You can't change the definition to fit your disapproval. Come back to me when you see flags with his name on them flying from the backs of Teslas and Priuses.

Sure I can. That’s the liberal way. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander. People putting Trump flags on their vehicles doesn’t mean Trump is a cult leader.

Qualities & Characteristics of a Cult | Cult Research

  • The group displays an excessively zealous and unquestioning commitment to its leader, and (whether he is alive or dead) regards his belief system, ideology, and practices as the Truth, as law.
  • Questioning, doubt, and dissent are discouraged or even punished.
  • Mind-altering practices (such as meditation, chanting, speaking in tongues, denunciation sessions, or debilitating work routines) are used in excess and serve to suppress doubts about the group and its leader(s).
  • The leadership dictates, sometimes in great detail, how members should think, act, and feel (e.g., members must get permission to date, change jobs, or marry—or leaders prescribe what to wear, where to live, whether to have children, how to discipline children, and so forth).
  • The group is elitist, claiming a special, exalted status for itself, its leader(s), and its members (e.g., the leader is considered the Messiah, a special being, an avatar—or the group and/or the leader is on a special mission to save humanity).
  • The group has a polarized, us-versus-them mentality, which may cause conflict with the wider society.
  • The leader is not accountable to any authorities (unlike, for example, teachers, military commanders, or ministers, priests, monks, and rabbis of mainstream religious denominations).
  • The group teaches or implies that its supposedly exalted ends justify whatever means it deems necessary. This may result in members participating in behaviors or activities they would have considered reprehensible or unethical before joining the group (e.g., lying to family or friends, or collecting money for bogus charities).
  • The leadership induces feelings of shame and/or guilt in order to influence and control members. Often this is done through peer pressure and subtle forms of persuasion.
  • Subservience to the leader or group requires members to cut ties with family and friends, and radically alter the personal goals and activities they had before joining the group.
  • The group is preoccupied with bringing in new members.
  • The group is preoccupied with making money.
  • Members are expected to devote inordinate amounts of time to the group and group-related activities.
  • Members are encouraged or required to live and/or socialize only with other group members.
  • The most loyal members (the “true believers”) feel there can be no life outside the context of the group. They believe there is no other way to be, and often fear reprisals to themselves or others if they leave—or even consider leaving—the group.

Many of these apply to Fauci. If you don’t think so then you are part of his cult.

I thought that emissions testing ended about a year ago

Tennessee decided that long ago to end the program - goals were met, blah, blah, blah; but the EPA (feds) haven't blessed the decision apparently. I don't see how emissions testing of cars could have been granted to the feds by the Constitution, so in theory the decision should belong to the state. Of course, some damn fed lawyer would likely make a case for "general welfare" and liberal judges and SC would agree.

Trumpism is a cult whether a member displays a sticker or not. Everything In Trump World screams cult. All the way down to a mystical leader named Q making predictions of his miraculous return to power in spite of the constitution.

If you can't nip it in the bud, you will always be playing catchup. China owes the world big time for their stupidity and duplicity. The covid costs will accrue for a long time, and they need to be charged to China.

And yet no one bats an eye over getting a flu shot but somehow the vaccine for COVID causes people to hyperventilate

If you don't know the difference between the flu vaccine and this one it's obvious you are either being purposefully obtuse or absolutely uninformed. Nothing like this vaccine has been attempted at this level with so little study and information.

It's almost like some of you are excited by this.

Posting a link without commentary to a covid story about an anti vax conservative Nashville talk radio personality on a Tennessee based political forum in a thread about vaccines is about as relevant as you could probably get.
