The Mentality That Explains Trumps Dead-Enders

[skews13]

In 1954, social psychologist Leon Festinger embedded himself in a cult called The Seekers, whose leader, Dorothy Martin, preached that a UFO would rescue them before destroying the planet on Dec. 21 of that year. When that didn’t happen, many sect members left. But most of the inner circle remained, inventing all kinds of rationales for why the prophecy didn’t come true (e.g. their faith persuaded the aliens to give Earth a second chance) and redoubled their devotion.

From this research, Festinger developed the theory of cognitive dissonance: that human beings will do just about anything to resolve contradictions between our deeply held beliefs about the world and the reality of the world itself. Cognitive dissonance is so unpleasant, so disordering and catastrophic for the ego, that no amount of absurd, tortured reasoning is worse than reality contradicting a deeply held belief.

Trumpism is a religion, and religions do not allow for counterfactual evidence.

Look at the adherents of religion and their adherence to a failed philosophy that has failed to deliver and yet they still worship and throw money at it.

Its the same mentality that many (if not most) ascend to when they realize the mistakes their fathers or mothers made. They don't want to believe that the northstar of their life was flawed. One would hopethat by the time you get to be an adult, you could look at things rationally. ..Trump supporters can't.

Maybe you should read carefully the “cognitive dissonance” text; you seem to be struggling with it in your denials of reality.

All of us try to resolve cognitive dissonance, but the Trump movement has been a years-long exercise in it. Election denial is its latest manifestation. But before that came COVID denial, science denial, climate denial, ‘alternative facts,’ the inability of Trump’s most devoted fans to see him for the obvious con man that he is.

If you are a democrat and you don’t have cognitive dissonance then you are either really stupid or just a bad person.
