I can tell that you're utterly missing what I'm saying. There's nothing inherent about trumpism. If it were inherent...I would be more permissive in my understanding of it's moral desert. I think human nature is good. Trumpers are trying their level best to be their worst. Hurt people hurt people.
You still return to this bullshit about human nature. I simply disagree with this nazi like crap (or perhaps some weird quasi religious predestination where worthy vote good and damned bad) - people don't vote on fascist because of their nature. If some were insist that they do then next logical step is that some people are inherently worse and some better.
There is a myriad of factors that influence individual decisions, there is propaganda, there is a system that generates grievance that aren't addressed by mainstream politicians (nor they will be addressed by trump but at some point individual might say fuck it at least others will be fucked up alongside me). Yet still this human nature is mentioned despite it total lack of explanatory power.
The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.
