(CNN)We have a bully in our midst, some therapists and school counselors say, traumatizing the most vulnerable of us. That bully is the 2016 presidential campaign, including the so-called "Trump Effect."

Well we have just had 8 years of a Muslim poofter and his GOPe collaborators.. and that didn’t so much damage us as make us furious.
Yay! Beta males for Hillary !
When you think about it. The media is the one who drives everything. 24/7 news cycle is killing us.
But never fear! Obama wants us to have fewer outlets for news so that must be on the agenda ... heard that on Rush today.
They suck.
Expect it to be the top Halloween mask this year.
And 100s of thousands fleeing “micro-aggressions at having to see it.
We do have a bully in our midst and it is the ruling Elite propped up by the MSM.
DT is standing up to the bullies & I stand with him.
The media includes the smallest TV station in the smallest market. Watch the local news. Every station will have the exact same stories. They may switch the lead but they’re all on the same “news events”. I wonder if there’s only one person here in Houston who assigns all of the reporters the events they’re supposed to cover that day.
The problem is car wrecks and a liquor store robbery is one thing. But when people are getting ALL of their news from one source, the powers can tell the people anything they want to tell them.
The new progressive plan:
* they’re smart, rational, educated, moral, good
* smear everyone who holds a dissenting view as irrational (phobic, bigot) and/or evil
* “Let’s ban hate speech!” It sounds good because it seems like you’re saying “let’s make inciting a riot/lynching illegal.”
* your conservative views are motivated by hate, it is hate speech, shut up
* words are associated with violence, allowing people to define expression of dissenting views as equal to assault
* You don’t shut up? You’re bullying me. Continue to spew hate speech? You hurt me first, I can physically attack you.
* You teach those hateful, violent views in a group? We can ban your group as a precursor to violence. And we can threaten to destroy property and lives because you started it by triggering us.
Social justice warriors are already responding to “hate speech” with physical assaults on people. When they steal signs, rip up posters or hit people, they honestly believe YOU are the bully because you dared hurt them first with your hateful views. “Safe spaces” where no one can counter your narrative further this view, because violating your pure self with contrary facts or opinions other than validating you are equated with assault.
You see the early stages of that process on news stations when they issue trigger warnings before showing conservative events and speakers, pre-positioning the content as unacceptable, insane.
Censorship in the name of feelings is already standard on Facebook, Twitter, ramping up on Linkedin.
I fear the latter stages are setting in for society, like when BLM attacks white people and gets a pass because how dare that white person be there. Conservatives and whites getting turned into dhimmi or untouchables, tolerated at best, regularly subject to regular humiliation and periodic pogroms because how dare they not belong to the upper class.
Yeah, my psyche is toast. Who can I sue and what can I get?
shaking free the shackles of political correctness, thought control and heterophobia can be stressful but they will be better for it
The country is seeing the kind of man who built this country to greatness, and the average latte drinker has no idea of what big balls are.
The left has been the bully for far too long!
Bloomer has a similar article out...must be the meme du jour..and of course, blame Trump. They just can’t get it through their thick skulls just how fed up people are. That and they’re panicking about their own futures now that their part has been exposed.
What CNN is doing is called “projection”.
They are accusing Trump of what they are doing.
The MSM is trying to bully the American public into submission with 24-7 hate and propaganda.

On a more positive note, it is clear that the media bullies’ playground mugging of Trump has been a life changer for him.
As he dusts himself off, picks himself up and looks around he realizes that he needs to hang out with allies.
He needs a lot of support and protection.
His next revelation is a lot of the other kids have been beaten up in the school-yard as well, called nasty names, had their lunch-money stolen, and their dreams crushed by the bullies in DC, NY and LA.
He realizes that he and his friends need to stick together and when necessary fight together.
When they do that they have created something new—the gang of the righteous.
Welcome to the team, Donald!
I couldn’t agree with you more.
