An indirect and subtly underhanded technique of manipulation of folks about something or someone without them realizing it’s going on.
The trumpmachine has systematically employed “fearing” to sow seeds of white supremacy via its stance on building a wall to keep “illegals” out of the United States.

What usually keeps us from doing really, really stupid things (like jumping into a pool of pirahnas for example).
Some people think fear is a bad thing.
Some fears are stupid.
Some people think fear is a bad thing.
Some fears are stupid.
The only thing to fear is fear itself.

Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate... leads to suffering.

The Fear is something we all experience after a hard night on it when you wake up the next day, with no knowledge of what happened, terrified of who you spoke to, what you said & what you did. Then whilst searchin... See more through your sent texts you feel even worse and want to hide under your duvet and never come out...sometimes it results to tears. In short- the worst feeling in the world ...ever.
The Fear- Crazy night...wake up... realise you have sent texts to everyone you know, even those you havent spoke to for years talking the biggest pile of crap every spoken. Followed by flashbacks of sheer evilness.

Last night Katie had to chug a bottle of NyQuil to battle the fear because she had a big day at work on Monday.

origin: William S Burroughs, LETTER FROM A MASTER ADDICT ON DANGEROUS DRUGS: "Cannabis Indica (hashish, marijuana). --The effects of this drug have been frequently and luridly described: disturbance of space-time perception, acute sensitivity to impressions, and flight of ideas, laughing jags, silliness. Marijuana is a sensitizer, and the results are not always pleasant. It makes a bad situation worse. Depression becomes despair, anxiety panic. I have already mentioned my horrible experience with marijuana during acute morphine withdrawal. I once gave marijuana to a guest who was mildly anxious about something ("On bum kicks" as he put it). After smoking half a cigarette he suddenly leapt to his feet screaming, "I got the fear!" and rushed out of the house."
