1 - We need to take aim at our TRUE FOE! It's not Trump. It's not Putin. But it's a thing we HAVE to defeat! We call it TRUMPISM, because it echoes his malignancies, but it's a much larger thing than TRUMP himself. It keeps metastasizing. It's now a full-on apparatus.

2 - Enablers. Amplifiers. Grifters. Opportunists. Fox News. Talk radio. Right wing podcasts. Performative elected officials. Foreign actors, like Putin. Social networks like Facebook. It's spread like a plague, largely through fear mongering, to millions of our most susceptible.

3 - TRUMPISM emotionalizes, starting with fear. Then it places blame. Then it demonizes who it blames. And this produces hate. Lies become false narratives and then conspiracies. Projections. False equivalencies. We ALL know some people who were manipulated and co-opted.

4 - The principal weapon of TRUMPISM is propaganda. It's everywhere. Propaganda blurs facts, creates doubt. Disagreements ensue. Trust erodes. Tribalism is enhanced. Laws are disrespected. Winning is everything. In history, when governments change, it usually involves propaganda.

5 - Culture wars. Nationalism. Xenophobia. Chaos. Addiction. Perversion of words. (Does any Trump cultist understand the meaning of the word "evidence"?) TOTAL politicization of EVERY issue. Lies that are shameless. In an echo chamber; with mass repetition. This - is TRUMPISM.

6 - #UNTRUTH is a film that will make sense out of where we are and why we're here. It's a behavioral perspective we don't ever get in the media. It will speak truth to ANYONE who watches. It explains, clearly, what we face, the underlying reasons, and how we make sure to prevail

7 - The film will be released before the midterms. It's psychology over politics. And independent, the only way a film like this can be made. We think it can/will make a difference. Please read more here, watch the trailer, consider supporting the effort.
