At the #BRICS summit currently held in #SouthAfrica, #XiJinping was supposed to hold a speech. Instead this speech was presented by #China's commerce minister #WangWentao - as could be seen in countless coverages of the summit.
At a press conference held in #Beijing, regime speaker #WangWenbin counterfactually insisted that Xi had held his speech. And on MadElon's birdy network, toxic messenger #HuaChunying quoted from Xi's speech.

Too much #cultofpersonality. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/aug/23/xi-jinping-brics-china-fails-to-give-key-speech

@Melody
It is interesting that #stupidity as defined by #Bonhoeffer is not related to #intelligence. It is more like a psychological infection which causes #stupid behavior. Rather than a #CultOfPersonality, today's #MAGA and other #conservative and #conspiracy movements are cults of stupidity.

#ScottishIndependence was never about individuals. Those who said "I just hate that #Salmond" in 2014 and those who think the sun shines out #Sturgeon's arse now both make the same mistake. Whoever ends up leading the SNP will not be the messiah - the people have the power. #CultOfPersonality

#CTI down with #CultOfPersonality

This article is well worth reading.

I found it to be a good summation of the current flurry of indignation/adoration around Elon Manchild.

TLDR; He's too horrible to amplify his every brain fart (cv. Drumf). The media should focus on issues not people.

Twitter may survive but personally I'm not wading through raw sewage to harvest the gold underneath (and have quit twitter for good). For journalists it's a much harder choice as quitting the bird cuts off valuable firsthand sources.

Great article from [tw] @ whizyk @Vox about #Musk and all the components of #Twitter chaos rn.

#CultOfPersonality being just one:
"Musk’s cult of personality as a real-life Tony Stark built hype and brand loyalty, and this personal brand helped catapult his businesses to incredible success..."

Elegimos recordar el trabajo con un clásico: #CultOfPersonality. Previo al potente riff que le da inicio, la canción abre con un pasaje del “Extracto a las Bases” de Malcolm X del año 63. Durante su desarrollo tambiwn aparecen discursos de Kennedy y Roosevelt.

Remember that golden statue of the #formerguy (with way too big hands with the pot belly missing) at #CPAC?
Turns out it was made in #China. That's #Trumpism in a nutshell: a crude mix of #cultofpersonality, hollow #materialism and #greed. And yes: lying, because the creators of the statue first claimed it had been made in #Mexico before admitting to it being from China.

What kind of a giant clusterfuck have the #UnitedStates become?

Utterly #cringeworthy and factually wrong: Here's a pic of the golden #Trump statue erected (uhumm..) at #CPAC - complete with a magic wand and a #constitution that the #formerguy blatantly disrespected when he sent his mob of #deplorables after the #legislative.

Rather than «We the People», the paper in the right hand should say «Me, myself and I».

The #cultofpersonality that is #Trumpism will break the #GOP apart and render it irrelevant. Sad, so sad.
#UnitedStates

Seen the ongoing an unhinged #cultofpersonality focusing on a sore loser who rather attacked the #constitution and the #legislative than to admit defeat, the #GOP should change its name to #TrumpParty officially.
The abbreviation TP would be very fitting for this mix of hard neoliberals, religious bigots, conspiracy nutties and white supremacists: TP, it's what you wipe your arse with after all! So in the end it's full of shit. As I said, very fitting!
#UnitedStates

And no: Sadly there is no remedy or vaccination to cure this brand of gullible #idiocy that has become the trademark of #Trumpism.
Add this entirely unhinged #QAnon nonsense, and what you get is a #toxic movement based on a #cultofpersonality.

Yes: this indeed is a religious #cult much rather than a political movement. If the #GOP wants to survive as a party, it should cut ties with these fringe loonies ASAP. The current #impeachment is a prime opportunity to do just that. #UnitedStates.

Dear #GOP: When facing an uneasy choice between #constitutionality and respect for #democracy on one hand and a #cultofpersonality focussing on an unhinged sociopath without any principles, choose wisely. Or you might end up on the wrong side of history and torn apart between an angry mob and politicians willing to work within a given frameset of institutions and rules.

The very existence of the GOP depends on this decision: Will it become the party of armed #insurrection?
#UnitedStates

Despite all the tax cuts, #Wallstreet all too obviously betted on a #Biden win in the #elections2020.
So it's not all that surprising that #LouDobbs is being taken off the air by #FoxNews' business channel now. No need for a fanboy of a sore loser and that #cultofpersonality anymore - could only hurt the channel's reputation as a news source on the economy and business. Don't let that door hit you, sycophant Lou!
