This is the assumption that the purveyors of socialism and other "disruptive" social planning ideas operate under. It is really nothing different than the Nazis or the Soviets used to attempt mind control over large percentages of their populations. The CIA has been researching this stuff for decades. Once the program has been put in place, you control 75% of the targeted group and you eliminate or subdue the 25% who can not be controlled.. The 5 to 10% who are totally immersed in the ideas you have hypnotized them with become your violent rabble rousers. (Antifa and other extremest groups). That explains your seemingly totally insane Sylvestors, Ryanakas, ZZPats, WarfRats, Brumars, etc. that you see on this board. How many people can – or how many people can’t – be hypnotized? David Spiegel MD, professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Stanford University has been quoted as estimating that about 25% of people cannot be hypnotized. So while the exact number can’t truly be known, various percentages are frequently bandied about. To test this hypothesis out, Spiegel and his team used MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scans to try and figure out why some people were more susceptible than others. They discovered that people who were more likely to be hypnotized show more activity in areas of the brain concerned with executive control and attention. People who are easily hypnotized tend to lose track of time and get lost in a book or movie. Speaking to the Los Angeles Times, Dr. Spiegel said that highly hypnotizable people: "Can readily immerse themselves in thinking about things without having their attention interrupted by pesky reminders of reality." It’s thought that roughly between 5-10% of people are highly susceptible to hypnotic suggestion, while up to 79% of the population are considered moderately susceptible. https://hypnosistrainingacademy.com/hypnosis-who-is-susceptible/

I NEVER defend antifa or socialists. You're using them as a foil to cover your siding with fascists Looks like you're claiming anyone to the left of the Nazis as antifa. Whatever. The difference is the reaction of the President and his followers. He and they both recognize they're on the same side as the Nazis. Witness: why did longnshort recognize James Alex Fields as someone he needed to defend by badmouthing his victim?
