An Analysis of Trump Supporters Has Identified 5 Key Traits
-
1. Authoritarian Personality Syndrome
Authoritarianism refers to the advocacy or enforcement of strict obedience to authority at the expense of personal freedom, and is commonly associated with a lack of concern for the opinions or needs of others. Authoritarian personality syndrome—a well-studied and globally-prevalent condition—is a state of mind that is characterized by belief in total and complete obedience to one’s authority. Those with the syndrome often display aggression toward outgroup members, submissiveness to authority, resistance to new experiences, and a rigid hierarchical view of society. The syndrome is often triggered by fear, making it easy for leaders who exaggerate threat or fear monger to gain their allegiance.
2. Social dominance orientation
Social dominance orientation (SDO)—which is distinct but related to authoritarian personality syndrome—refers to people who have a preference for the societal hierarchy of groups, specifically with a structure in which the high-status groups have dominance over the low-status ones. Those with SDO are typically dominant, tough-minded, and driven by self-interest.
3. Prejudice
Perhaps unsurprisingly, a new study has shown that support for Trump is correlated with a standard scale of modern racism.
4. Intergroup contact
As such, it’s important to note that there is growing evidence that Trump’s white supporters have experienced significantly less contact with minorities than other Americans.
5. Relative deprivation
Relative deprivation refers to the experience of being deprived of something to which one believes they are entitled. It is the discontent felt when one compares their position in life to others who they feel are equal or inferior but have unfairly had more success than than them.
These people may need long-term treatment in specialized facilities similar to prison work camps. :police: :police: :police:

LOL, you are so delusional.
Have you seen the rioting, looting and violence your side has been using for over a decade? You guys have been book burning, setting fires to occupied building to prevent speech you don't like.
You demand people bow down to you. You get in the faces of anyone who doesn't put up the black power fist.
You take over an area of town where you aren't wanted and demand "taxes" from the people who live there; ie The Chop.
You lie and defend criminals over law abiding citizens.

You're a joke. Anything that fits your bullshit world view is "factual." No… It's your opinion. I identify you as an idiot with a very low IQ. These are not facts. These are your opinions. "Authoritarian Personality Syndrome." This is not factual. You are fake news. Anyone with a degree who writes this bullshit you drool over and say, "SEE!!!" But take a look at these celebrities serving jail time because they got their kids into school for bribery. A degree doesn't mean what they say is factual. It's only factual when they say something to reinforce your belief system telling you what you wanna hear.
Have you not seen all the people getting cancelled because they said something that you thought was offensive are shut down? Has any liberal ever been shut down because Conservatives didn't agree with them? Name one. I can name hundreds that your side has shut down, and by shut down I mean as far as their bank closing their accounts because they said they "disagree" with trans or whatever [topic]. That's authoritarian. You don't give a shit about the First Amendment. You're just fucking stupid. Sorry.
I as an independent appreciate differing points of view because they help me understand what EYE think. That's a core tenet of Buddhism. I don't try to shut them up. YOUR side is fascist, authoritarian, and it's OBVIOUS. We can give examples, you can't. So just shut up. You even tried to have me censored on here. Did I ever try to have you censored? No. Because I'm not authoritarian. It's black and white mother fuckers. Nobody on the opposing side is talking about sending you to re-education camps with a nasty smirk. You're sick. And what goes around comes around.

Yep, the left want wrong thinkers sent to "re-education" camps.

Yea China has that for the "Uygers?" I think that's what they're called, the millions of Muslims who they force to eat pork and such under Xi. Hitler had re-education camps. Stalin did. And now that's what they want for America??? Good thing we still got our second amendment. Beto can sit there and talk about "nuking" Republicans all he wants, but the second amendment guarantees a mutual destruction of both sides. That's why it will NEVER happen. Yea, the military is powerful, but if they go against the people, it's the end. The idea that dims promote this garbage is idiotic beyond reason and fear mongering to convince you to join their side. What a moron hinting at such an absurd thing… Has no idea what the hell he's talking about.
What is more likely is that Trump will arrest the mayors and governors for sedition and treason. He's already declared those zones as anarchist, so at this point he can go in and wipe them out. He's the boss bitches. And you're not.
This also means that under emergency powers it will be totally lawful for anyone to just kill traitors without trial. Unfortunately it could get bloody.

This is an excellent study.
However, I don't think they should be sent to camps - they just need better education. Even the stupidest people (yes, even Trump supporters!) can be educated. But it takes a hell of a lot to fix those brains, they are very, very damaged.

I don't know if it's possible to educate the stupidity and hate away but learning work skills in a camp and working in a factory or on a farm would at least give them some utility to our society. You can look at them and see that they are violent criminals working together as a gang of nationalistic thugs.
However, I have heard that anyone can just put a bullet through their fucking useless brains on sight since they are anarchists. Lead is bad for the environment so they should be lined up first to kill as many as possible with one bullet, or else just douse them with gasoline and burn them alive. The heat could be used to make electricity so they would at least serve some purpose, however limited. Or else slit their throats with a chain saw and feed them to hogs.

Oh, I forgot to point out that the handful of normal-looking human beings on the right side of the photograph with cameras are members of the press, not fascist dimwit incels.

Thanks for your opinion, which is worth less than nothing. LOL does normal mean sketched out on meth and with blue hair? Crybabies. :blownose: :blownose:

Gotta love the hypocritical liberals with the name calling and body shaming they claim to be so against.
It worked so well for Hillary in 2016.
