The Cult of Psychotic Contempt
The Psychological Warfare to Destroy Trump and the MAGA Movement—For Exposing and Dismantling the Corrupt, Self-Serving Swamp.
This essay exposes the mass psychological conditioning, media propaganda, and institutional corruption behind the left’s obsessive contempt for Trump—rage not rooted in reason, but in fear, projection, and the threat he poses to their self-serving power structure. Part Two dives into the narcissistic psychology behind the anti-Trump resistance—exposing the unhinged ideologues who vandalize Tesla in fits of woke rage.
The Ritual of Hatred
Hatred of Donald Trump has moved beyond politics. It’s now ritual—tied to identity. For many on the left, hating him is a moral badge and social currency. They don’t argue policy. They chant slurs: Nazi. Fascist. Racist. Rapist. Felon. They don’t engage—they condemn. And nearly every smear has been disproven or grossly distorted.
Let’s deal in facts—not feelings.
Convicted felon? False. As of April 30, 2025, Trump has not been convicted of any legitimate crime. The sole charge stems from a politicized trial over a bookkeeping entry—something no one else would’ve been prosecuted for. Legal experts across the spectrum call it what it is: lawfare.
Bankrupted businesses? Trump has overseen more than 500 companies. Only six filed for Chapter 11—standard in capital-heavy industries. He never filed personal bankruptcy. The talking point is a smear built on ignorance.
Serial adulterer? Irrelevant. JFK, Clinton, LBJ—Washington is full of sinners. Trump's personal life isn’t unique. It’s a distraction, not a disqualifier.
Racist? Flat-out lie. He delivered record-low Black and Hispanic unemployment, passed bipartisan justice reform, and expanded Opportunity Zones. There is zero evidence Trump is a racist.
Rapist? The E. Jean Carroll case? No police report. No witnesses. No timeline. No criminal charge. A jury rejected the rape claim. What remained was a defamation judgment under the lowest civil standard. Her story was politically convenient—and unprovable.
But the left doesn’t care. Their contempt isn’t about truth—it’s about status. In elite circles, hating Trump is the price of admission. It signals you're moral, enlightened, superior. Hating Trump isn’t political—it’s performative. The bigger the lie, the more it flatters the tribe. It’s not about debate. It’s not about reason. It’s about signaling.
For the Cult and the Curious
The true believers—and the paid propagandists—won’t just disagree with my assessment. They’ll mock, sneer, and lash out. Because I’m not just criticizing their politics and ideology—I’m challenging their identity. And that shatters their worldview and ego.
To them, progressivism isn’t a political movement—it’s a moral religion. Trump is evil incarnate. That’s why facts and reason won’t move them. Their contempt isn’t rational—it’s ritual. Conditioned. Repeated. Inflamed by propaganda.
This essay isn’t for the cult. It’s for the ones beginning to question it.
The Cult of Contempt and Groupthink
This isn’t normal politics. It’s mass formation psychosis—real-time narrative hypnosis fueled by fear, isolation, repetition, and social pressure. The term, made popular by psychologist Mattias Desmet, describes how entire populations become obsessed with a single idea—no matter how irrational.
In this case: Trump is evil. Not wrong. Not misguided. Evil.
It’s both ideological and clinical. Studies show progressives—especially young liberal women—suffer higher rates of anxiety, depression, and emotional volatility. In 2020, Pew reported that 62% of liberal white women under 30 had a diagnosed mental health condition—twice the rate of their conservative peers. In that landscape, the media’s doomsday narrative about Trump wasn’t just persuasive—it was irresistible.
The media, academia, and cultural institutions fed that narrative relentlessly. They created a moral panic so complete that facts became irrelevant. Trump was cast as the source of all suffering, inequality, and division—a cartoon villain in a morality play written by coastal elites, echoed by celebrities, and enforced by Big Tech and AI filters.
This isn’t debate—it’s religious fervor. A cult of moral panic, where facts are heresy and skepticism is blasphemy.
And let’s be clear: this is projection from the left. They call Trump a dictator while demanding censorship. They scream “threat to democracy” while cheering FBI raids, show trials, and narrative suppression.
They label him authoritarian—but they were the ones who pushed vaccine mandates, punished dissent, censored speech, and tried to jail their political rival.
Trump isn’t perfect. But even at his worst, he never came close to the institutional control now wielded by his enemies. The hatred they project onto him is the truth they fear in themselves.
Fear of the Mirror
The left’s contempt for Trump isn’t about what he might do—it’s about what he already did: he exposed them.
He exposed the failures of the bureaucracy. He showed the press wasn’t a watchdog—it was a propaganda arm. He revealed the fraud of the expert class. He pulled back the curtain on the intel agencies, corrupt prosecutors, globalist grift, and the smug authoritarianism hiding behind liberal slogans.
Trump forced the country to face an uncomfortable truth: the system is rigged, and its loudest defenders are its most corrupt. That’s why they hate him. Not because he’s dangerous—but because he said the quiet part out loud.
Their rage isn’t about policy. It’s psychological. And it’s personal.
Manufactured and Delusional Contempt
What’s worse than the lies is the smug, morally superior tone TDS-infected social media posters deliver them with. It’s not just hate—it’s contempt. A mix of arrogance and ignorance built on claims long debunked. Only someone sealed in an echo chamber could spew what floods social media every day.
And many of those voices aren’t even real.
In Q3 2024, Meta took down 1.1 billion fake accounts—over a third of the platform’s users. These bots and fake profiles don’t just troll—they amplify propaganda, distort perception, and manufacture the illusion of consensus. Foreign actors, paid activists, and AI-fed networks flood the system to reinforce the contempt narrative and drown dissent.
