@SafiyahNoor1 @S_R_Paul @MelissaJPeltier @CultExpert @page88 @IdeaGov Are all White Europeans, White Americans in a cult? Yet do ALL BENEFIT FROM deliberate structural institutional and cultural racism and misogyny? with benign neglect at best but little action.....if you're going to call WS/WN MAGA, FOXers a cult 1/x

@SafiyahNoor1 @S_R_Paul @MelissaJPeltier @CultExpert @page88 @IdeaGov (like this somehow just now happened or some sh!t, and BTW it doesn't meet J Liftons 8 criteria), then all WP are in a cult. The most obvious problem there it's the dominant culture, and it's not a subculture either THE DOMINANT CULTURE SETS THE LAW, 2/x

@SafiyahNoor1 @S_R_Paul @MelissaJPeltier @CultExpert @page88 @IdeaGov White folks benign, bystander position & passive awareness is another way of benefiting. You and I both know if White folks had advocated to equality like it was their lives at stake, this would have been over long ago. But when 53% WW & 69% WM vote TRUMP...that's not even 3/x

@SafiyahNoor1 @S_R_Paul @MelissaJPeltier @CultExpert @page88 @IdeaGov White Majority passive awareness, that's White Majority covert racist activists .....This is not a cult...I'll post Liftons 8 Criteria again if needed. A CULT doesn't seek genocide, ethnic cleansing etc..to call it a cult relieves White society, both active racists 4/x

@SafiyahNoor1 @S_R_Paul @MelissaJPeltier @CultExpert @page88 @IdeaGov and passive racists an excuse.....When did the cult of Black folks get one of those....
it's clever DARVO POLITICS BY ACADEMIC ELITES picked up and pushed by those who know nothing but know this legitimizes their faux WHITE victimhood which relieves them of responsibility 5/x

@SafiyahNoor1 @S_R_Paul @MelissaJPeltier @CultExpert @page88 @IdeaGov (I was in a cult/I was brainwashed/ I was programmed/I was just following orders) GIVES THEM PERMISSION. It's the same kind of excuses given by Academics to Germans and Hitler in Nazi Germany before all hell broke loose. It allows folks to unleash hell and 6/x

@SafiyahNoor1 @S_R_Paul @MelissaJPeltier @CultExpert @page88 @IdeaGov avoid responsibility in theorem mind. To provide perpetrators with the excuses of a victim when they have not been victimized, and who continue to victimize others is heinous and it's DARVO POLITICS and denial. If we don't stop I guarantee you we are going over that cliff
7/x END
