Summary
Five Republican Minnesota state senators plan to introduce a bill classifying “Trump Derangement Syndrome” (TDS) as a mental illness, defining it as “acute paranoia” about Trump’s presidency.
The bill argues TDS causes hysteria, verbal hostility, and aggression toward Trump supporters.
Critics argue this represents a dangerous politicization of mental health diagnoses that could suppress political expression.
The bill will be read Monday before the Minnesota Senate Health and Human Services Committee, where Democrats hold a narrow majority.
I propose we make CBS a mental illness (Chronic Bootlicking Syndrome), people who have CBS may inhibit the following symptoms:
- Blind obedience to authority
- Lack of critical thinking skills
- Inability to think independently
- Blind anger and agressesion towards those who are weaker
- Inability to feel sympathy and/or regret
- Lack of empathy and/or love
- Inability to form genuine interpersonal relationships with ones peers (that are not based on coercion or fear)
- Forming strong parasitic relationships with authority figures to the point of obsession
- Delusional visions of the world including the past, present, and future
- Delusional visions of ones place in society, specifically the idea that they will gain leverage in society by bowing down to authority
- Severe lack of class consciousness to the point that they feel closer to the capitalists then their peers (workers)
This list is not complete, people who have CBS are highly advised to read some theory and maybe try feeling human emotions. However if left untreated for too long it may become terminal and kill any ounce of humanity left in the person. As of now there is no cure, however therapy is a great treatment (effectiveness may vary).
This is the most dystopian shit I’ve read this week. Impressive, all things considered.
So explaining reality to a Trump supporter is Trump Derangement Syndrome? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Unironically yes.
“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
The real mental illness here is the “Trump following syndrome”, where people still support him despite what he does.
Since when do senators diagnose shit?
The senators who proposed this should be removed from office. This is beyond a farce.
And what Trump is doing it not? The only laws that still exist, is the ones that repress people they don’t like.
So that shit won’t be covered by insurance either, so here we are right back at square one, you illiterate fucks
And this is exactly why those “red flag” laws are a bad idea.
For example, the state can determine anyone who hates Trump is not able to procure a firearm…
I’ve always thought Trump Derangement Syndrome better described MAGATurds. THEY are the ones who are absurdly and inexplicably in love with him, no matter how poorly he treats them.
Geez, all of this because Obama just had to wear that tan suit in 2014.
that bougie dijon mustard he used on his hotdog.
It’s a social construct. Much of the population wont understand due to lacking education and deficient knowledge base. Hopefully there will be further explanations for laymen in the future DSM5.
So Gender Dysphoria is bullshit, but TDS requires tax payer money thrown at it…
Shut up GOP you’re drunk
TDS was always a sham, a way to write off all concerns and protests of Trump. “Oh don’t listen to them, those who question Fearless Leader only do so because they’re insane. He is perfect and loves everybody”
the fucked up part is if there is a president after Trump it will take decades to fix the damage he did in 2 months.
we’re still suffering from Regan’s decisions
There will be a president after him. He cannot live forever, thank fuck.
Whether that president is actually democratically elected is yet to be seen.
Honestly if the US doesn’t have a democratically elected president in 4 years its not going to have a president ever, given the last 2 months I doubt there would be anything left to be president of if Trump manages to keep himself in powr for however long he has left to live.
