Domineering-Bullies find it easy to Dominate people who do-not-think-very-much; who are willing to accept the isolated-
and-disconnected: assumptions, attitudes, ideals, values, principles, perceptions, virtues, etc. which Domineering-
Bullies spoon-feed them. Thus, Domineering-Bullies regularly discourage all forms of honest thinking and thoughtfulness
and discourage all thoughtful-communications, intimacies and so discourage all Open-and-Honest: dialogue, writing and 
reading.

In keeping with the above "thinking"; Domineering-Bullies often try to trap people-who-think-too-much, BY:

 1. Asking misleading-questions and leading-questions - - - and insist then on quick, short, thoughtless responses on 
    the spot - - - with sound-bites that are trimmed of any thoughtful substance, before they are reported in misleading
    ways in the "News-Media".

 2. Reducing "news-reporting" to short-sound-bites that do not interfere with the delivery of a steady-stream of profit-
    able advertising --- which helps to concentrate wealth and power more completely - - - into the hands of Domineering-
    Bullies who already have much more-than-enough.

 3. Mixing Entertainment-Programs and "News-Delivery-Programs; to distract true-thinkers who are threatening Domineering-
    Bullies'-Programs of Concentrating-Wealth-and-Powers into their own: Greedy-Hands, Bank-Accounts, Stocks and Giant-
    Corporations which they own themselves.

 4. Discouraging: Generosity, Hospitality, Hospitals-Services while protecting FOR-GREAT-PROFIT-HEALTH-INSURANCE-
    CORPORATIONS - - - that avoid paying for Preventive-Health-Care, Communal-Health-Care, and Health-Care-for-Pre-
    Existing-Conditions --- which undermine the GREAT-PROFITS for big-investors in the FOR-GREAT-PROFIT-HEALTH-INSURANCE-
    CORPORATIONS.

 5. Depriving people of quite time to: think about, study, gather-facts-about, and to formulate-gracious-responses to 
    their leading and misleading questions and dogmatic assertions that are made in contentious ways.

 6. Providing a constant stream of distracting and confusing activities in the form of busy-work and/or entertainments.

While they are trying to entrap vulnerable people; Domineering-Bullies seek to be invulnerable at all times by:

 1. Not engaging in Open-and-Honest-Dialogues about clear articulations of balanced clusters of mutually-complementary 
    and mutually supportive: ideals, values, principles, hopes, aspirations and virtues.

 2. Not taking the risk of affirming or demonstrating any clear support for the essential-foundations-and-integrities ---
    of both-personal-and-communal integration-processes and present-integrities --- which Domineering-Bullies try to keep
    hidden and/or keep in situates of confusion and/or chaos.

 3. Spending more time, effort and energy upon: negations, contentions, conflicts, polarizations, dichotomizations, 
    threats, attacks, fighting, violence, battles, excommunications, etc. - - - than upon the mitigations of them and/or 
    of the many patterns of alienations that they create - - - because of Domineering-Bullies being tenaciously dedicated 
    to their own Alienative-Processes of Concentrating Wealth-and-Powers for themselves.

 4. Objecting to others saying what they affirm, believe and demonstrate --- rather than themselves as Domineering-
    Bullies being vulnerable in saying what they affirm, believe and demonstrate --- to concentrate more wealth and power 
    into their own hands, stocks, bonds, and banks - - - always themselves avoiding Open-and-Honest-Dialogues about 
    Patterns-of-Fear-and-Alienation that are undermining Civility and Civilization.  

 5. Fragmenting the Whole-Spectrum of Mutually-Complimentary-Affirmations of Mutually-Complimentary-Virtues --- focusing
    instead upon isolated claims about Absolute-Exclusive-Truth and about the Unchangeable-Validity of Idolatrous-Ideals
    that serve the "needs" of those whose purpose in live is to concentrate-wealth-and-power without-limits and without 
    any concern about the costs to the Whole-Crew of God's Astronomically-Tiny Space-Ship-Earth with Limited amounts of:
    Fossil-Fuels, U-235,  U-238,  and Pure:  Air,  Water,  Soils, and  Minerals and no significant access to any Extra-
    Terrestrial supplies because Space-Ship-Earth is Essentially-Isolated from all Extra-Terrestrial locations where such 
    resources could be found and/or used to re-supply Space-Ship-Earth.

 6. Augmenting their Myth-of-Redemptive-Violence - - - with its Big-Brothers; The Myths-of-Trickle-Down-Wealth-and-Power,
    Money-Falls-on-the-Poor; Redemptive-Coercion, Redemptive-Profitable-Prisons, Redemptive-Arrogance, Redemptive-Wars,
    Redemptive-Terrorism, Redemptive-Unilateral-Actions, Redemptive-Hubris, Redemptive-Self-Righteousness, etc.

 7. Augmenting the Myth that "The-Economy" is an Independent-Reality from which the Wealthy Need-Protection so that they,
    The Wealthy, will be able to help the Poor who are their primary concern.  The Wealthy imply that "The-Economy" is an
    "Objective-Reality" rather than a Reflexive-Reality that is founded upon:  Honesty, Authenticity, Personal-Integrities,
    Communal-Integrities, Personal-Integration-Processes, Communal-Integration-Processes, Open-and-Honest-Dialogues, LOVE,
    Being-Together-In-Shalom's-Gracious-Ways, Generosity, Hospitality, Healing-Hospitals, Healing-Services,
