Fear Mongering and the Cult of Division

Sometimes it’s not subtle.

Sometimes it’s loud and vicious—

and it’s right there in plain sight.

Trump’s Easter post told us everything we need to know about his tactics:

“Happy Easter to all, including the Radical Left Lunatics fighting to bring Murderers, Drug Lords, Dangerous Prisoners, the Mentally Insane, and Wife Beaters back into our country…”

Instead of a message of hope or unity, he delivered a tirade of fear and hate—on a sacred day meant for renewal.

Psychological breakdown:

This is a textbook fear tactic.

It triggers your lizard brain—the most primal part of your nervous system designed for survival.

When fear is ignited, your ability to think critically shuts down.

You’re left with only two instincts: fight or submit to the “savior.”

This is how cults manipulate loyalty:

• They create an exaggerated threat (“everyone different from you is a danger”).

• They paint themselves as the only protector (“only I can save you”).

• They use fear to replace community with division, compassion with suspicion.

And when fear becomes your lens, cruelty starts to feel justified.

Because you’re not “hurting people” anymore—you’re “protecting yourself.”

But let’s breathe together for a moment.

Let’s feel what is really true beneath all the noise:

• America’s greatness has always been in its diversity.

• The so-called “dangerous outsiders” are your neighbors, coworkers, friends.

• Safety is built on community, not on walls of rage and suspicion.

You deserve a country—and a life—not fueled by fear.

You deserve leadership that speaks to your hope, not your fight-or-flight instincts.

If you’re feeling it now—

If the fear, the hate, the division feels wrong in your gut—

It’s because it is wrong.

And it’s not too late to walk toward something better.

The truth is:

Love protects better than fear ever could.

Community builds stronger walls of safety than cruelty ever will.

Courage comes from compassion, not violence.

Let’s choose each other.

Let’s choose love.

Let’s choose to see through the fog of fear—and build the future we deserve.
