21st Century cargo cult=teabaggers
Ancestor worship. Battling culture change. Anti technology with desires for it's fruits. Bat sh*t crazy thoughts and actions.

Key differences between them and the Lakota: the teabaggers inhabit the same society they perceive as "oppressing" them.

The Lakota, on the other hand, weren't just being oppressed, they were being exterminated.

The Tea-Tards also have access to far deeper understanding of that "oppressive" society (i.e., their own) than the American Indians did.

However, they simply choose not to think in order to understand what's happening, because thinkin's hard work.
