PAULINE HANSON’S TALENT:
TURNING FEAR INTO VOTES 💎I watched a YouTube video today called: Why Did America Choose a White Supremacist for President?
What struck me was not simply what it said about America. It was what it might be saying about us.
America did not suddenly wake up one morning and become Trumpist. The ground was prepared. People were genuinely struggling. Housing was difficult. Wages were inadequate. Communities were changing. People were frightened, angry and increasingly distrustful of institutions.
Then along came a political movement with a wonderfully simple explanation: YOUR LIFE IS HARD BECAUSE OF THOSE PEOPLE.
Immigrants. Black people. Muslims. Women. Queer people. “Woke” people. Elites. Foreigners. Anyone except the economic and political systems that are actually producing much of the insecurity.
That is the bit Australians should be watching.
Because our problems are real too. Housing really is unaffordable. People are really struggling with food, electricity, and rent. Young people really are wondering whether they will ever own a home. Regional communities really do feel neglected.
And when people are frightened and angry, there is enormous political power in giving them somebody to blame.
One Nation understands this. Pauline Hanson is now talking about a “monocultural” Australia. One Nation talks about putting “Australians first” and increasingly presents immigration and multiculturalism as explanations for problems Australians can see and feel every day.
And people are listening.
One Nation is no longer some amusing little protest party on the edge of Australian politics. Recent polling has put it at roughly a quarter or more of the national primary vote.
That should get our attention.
But there is an even greater danger. Trumpism is not really a political party. It is a political method.
Create grievance. Find an enemy. Tell people their country has been stolen from them. Promise to give it back. Attack institutions that get in the way. Keep people angry enough that they stop asking who is actually benefiting.
One Nation may currently be the most obvious Australian vehicle for that politics. But if Labor or the Coalition begin copying it because they are frightened of losing votes, the infection spreads far beyond One Nation.
Australia is not America. Our history is different. Our institutions are different. Our political culture is different.
But we are not magically immune to fear, racism, resentment or demagoguery.
America should not simply be something we stare at in disbelief. It should be a warning.
This stuff does not arrive wearing a sign saying:
FASCISM STARTS MONDAY.
It arrives saying:
I UNDERSTAND WHY YOU’RE ANGRY.
And then it quietly tells you who to hate.

There are a few moments in my life when I just need to write a #song in my head, because I need a valve for my #emotions. Usually, I just forget it again.
Once or twice I actually wrote it down. It’s always too short for an actual song (often it’s just a chorus) and I have no talent anyway. But it helps me.

A short and very reasoned piece. Clacton has been let down and people are angry and frustrated. If parties (and government) do not stand up, then many many more communities around the country will go the same way(and I am not *just* referencing poverty and despair).

I hate dropping #youtube links, but I am knee fucking deep in the #python today. So I need my share of #hatred, #anger, and #fury to get through this shit. Because as I had proven yesterday, I cant trust my junior engineers to do it.
Fuck it.

Anger continued on past its usefulness becomes unjust, then dangerous... It fuels not positive activism but regression, obsession, vengeance, self-righteousness... It feeds off itself, destroying its host in the process.

Can people hold on to their anger
against others, and then look for healing from the Lord?
Can they refuse to have mercy
on people like themselves,
and then pray about their own sins?
If they, who are just flesh,
hold on to anger,
who will secure pardon
for their own sins?
[ἄνθρωπος ἀνθρώπῳ συντηρεῖ ὀργήν,
καὶ παρὰ κυρίου ζητεῖ ἴασιν;
ἐπ᾽ ἄνθρωπον ὅμοιον αὐτῷ οὐκ ἔχει ἔλεος,
καὶ περὶ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν αὐτοῦ δεῖται;
αὐτὸς σὰρξ ὢν διατηρεῖ μῆνιν,
τίς ἐξιλάσεται τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτοῦ;]The Bible (The Old Testament) (14th - 2nd C BC) Judeo-Christian sacred scripture [Tanakh, Hebrew Bible], incl. the Apocrypha (Deuterocanonicals)

This article was basically written about me. I mean, it wasn't, but there's nothing in it that doesn't match my experience.
Anger has always been one of the biggest issues in my life. And when I was angry, of course I was the problem. Not what I was angry at. This was beaten (sometimes literally), drilled and programmed into me by so many incidents. And #Alexithymia stopped me from constructively fighting back. As the article says, it's a cruel loop.
One big thing this article has shown me is the crucial differences between #anger and a #meltdown. Anger can lead to a meltdown but they're not the same. There are so many insights in this article, it's worth several reads.

