How does chronic exposure to alt-right media neo-terrorism change brain structure and functioning to induce Deranged Trump Mass Psychosis (#DTMP)? And why emotions trump science, evidence, and truth.
How might we understand why unwoke and woke people resist using the lay systemic diagnosis of DTMP to understand the complex socio-political phenomenon of alt-right cult indoctrination?
How might we use the #LetEquitySingLetFreedomSing song, as an anthem option for pro-democracy and anti-autocracy rallies?
Listen to this inspirational song. #LetEquityRingLetFreedomSing.
Use Human-AI-enabled emancipatory neo-learning (H.E.N) to de-indoctrinate the cult of alt-right media neo-terrorism
Neo-terrorism is the fear-driven propaganda and disinformation war of words, with a psychopathic disregard for the integrity of transparent accountability and truth-seeking.
How might we use micro-dose dialogue sessions to learn how to cultivate the virtue ethics of equity meta-governance as the antidote to alt-right neo-terrorism?
Conduct Round Robin micro-dose dialogues (10-15 minutes) on Zoom calls with de-briefing periods, and repeat. Share what was meaningful about your dialogues into the next session. Share any new ideas or insights.
During and after each micro-dose dialogue session, learners can reflect on and discuss the meaning and implications of these ethical questions to embark on our ongoing, iterative, lifelong intergenerational emancipatory learning journeys together.
What are the upsides and downsides of the AI outputs?
What’s missing? Any concerns about misinformation and disinformation?
What additional questions do you have?
Post any learning insights from your micro-dose dialogue sessions on this page. This is beginning of our share lifelong intergenerational learning journeys from the cults of indoctrination to culture of emancipation: becoming open-minded, truth-seeking, virtuous free-thinkers collaborating to cultivate the virtue ethics of equity meta-governance and solve our complex entanglement of self-inflicted wicked problems.
1. How might we cultivate the virtue ethics of equity meta-governance as our long-term vision, Equity Moonshot as our mission, and H.E.N and story-telling, songs, memes, images, and symbols as our strategies?
Equity meta-governance uses a guiding constellation of virtues to co-create fair rules, fair plays, fair games, fair opportunities, and fair rewards for the benefit of all, on a regenerating healthy planet.
This is the Ultimate Meta-Process for Humanity (UMH): addressing our meta-crisis that sets up our poly-crisis, our complex entanglement of self-inflicted wicked problems, and mitigates and adapts to the consequences of living beyond planetary boundaries.
The rhodium rule for the UMH is our guiding light emanating from our constellation of virtues.
Be fair and kind to all people, the planet, nature, animals, plants, and soil.
The ethical transcendent supra-structure of cultivating equity meta-governance process call on us to coordinate virtuous power-sharing and empowerment processes across political, public, and private sectors to solve our meta-crisis: the systemic power abuse dynamics that sets our poly-crisis including political corruption, unethical governance, inept stewardship, incompetent leadership, corrupt political systems, degenerative practices, and unsustainable living.
We need a UMH superstructure to scale up collaboration on Massive Transformational Purpose (MTP) on Equity Moonshot: design and build an equitable, regenerative, and sustainable future to benefit all.
How might we cultivate the virtue ethics of equity meta-governance to co-create a fair, free, flourishing future for humanity on a regenerating the planet by bending our dystopian arc toward a practical utopian?

2. How do our brains become what we feed it?
Alt-right media propaganda affects and limits how people think by making them feel scared, angry, and worried. This is like feeding your brain junk food every day - it's not healthy and it changes how you feel and act.
Neo-terrorist propagandists manipulate and exploit fear-anxiety-hate-anger-rage-paranoia at large scale to activate the emotional brain.
Chronic exposure to alt-right media over-actives the emotional brain and causes the thinking brain to shrink. When facts and evidence challenge people's political identity, they become so emotionally triggered that they shut down their thinking brain and reject anything contradicting their beliefs and loyalty to their leader. This blind unconditional loyalty is a sign that people have become victims of alt-right media neo-terrorism.