It’s not organic. It’s an operation.
Weaponized Narratives and Rage Conditioning
Psychotic contempt is a product of the left’s propaganda machine—weaponized narratives, psychological conditioning, and endless repetition aimed at the woke progressive steeped in grievance and moral superiority.
Those who’ve been exposed will do anything to silence the man who pulled back the curtain: lie, censor, even jail their political enemy.
The Democratic Party is now the party of hate—wrapped in the illusion of virtue. Their contempt for Trump and his supporters isn’t based on reason. It’s emotional, ideological, and authoritarian. They push open borders, censorship, and amnesty—while vilifying anyone who disagrees.
Dissent isn’t debated. It’s smeared, silenced, and disparaged.
Final Thoughts
Contempt is stronger than hate—and more revealing. Hate is emotional. Contempt is calculated. It flows from a sense of superiority. The people who loathe Trump don’t just oppose him—they see him, and his supporters, as beneath them. That’s why they mock, smear, and justify censorship, lawfare, and character assassination. Contempt gives them license to abandon the rules they pretend to defend.
Trump isn’t hated for what he’s done—but for what he exposed. He pulled back the curtain on fraud, rot, fake news, cognitively diminished Joe Biden, the ruling class’s addiction to control, and deception. He embarrassed the press, humiliated the bureaucracy, and shattered the illusion of elite competence.
And they will never forgive him.
They didn’t just oppose him—they launched a full-spectrum assault: propaganda, lies, indictments, lawfare, even assassination attempts. “Nazi.” “Rapist.” “Felon.” “Threat to democracy.” These weren’t arguments. They were weapons—designed to destroy, not persuade.
They failed.
The people saw through it. The more they smeared Trump, the clearer it became: this was never about him—it was about power. And Trump stood in the way. It’s narrative warfare. Psychological manipulation. A last-ditch effort to crush a populist rebellion they couldn’t control.
The left’s contempt isn’t rooted in what Trump is—but in what he revealed. And that mirror cuts too deep. It’s not Trump who’s deranged—it’s the people who would burn the country down before admitting he was right.
Trump says it best: radical left lunatics.
Trump shattered the illusion. The rage isn’t about what he did—it’s about what he revealed: the lies, the grift, the contempt for reality. That’s why they hate him. Because he’s the red pill—the glitch in their simulation. The man who helped 77 million see the big con for what it is.
As I wrote in The Marxist Matrix, the regime survives on illusion—curated narratives, manipulated consent, and manufactured rage. But once the red pill is taken, there’s no going back. Their hatred isn’t political—it’s desperation. They’re trying to protect the system he’s tearing down.
But the Matrix is cracking. And contempt and rage won’t stop what’s coming.
Appendix: Understanding the Psychology Behind the Contempt
There’s something deeper—systemic and psychological—at play. The persistent, irrational contempt toward Trump isn’t just political disagreement. It fits the pattern of what’s known in psychology as mass formation or group psychosis—a phenomenon where individuals surrender independent thought to a collective emotional narrative, usually driven by fear, repetition, and a manufactured moral framework.
A 2023 study in Current Psychology ties radical activism to the dark triad: narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy. These traits—entitlement, moral grandiosity, and lack of empathy—explain why certain progressive professionals see vandalism not as crime, but as righteousness. They’re not protesting—they’re performing.
Here are key reasons so many people continue to spread hateful lies about Trump—even when the facts contradict their beliefs:
1. Mass Formation Psychosis
Coined by psychologist Mattias Desmet and echoed by thinkers like Robert Malone and Thomas Sowell, this describes when large groups become hypnotized by a unifying narrative. In Trump’s case, the media created a mythic villain—and people internalized that hating him equals virtue. Once in that state, facts don’t matter. Only emotional reinforcement and group identity do.
2. Narrative Addiction
People are addicted to the story: Trump as fascist, racist, rapist, dictator. It gives them moral purpose. To admit they were wrong would collapse their entire worldview—and expose their complicity in the smear campaign. So they double down.
3. Moral Panic and Projection
Trump Derangement Syndrome is a modern moral panic. He’s a stand-in for everything progressives hate about traditional America—capitalism, nationalism, masculinity, dissent. They project their own authoritarian impulses onto him (“dictator,” “threat to democracy”) while championing censorship, lawfare, and regime overreach.
4. Tribal Signaling
For many, hating Trump isn’t about reason—it’s a badge of belonging. In elite media, academia, and progressive circles, you’re expected to regurgitate the approved slurs. It’s not information—it’s tribal code. Question the narrative, and you risk social exile.
5. Fear of Truth
Trump challenges the entire progressive worldview: secure borders, energy independence, deregulation, economic nationalism. He exposed the failures of the system—and that terrifies them. So they smear, slander, and suppress to protect the illusion.
6. Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS)
The term began as satire, but the behavior is real. TDS reflects an obsessive psychological fixation that overrides logic, evidence, and self-interest. Though not a clinical diagnosis, its traits mirror mass psychosis: moral absolutism, compulsive narrative conformity, and identity fused with hatred. When contempt becomes self-definition, truth no longer matters.
The “Pop Art Protest of Rage” captures what mass formation looks like—rage without reason, inflamed by propaganda.
This is so satisfying to read! “The lowest civil standards”. “The rage isn’t about what he did—it’s about what he revealed: the lies, the grift, the contempt for reality. “ Wow!!!
They've been given over to reprobate thinking and there's no way out of that short of divine intervention.