There's a particular cruelty in being handed a lifeline only to realize it's rigged to drag you under. Millions were told the SAVE plan would be relief—a rare light at the end of the systemic tunnel that has kept borrowers trapped. Now, new data reveals half of those with debt could face payment hikes of $500+ monthly. The frontier of crisis shifts as soon as the law catches up. #studentdebt #debtcrisis #politics #Democrat #anger https://unenlightenedgeneralists.com/the-lifeboat-is-a-lie/

He did not smile, as we have already said, but he used to laugh; sometimes, indeed frequently, a bitter laugh. There is consent in a smile, while a laugh is often a refusal.
[Il ne souriait pas, nous l’avons dit, mais il riait; parfois, fréquemment même; d’un rire amer. Il y a du consentement dans le sourire, tandis que le rire est souvent un refus.]Victor Hugo (1802–1885) French writer, journalist, human rights activist, politician
The Man Who Laughs [L’Homme qui rit; The Laughing Man; By Order of the King], Part 1, Book 0, ch. 1, sec. 4 (1.0.1.4) (1869) [tr. Unknown, Authorized (1871)]More about (and translations of) this quote: wist.info/hugo-victor/85160/

Forgiveness goes beyond words it’s a release. It’s choosing not to carry the weight of what hurt you any longer.

#Psychology #TFG #Fear #Risk #Anger #Maga #LucasBean #AffectHeuristic
https://lucasbean.substack.com/p/maga-is-all-feelings-and-no-facts
"...Using a nationally representative sample of U.S. citizens, they had participants read either a real news story designed to elicit fear (about the threat of anthrax) or a real news story designed to elicit anger (about celebrations of the attacks in some Arab countries). Participants induced with fear perceived greater risk. Participants induced with anger perceived less risk and supported more aggressive policy responses.
This is the exact mechanism that Fox News, Trump rallies, and right-wing social media exploit. The content is engineered to produce anger, not fear. Angry viewers do not question what they are being told. They feel certain. They feel in control. They feel like they are seeing truth that everyone else is too weak to accept. The affect heuristic takes over. The brain stops evaluating evidence. And whatever the angry person feels becomes what the angry person knows."

The Lowest Bid
The Lowest Bid by Stewart Stafford
The sceptre is cast to the shivering sea
with divine ordinance, codes of chivalry.
A blinding vision of the fallen from on high,
New roving dregs with a scavenger’s eye.Yield up the light, coax out the dying flame,
Punishment for crimes revokes your name.
Was freedom built on ancient delusion?
It persists as the architect’s cold conclusion.The most degrading and painful descent
is the one to the lower “kingdom” crescent,
Shadow throne invoked by seditious implication.
Collusion not coercion, mummified by mediation.Trust not the expedient offer, the beatific start —
They can only embalm the chasms of the heart.© 2026 Stewart Stafford. All rights reserved.

I’m becoming more and more convinced that I must be an #Alien. People are seeming more and more strange to me. Aside from the biological aspects, I’m finding fewer and fewer things we have in common. Everything I consider human— #empathy, #social awareness, #decency, #equality, #kindness, #modesty (to name a few, list is incomplete)—is meeting with growing resistance in society. #Humanity is increasingly triggering #hate and #anger. This is fueled by #politics and despicable #demagogues who use #fear and #incitement to pit people against one another.

Anyone can become angry. That is easy. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose, and in the right way -- that is not easy.

So both of my #exes just left for the airport ( one was visiting , the other still lives in my home ) and I am bereft but unable to feel #anger or #hatred.
For a week i watched them be #happy and that’s why I’m #crying now , why I cried most nights to myself to sleep — they are happy — that is more valuable to me than any relationship.
But I will lose my friends in both of them. #friendship is hard & losing it hurts more than anything
Can someone tell me why ?

[P] I don't know if this is another one of those autism things, but... anger doesn't come easy to me. It isn't casual. It can cause harm and I dislike it as an emotion. For many, it seems casual. It just bubbles up, to hell with the real harm it causes. It can even boil over about silly, meagre things. For me, anger is reserved for injustices. If someone hurts my feelings, I'll feel sad, maybe anxious. It isn't this omnipresent, fiery demonic wrath.

@withinity I am with you 10000%.
If we could abolish all #hate then all #starvation all #suffering all war, all #disgust and all #anger would virtually disappear.
