again) but now they're also getting fearful of these people - and here we are with full-blown vapor-locked Stockholm.
We all know that when a person feels threatened, the "fight, flight, or submit" response is triggered.
But in some people, the first two responses never kick in. There are people who simply don't have them. Maybe it's been bred out of them over the centuries, where those who did fight back were killed off.
So, all that's left is "submit." And that is displayed as non-stop appeasement and submission no matter what. Even parents whose own children have been murdered by these invading monsters still insist that the invaders should be allowed in and treated kindly.
Narcissism + fear is a really, really bad combination.
Narcissism + fear is a really, really bad combination.“
Yes, and both low character traits stem from insecurity, which in a sense is a lack of faith in God. If you trust in God, you have no reason to feel insecure, and therefore no reason to overcompensate with dirty narcie moves and no reason to appease aggressors.
Maybe it's been bred out of them over the centuries, where those who did fight back were killed off.“
There might be a significant breeding factor, but I speculate that a more important factor might be the combination of modern conditioning through indoctrination and modern environmental exposures such as to hormone disrupters.
Many, many humans are utterly without conscience. They are born that way, very often the result of inbreeding, and nothing can be done to change them.
The technical term for a human with no conscience is "psychopath" or "sociopath."
They always end up in power because they have nothing to stop them from doing whatever is necessary to get that power.
They're the ones who always smugly tell you that "power corrupts, so stay away from it!" Which is very nice for them because it keeps decent people OUT of power.
Power does not corrupt. The corrupt are drawn to power.
Believing that "no one is without conscience" is destroying Western civilization. Look again. Then you'll understand what we're really up against.
that would have come under the "when". just because a human stops listening to their conscience while they are in the cradle doesn't mean God didn't give them one.
otherwise, God would be unable to judge and condemn such flawed creations. we can't have it both ways here. just because the science nerds decided it was so, doesn't mean it is. experience dictates otherwise.
this is a Biblical Principle. Jeremiah 23:1-2. This shows there is a division. It shows there is a purpose. It shows people want to be controlled too. Paul said he died daily.
much on this. With the internet and modern stuff it is easier to both see this. If the evil side controls the internet and such, they are essentially the shepherd by default. This is why we see the MSM and such say such things as they do.
These people are very intelligent.
I can hang with all sorts of people in real life and I have also always been the black sheep. I will tell both good and evil they are wrong at times. Yet I am nobody and I am human.
I enjoy seeing people happy and seeing the fruit of a good shepherd so to speak. I have faith in people and that includes I have faith in the evil shepherds looking out for their perceptual self interests.
People tend to always group think. I am not a fault finder, although I can be deemed that for sure.
Very few black sheep in the world. I still do not know if it is a curse or a blessing at times. Yet the modern internet exposes there is others out there and in the past many like me would always 'feel' that we are alone. yet we are never alone.
Jesus is the Lord.
Yes in some of the modern Christians they do not see that Jesus is the ultimate black Sheep.. (black in this context is going against the World) .. black in the context of the woke is going against Jesus.
being accepting that there is evil and good in this world is a tough thing to wrap around. Jesus says to be hot or cold... Yet most humans are variations of lukewarm sadly. even me.
yet just having a glimpse of what Jesus truly is a blessing is it not?
definitions matter. When you are around people who define things of the world as good are they psychopaths?
To themselves they are normal and another telling them they are psychopaths are non-normal.
there is always going to be a division from good and evil and how to define it. Those who think we can live together in harmony are wrong.
nothing to do with skin color but everything to do with soul color.
this is why the USA was Created but many have forgotten. This is why we are heading to the precise moment in time where people will have to change.
Think of it this way... what if.. what if your Pastor said to you. Trump voters are ALL psychopaths and they are against Jesus? Would you have the ability to tell your Pastor he is wrong or would you follow your Pastor?
Now is Trump a psychopath? that depends on the definition you are using. To me trump is a man who is definitely called to do something and seemingly the World is against him. So to the World Trump is a psychopath and if a Pastor is part of the World he would agree...
it is a circle of thought... Leaders who lead make a decision and those who decide to stand with people who openly say gay and abortion is of Jesus... well they are psychopaths to me.
Fear being the biggest motivator....and narrow mindedness from any belief system. If it makes you uncomfortable, dismissal, denial, and rejection will keep you in your comfortable safe space. Until you get slapped in the face.

Perhaps, as they say ... .ignorance is bliss.
Yep
Most people ignore any news or politics . So they do not need to convince or sway any of them.
This, many don't follow all of this closely enough. They are all too busy trying to make ends meet. Keeping food on their tables for their families. Prefer to watch a movie or a series to wind down.

I have another post on this today, on Stockholm Syndrome/Suicidal Empathy and why it happens: https://greatawakening.win/p/1ASZ3iULuW/
I upvoted your linked post.

From a few years ago: https://litter.catbox.moe/qcrsftlsa117np8j.mp4
no one is without a conscience. the only difference is whether or not they have taught themselves to ignore it, and when they did that.
I will completely disagree with you here.
Many, many humans are utterly without conscience. They are born that way, very often the result of inbreeding, and nothing can be done to change them.
The technical term for a human with no conscience is "psychopath" or "sociopath."

otherwise, God would be unable to judge and condemn such flawed creations. we can't have it both ways here. just because the science nerds decided it was so, doesn't mean it is. experience dictates otherwise.
Restated, power attracts the corruptable. Going a step further, absolute power attracts the absolutely corruptable.
this is a Biblical Principle. Jeremiah 23:1-2. This shows there is a division. It shows there is a purpose. It shows people want to be controlled too. Paul said he died daily.

Jesus is the anti-psychopath.
He teaches you how to live like a good human being, instead of like an animal in human form - which is also known as a psychopath.
(Animals have some empathy but no conscience, which is fine for them but not for human beings.)
And yes, that is why he is absolutely a blessing to humankind.
