This a new thing to me. For example......TDS. Trump Derangement Syndrome. Someone coined that so it could be thrown (by the faithful) at a person who is opposed (whether for a valid reason or otherwise) as if it defeated that person's position. The latest is: 'Never Trumper.' Bloody Hell. That even made it to the Open Hearing today. Was it the GOP Hero Lawyer who tossed that at Taylor and the other bloke yesterday, as if it was a cure all? Stupid stuff but very Goebells like.
TDS is when you choose to believe stuff that isn't true because the narrative is more important than the truth. For instance Trump never said all Mexicans are rapists and criminals. Nor did he say that Nazis were fine people but for TDS suffers those are absolute facts.
The term Never Trump predates the 2016 election. It’s not new. As I remember it, it was a self described movement, not one labeled by outsiders as a slur.
TDS is a spin-off of BDS, Bush Derangement Syndrome which Charles Krauthammer coined. There's a reason why memes are so popular. The brain is in charge of a lot of processes. It doesn't have a lot of time for complex processing. When you create simple catch all categories it becomes like a trash can that you can quickly process information through. Fake news. Racism [identity] - phobic It's a rubber stamp you can stamp on things so that you don't actually have to think about them.
