#3 You don't want to give power to totalitarian movements in order to discredit them. You don't want to give power to totalitarians ever! Totalitarians aren't in the business of letting themselves 'be discredited.' They're in the business of subjugating and enslaving those who are under their power. They're in the business of making their subjects suffer. They're in the business of making their subjects thank them profusely for making them suffer. This should count as no more than a trivial empiric observation for anyone with at least rudimentary knowledge of the history of the last 100+ years. The Western political elites, left, right and center seem to have gone suicidally mad. </rant> |

#1 Read the whole thing, to get to the nearly-the-conclusion: The choice, sadly, lies between an unlearned interloper with common sense and an Establishment whose policy response is predictable as the emergence of a gumball from a supermarket machine after a quarter is cranked in. They are mediocre ideologues incapable of learning from past failures, clinging to their careers because they are unsuited for honest work. Trump may not know much but he is capable of learning. That can’t be said for his detractors. |
