Who Has Ownership of Your Brain?

The title is a question I intend to ask of particular friends of mine.   All three have gone abroad, and within a few years, they have turned ‘rabid’.

The First had gone to the United States where he has turned into a top Trump toe cleaner.  He doesn’t know Trump, and is more likely to be deported now that Trump is President.   Yet, he spends his hours on Facebook, making post after post, supporting Trump.

If anyone posts anything ‘anti-Trump’ he will race around the Internet to find some Pro-Trump something that he can post.

I thought he was the only person who suffered brain damage due to his travel abroad.  Ha!

There I was, in a conversation with a friend who went to England.  All of a sudden, as if a switch were thrown, he began to spew such anger and hatred against Vladimir Putin.

Here was a guy, a quiet, calm, even tempered man, whose voice I had never heard raised, almost shrieking about the President of Russia.

Yes, shortly after he apologised, but the fact he felt so strongly, felt so much hatred for Putin, it was beyond psychotic, beyond ridiculous.  A child claiming there is a monster in his closet is less illogical than this friend.

As bad as my London Yardie was, my German breddren was even worse.  The way he got on about Putin was so far from logic, so emotional that I realised, he had been brain washed.

My European friends had been brainwashed by the governments of England and Germany to be so vehemently anti-Russia.

It wasn’t like my Foolish American Trump Toe Rag who genuflects at the mention of Trump, for love is not anywhere as powerful as Hate.

Few appreciate how powerful Hate is.  That to provoke hatred will have people acting against their own interest, harming themselves, all to display their hate.

Something happened to my friends in Europe.
