Working for the federal government in Canada I learned that following the process is far more important than getting anything done.

Cult

MapleEngineer ,

No, cult is the correct word. Fetish suggests that it’s sexual.

MapleEngineer ,

fet·ishnoun

  1. a form of sexual desire in which gratification is strongly linked to a particular object or activity or a part of the body other than the sexual organs.
  2. an inanimate object worshiped for its supposed magical powers or because it is considered to be inhabited by a spirit.

cultnoun

  1. a system of religious veneration and devotion directed toward a particular figure or object.
  2. a relatively small group of people having religious beliefs or practices regarded by others as strange or sinister.
  3. a misplaced or excessive admiration for a particular person or thing.

So, it’s either sexual or directed at an inanimate object. Trump is not inanimate.

Trumpism is a dangerous cult.

Freedom of speech almost always comes with freedom of association. The thing that many people miss is that freedom of association also allows you to choose NOT to associate with someone just as freedom of religion includes freedom FROM religion. The instances choosing to defederated from the trolls are exercising their right to be free from association with the trolls. No one is stopping the trolls from spewing their nonsense or stopping anyone who wants to listen from listening.

It isn’t about having something to say and being heard, it’s about having nothing to say and forcing people who don’t want to listen to listen. They’re just pissed off because the fediverse gives people the ability to exercise their right to freedom NOT to associate with them. Trolling isn’t fun without a captive audience to torture.

I got banned from r/soapmaking because I didn’t agree that buying soap that someone else made, melting it, adding perfume and glitter, and pouring it into moulds was soap making and not arts and crafts. I raise the pigs, render the lard, and make actual soap. I was called arrogant.

I was banned from r/republican for pointing out that the headline of an article that said that the DOJ had found evidence of widespread voter fraud in Georgia was incorrect and based on a letter written by a Trumpist political hack, Jeffery Clark, not the DOJ and that it in fact contradicted the DOJ, the Republican AG, the Republican Governor of Georgia, the Republican Secretary of State of Georgia, and Republican election officials in Georgia. I was called a troll.

I was banned from r/canada for wondering out loud if the neo-fascist premiere of Alberta who made unethical phone calls to Justice officials about a hateful street pastor charged with repeatedly breaking covid rules then having a secret recording of a phone call with the accused released wherein she fawned over him and promised that she was doing everything she could to help him would pay him conjugal visits in prison once he had been sentenced.

I was banned from r/freedomconvoy2022 when I pointed out that they had exercised their Section 6 rights to travel freely across provincial borders while exercising their Section 7 right to be unvaccinated to exercise their Section 2 rights to assemble in downtown Ottawa to hold their giant racist, western separatist, Nazi, fascis, white nationalist, sovereign citizen, anti-science, resident harassing, air pouring, business closing, hourly wage employee unemploying, street shitting tantrum.

Don’t speak truth into echo bunkers.