Die-hard MAGA supporters become amplifiers of what their leader has told them to think and say. They become parrots, puppets, pawns, pit bulls to their master and pied piper. They are not free for themselves to question or to have doubts. They are imprisoned inside of the Trump propaganda wall.
The unwoke are unaware of how neo-terrorists exploit fear-based propaganda to manipulate and induce goose-stepping conformity to rigid groupthink: an emotional regression to self-righteous thinking, I’m right, you’re wrong, I’m good, you’re evil.
Think of your emotional brain like a muscle - if you exercise it with angry and scary thoughts all the time, it gets bigger and more angry. This makes people:
Feel like they are being treated unfairly
Have blind faith in fake news, like the BIG LIE
Believe things that aren't true
Become easily triggered with anger
Stayed isolated within rigid groupthink.
Feels distrustful outside of their own tribe
Fight more with family members
Become estranged from family.
This polarity represents two contrasting ways of living.
Path 1: Being controlled by propaganda about what to think
Let others use fear-anxiety-hate-anger-rage-paranoia to control what to think
Believe the propaganda without asking questions
Feel like an victim of unfairness
Path 2: Being free to learn how to think
Ask questions and seeking truth from multiple sources
Become open minded to learning new things
Weigh up facts and evidence to make your own decisions about your opinions
This means learning how to spot when propaganda is trying to control your thoughts and not think for yourself instead.
Just like you wouldn't eat only candy for every meal, you shouldn't feed your brain only scary and angry information from one source. A healthy mind needs balanced, truthful information to grow strong and free.
Our choice is between living in two contrasting options:
Indoctrinated cults of virtuous victims perpetuating dysfunctional polarizations, toxic divisiveness, self-righteous fundamentalism, rigid identity politics, and the futility of cancel culture wars to escalate inequities with reversed Robin Hood: screw the poor to give to the rich
Emancipatory cultures of open-minded, truth-seeking, virtuous free-thinkers collaborating to co-create a fair, free, flourishing future on a regenerating planet for the benefit of all.

3. How might we deconstruct the deep state of alt-right media neo-terrorism inducing Deranged Trump Mass Psychosis?
The MAGA unwoke are unaware of how the deep state of alt-right media neo-terrorism induces #DTMP. Die-hard MAGA supporters are indoctrination victims of these propaganda machines.
This question also calls for awakening the woke about their unwokeness of the #DTMP. They avoid using this systemic descriptor of a complex socio-political phenomenon because of fears of name-calling and stigmatization of individuals.
We cannot change what we do not name and understand.
There is a difference between giving a name to a condition and name-calling a person. What is a better name for bully? What is a better name for #DTMP? We can use the word bully in a non-stigmatizing, name-descriptive way with a neutral valence, just as we can #DTMP.
DTMP is an collective dependency addiction to a charismatic delusional leader. Avoiding naming a condition enables #DTMP because of psychologically naivety about how alt-right media neo-terrorism, DontheCon’s fool-aid, and the MAGA brand contributes to the cult trance of DTMP.
Chronic exposure to alt-right media neo-terrorism induces measurable neurobiological and psychological changes, particularly in brain regions governing emotional processing, threat detection, and decision-making. These changes create feedback loops that reinforce extremist ideologies and induce cognitive rigid binary thinking.
The neurostructural impacts of chronic alt-right media neo-terrorism
Increased gray matter volume in the right amygdala (linked to threat perception) inhibits functional connectivity with prefrontal regions, heightens emotional reactivity and impulsive aggression, and diminishes rational decision-making. Repeated exposure hyper-activates the amygdala, encodes emotional memories as visceral sensations rather than coherent narratives.
Reduced neocortical gray matter volume in the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) and ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) correlates with impaired social judgment, diminished empathy, and rigid ideological fixation. These regions are critical for contextualizing threats and moderating sacred value formation.
