The 6 Steps To Being Brainwashed By Hate Speech At A Trump Rally [View all]





[break][break]1 - SHOCK - Trump just yelled the Lady he's running against for president is a BIGOT![break]


2 - CONFUSION - Immediately looking to your side, you know something wholly uncalled for has occurred.[break]


3 - PEER PRESSURE - Looking at the masses of people cheering, you realize this is accepted behavior here.[break]


4 - LOSS OF WILLPOWER - Because you're easily influenced from watching Faux News, you look at another supporter in the VIP seating to see how you should behave at the hateful rhetoric being spewed.[break]


5 - 1ST BABY STEP TO OBEDIENCE - Realizing the VIP seated next to you approves of the language, you try your first attempt at being supportive of the hate that you initially were disturbed by.[break]


6 - CONGRATS, YOU'RE NOW A MINDLESS LEMMING - You stare forward with a bizarre Joker smile, and realize you're on TV and everyone who knows you sees that you've laughed off yet another new low by the All-Time Greatest Self-Deluded Shit-Stirring 'Master of Projection' that the GOP has ever tried to dump on America!
