But why anyone would believe, follow, support, or agree with these people is a total mystery to many of us. So who are these people who line up for Tweetster rallies, send him money, threaten anyone who doesn&#8217;t back him, get all their &#8220;facts&#8221; from Fox News and talk radio, and apparently sin as much as anyone else but don&#8217;t let themselves enjoy it or admit it to anyone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It turns out that the personality of the authoritarian <em>leader<\/em> is quite different from that of the followers. While the authoritarian leader is driven by a sense of <em>&#8220;I&#8217;m only okay when I have absolute control,&#8221;<\/em> social psychologist Bob Altermeyer studied the followers of such people for many years and found they share<\/span><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"> <a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Right-wing_authoritarian_personality\">several traits and beliefs:<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">A willing <em>submissiveness<\/em> to those they accept as established and legitimate authorities;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0Ongoing general <em>aggressiveness<\/em> against people they perceive to be sanctioned <em>(against)<\/em> by established authorities; and<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">A high degree of adherence to the narrow social <em>conventions<\/em> they perceive to be endorsed by those they accept as established authorities.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">So for the followers there seems to be a lot here about <em>&#8220;I&#8217;m only okay when someone very strong is in complete control,&#8221; <\/em>but to a lot of us that<em> s<\/em>ounds like something <em>&#8220;devoutly to be eschewed,&#8221;<\/em> as one old sailor once said about being in a hurricane in a sailboat.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The dynamic between the authoritarian leader and his (usually) followers is that he gives them both license and approval for physical aggression against those who are perceived as inferior and nonconforming in various ways. They share an unspoken ethos that the<em> most nonconforming<\/em> deserve the <em>worst<\/em> <em>punishments,<\/em> the most powerful deserve the most deference, and apparently, that delivering punishment to those the leader pegs as &#8220;enemies&#8221; is <em>irresistible<\/em>. <em>(picture the mob-mind at the Capitol on Jan 6&#8230;)\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Curiously, these followers also share a narrow conventionalism about how people should behave, even in their private lives. In that sense, many are religious fundamentalists, with limited abilities to discern or perhaps even imagine shades of gray. In this sense they seem deeply imprisoned by the absolutism of their beliefs.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">We close tonight with a few interesting related research findings for the US:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">&#8212; Authoritarian voters have generally preferred Republican leaders; <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">&#8212; Tweetster supporters are substantially more likely than other <a style=\"color: #000000;\" title=\"Republican Party (United States)\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Republican_Party_(United_States)\">Republicans<\/a> to score highly on authoritarian aggression and group-based dominance; and<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">&#8211;Authoritarianism is different from Conservatism because <em>authoritarianism<\/em> reflects <em>aversion to differences across space<\/em> (i.e. diversity of people and beliefs at a given moment) while <em>conservatism<\/em> reflects <em>aversion to changes over time.<\/em>&#8220;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">We all see and feel these deep divisions in our country about very basic values of what is true or not true, good or bad, desirable or undesirable, fair or unfair, right or wrong, and find it puzzling that there could be such broad disagreement about such fundamental perceptions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">On reflection it seems extremely unlikely that these nation-threatening divisions just happened by themselves.
