Fear is the mind-killer. Any article stating that we should be "afraid," "terrified," etc., plays in [1]

Hi,

This is my first blog post. It won’t be refined, I promise that.

I just saw a post, whose contents I won’t specifically criticize, stating something about something Trump thought or did being “terrifying.”

What’s the matter with this notion?

When was the last time you read, saw, or were personally involved in a battle, argument, tussle, idea-exchange of any sort where your mentor exhorted you to be “terrified” in order to win?

I read the book Dune. I liked that line “fear is the mind-killer.”

Let’s not be terrified of Trump, or fascism, or Republicans, or racists, or classists, or anyone.

Let’s be strong, hit back, and make them afraid of us.
