Think Deeply

I do not know the reasons you are abandoning democracy and supporting autocracy. I supposed you have become disillusioned at some point and just want to have one person in charge of everything. If history is any guide, in the long run, autocratic rule by law-breakers will not end well. Perhaps you find comfort in believing that Trump has been appointed by God, with the rationale that God used law-breakers and immoral men in the past to accomplish good things. But there has been no one like Trump and he more accurately fulfills the definition of the anti-Christ if you believe in that sort of thing. I encourage you to think beyond what Trump wants you to think. Find your moral and ethical center. Think deeply. Respond to your discomfort or numbness or dogmatic thinking with some introspection. (Re)read the history of Hitler’s actions and the suffering it caused. Actually, the book Strongmen by Ruth Ben-Ghiat is really good and delves into many autocratic rulers around the world including Orban and Trump and more. If Trump’s previous actions are any guide, he will abandon you or turn on you at some point. There is plenty of evidence of this happening to other Trump loyalists. When it happens to you, I hope you will reflect upon all that you have given up and what the impact on the world has been. I assume I will get an automated response to this letter, but I am happy I expressed my thoughts to you.
