  Thats the thing, if you’re feeling lost and powerless, having someone “strong” tell you that it’s because of some other group and telling you what to do and what to think probably feels really encouraging and positive. The fact you’re even more powerless in that situation probably doesn’t even register.

    I wonder how many of those folks grew up under an authoritarian parenting style too?

      Authoritarian parents, authoritarian schools, and an authoritarian religion.

      It takes effort to break free from that kind of upbringing.