Dopaminergic reinforcement patterns similar to addiction make extremist content consumption increasingly compelling. The gray matter volume changes in these nucleus accumbens (reward center), exacerbating addictive consumption cycles.
The psychological impacts of chronic alt-right media neo-terrorism
Reduced functional connectivity between social cognition and executive control networks fosters black-and-white self-righteous thinking, resistance to contradictory evidence, and susceptibility to conspiracy theories. This rigidity predicts extremist views across ideological spectrums.
Repeated exposure induces autonomic nervous system blunting reduce empathy for outgroups and normalizes extreme rhetoric. This desensitization correlates with increased tolerance for radical solutions to perceived threats.
Hypervigilance with symptoms mirroring PTSD induces intrusive memories of perceived threats and avoidance behaviors. Media-driven re-traumatization amplifies ideological commitment.
Self-reinforcing belief spirals solidifying preexisting worldviews about national threats and outgroup aggression increases support for violent solutions and distrust of institutions.

4. How might we understand the reservations of people in using the anti-propaganda language of Deranged Trump Mass Psychosis?
Caring, sensitive, empaths may resist using the anti-propaganda language of appropriately calling-out neo-terrorism and #DTMP because of concerns about name-calling for fear of stigmatizing, blaming, and shaming MAGA supporters.
Empaths who have been traumatized by name-calling, derogatory labels, bullying, and and PTSD may object to using this accountability term that aims to redress the neo-terrorism that induces DTMP.
Paradoxically, the conflict avoidance in using this term, or similar descriptor, will not hold the deep state of alt-right media neo-terrorism accountable for their immoral violations of virtues, such as integrity and honesty.
We cannot change what we do not name and understand.
The appropriate calling-out strategy of using anti-propaganda language requires developing a shared purpose, meaning and understanding about using the neutral valence of the DTMP descriptor and the negative valence of neo-terrorism.
These concepts provide explanatory assistance in co-creating ethical systems accountable to truth-seeking, integrity and honesty as a way to unravel deep state of alt-right neo-terrorism and co-create cultures that prevent the disinformation indoctrination that induces DTMP. This calls resurrecting and updating the Fairness Doctrine of journalistic fidelity to integrity, truth-seeking and impartiality.
Caring, sensitive, empaths who have negative associations about neo-terrorism and #DTMP for whatever reasons will not use these anti-propaganda concepts calling for truth-seeking and transparent accountability.
Our constitutional republic has regressed to a psychopathic deep state of alt-right media neo-terrorism which risks regressing into the fascism of an immorally bankrupt autocracy and ethically spineless kleptocracy.
The deep state of alt-right media propaganda machines has exploited neo-terrorism to induce the cult trance of Deranged Trump Mass Psychosis (#DTMP).
The DTMP label calls for explaining why Donald Trump is deranged.
How might we rank order the top 20 derangement of President Trump to deconstruct the MAGA brand into the immoral trashcan of America politics?
A concern has been expressed about Donald Trump’s mental decline and possible early signs of dementia, like Ronald Regan. During Trump 1.0, #DontheCon significantly increased his rate of lying and disinformation over his first four years. With Trump 2.0, dementia will increase his rate of confabulation. DonConFab will simply make up claims without any facts.
During a recent Oval Office meeting with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, #DonConFab made false claims regarding violence and genocide against white farmers. These assertions have been widely debunked by official statistics, independent experts, and fact-checking organizations.

5. How might we engage family members with DTMP using empathy, compassion, radical candor, and bold humility and learn strategies to heal divided families?
Families divided by Trumpism face profound challenges rooted in powerful identity politics. The vast majority of Trump supporters believe that American values and beliefs are being undermined and cherished traditions are under threat, creating tension about political differences.
When family members support different political figures, they're not simply disagreeing about policies but defending core aspects of their identity and values.
This leads to severe communication breakdowns during family gatherings. Some family members report feeling that their Trump-supporting relatives have been fundamentally changed by exposure to alt-right media neo-terrorism, making it difficult to recognize the people they once knew.
