| Daily Beast: White Boy Day Has Arrived for Donald Trump's Army of Nationalists | |
| 2016-02-02 | |
| Interesting article from the Daily Beast. If you wanted to make a study of hit pieces, this would probably be the lead piece in Hitting 101. It's one of the vilest pieces of greasy innuendo I've seen. Just for startsies... While Trump may publicly reject their support, "He rejects their support but we know that in his heart he loves them true." he is certainly helping them Since they eat, so's Dairy Queen helping them. Damn Dairy Queen anyway. Racists, that's what they are... when he retweets messages from WhiteGenocideTM, a pro-Hitler Twitter user who has posted interviews with Holocaust deniers and is fervently behind the GOP’s frontrunner. What was the content of the messages? Also on the coattails: Thom Robb’s Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, the Arkansas-based group that has recommended Trump’s opposition to brown-skinned immigrants and Muslim refugees as a great conversation-starter. It is. If you've got a malaria problem, start the conversation with mosquitoes. The Occidental Quarterly, a journal of white-nationalist thought, has declared the real-estate mogul’s candidacy “a game-changer.” We think the same on Rantburg, which may throw us into seedy company, but we do have empirical data... And then there’s the American National Super PAC, which is paying for the wave of robo-calls that are ringing in Iowans’ living rooms in support of Trump. Betcha the Iowans hate the robocalls more than they hate the originators, though they'd be happy to lynch the originators to stop the calls... Phone solicitations likely won’t budge the needle much for the GOP caucuses in Iowa. ... since robocalls are a stench and an abomination... Yet, they might mean more for the fortunes of these white nationalists. Tar and feathers, perhaps... These are no ordinary racists and bigots. No, no! They wail that the period of white supremacy and domination has ended in the United States—voting-rights laws and other civil-rights measures that enforced the 14th Amendment’s dictum to bring “equality before the law” sealed that deal for them. Suggested the 14th Amendment might be imperfect, did they? Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. Most say they believe “the Jews” disenfranchised whites. I have never in my life heard anyone say that, though I'm sure somebody, somewhere, has. I once had a fellow tell me that Catholics kept guns in their church basements, and that the Knights of Columbus were the officers for the army of insurrection that would impose Catholicism as the mandatory state religion. Now, with immigration feeding a demographic transformation that will turn white people into a minority alongside other minorities, white-ists
Two of the Republican challengers have Hispanic names. Ben Carson is, if you look closely, black. There are three Dem contenders: one is an old white male, with an old, tired agenda. One is an old, tired female, with an old, tired agenda insofar as she has one. One is a younger white male who in his time as governor of Maryland, where I live, passed a tax on rain and another on toilet flushes. Trump buys politicians by the half dozen. If he gave enough money to the editorial board of the Daily Beast they'd take their pants off and roll over. To survive, most of these movement groups say they require a whites-only nation state on a piece of the territory that once constituted the United States. I've never heard that argument from anyone white, though probably there are people who're dumb enough to come up with it. Like various black "liberation" movements here in the not so recent past. Yet they are divided over a strategy to get there. The political-action types seek a grip on the mainstream of white American thought. The Noble Souls at the Daily Beast are holding out. Others, like Dylann Roof, who is charged with killing nine black church attendees in Charleston, South Carolina, last June, are “vanguardists,” who prefer to just use guns in hope of starting a race war. (Roof has pleaded not guilty.) I'm not sure what a guy who can't even spell his first name correctly and has been in jug from before even this interminable campaign started, has anything to do with Donald Trump. The remainder of the piece is similarly "ugh." If it's not taught in political science classrooms then the educational system has punched through bottom. | |

| #3 Remember if you're not with them then you're all Nazis (not that they understand what National Socialists Workers Party really was). It's the Left's "N" word. |

| #2 Rolling stone - quality sources. Too pitch perfect to actually exist outside of the author's mind. These "White-ists" I suspect are the embodiment of the authors own unacceptable opinions projected on to "others" she doesn't like. (the lumpen proletariat that isn't able to afford the tuition at the high end school the author went to) |
