Andrew Klavan: Two Cheers For Trump's Crudeness In the Face of Revolting Mind-Control

Mind-control enforced on the pretext of "politeness" and "good manners," allegedly.

Actually I don't know if Klavan is awarding Trump just two cheers -- he might intend to award him all three.

No person of importance on the right seeks to silence anyone on the left. The Left, on the other hand, is broadly committed to ostracizing, blacklisting, and even criminalizing right-wing speech.

Enter President Donald Trump. He is a rude and crude person. He speaks like a Queens real estate guy on a construction site. And because he does not have good manners, he thoughtlessly breaks the rules with which the Left has sought to muzzle those who disagree with them. In this regard, I frequently compare Trump to Randle Patrick McMurphy, the loudmouthed, ill-mannered roustabout from Ken Kesey’s brilliant novel One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. McMurphy comes into an insane asylum controlled by a pleasant, smiling nightmare of a head nurse named Ratched. Nurse Ratched, while pretending to be the soul of motherly care, is actually a castrating, silencing tyrant. Her rules of good manners, supposedly fashioned for the benefit of all, are really a system of mental slavery. All of McMurphy’s salient character flaws suddenly become heroic in the context of her oppression. Only his belligerent ignorance of what constitutes good behavior can overturn the velvet strangulation of her rule.

For Nurse Ratched, read Hillary Clinton, CNN, the New York Times, Yale University, Twitter, and Google/YouTube--all the tender ministers of polite silence and enforced dishonesty. If Donald Trump's boorishness crashes like a bull through the crystal madhouse of their leftism--well, good. It's about time.

Turning to the insane "shithole" nontroversy, Klavan writes:


Let's state the obvious. Some countries are shitholes. To claim that this is racist is racist. They are not shitholes because of the color of the populace but because of bad ideas, corrupt governance, false religion, and broken culture. Further, most of the problems in these countries are generated at the top. Plenty of rank-and-file immigrants from such ruined venues ultimately make good Americans--witness those who came from 1840s potato-famine Ireland, a shithole if ever there was one! It takes caution and skill to separate the good from the bad.

For these very reasons, absurd immigration procedures like chain migration, lotteries, and unvetted entries are deeply destructive. They can lead to the sort of poor choices that create a Rotherham. Trump's suggestions--to vet immigrants for pro-American ideas and skills that will help our country--are smart and reasonable and would clearly make the system better if implemented.

So, when it comes to the Great Shithole Controversy of 2018, my feeling is: I do not care, not even a little.

Other people have pointed this out, but Trump is saying: We should pick immigrants according to our needs.

The left is fighting this claiming that it is immoral to think about ourselves; we must think only of the immigrants' plight.

But why are they in a "plight" at all? What would be immoral about just leaving them where they are now?

Because, of course, they live in shitholes. That's what the left puts forth to change this argument from one of rational self-interest (pick immigrants and number of immigrants according to our own changing needs) to one of absolute moral imperative -- we must let them in because to leave them in their current countries would be cruel and inhuman.

There's only one kind of place it would be cruel to leave someone -- that's right, a shithole.

So they can choose between screaming that we are morally obligated to lift immigrants out of their shitholes, or they can scream that it's a travesty to call these countries shitholes, but they can't do both.

Their entire spittle-flinging, tearing-eyed, red-faced moral meltdown relies foundationally on the idea that these people live in shitholes and only a monster would condemn someone to continue living in such states of abject shitholery.

So it cannot be any kind of foul to acknowledge that.

He is neither and his diplomatic skills are exemplary, especially when it comes to understanding, recognizing and respecting the cultures of the nations whose leaders he engages. That is something that was severely lacking among the 'geniuses' of Barry's administration.

It's dishonest of them to even frame it in terms of "thinking about ourselves".

When liberals are acting in favor of potential immigrants, they are inflicting foreigners problems on American citizens in ways that won't affect the liberals at all (or will actually benefit them in the short term).

If liberals truly wished to frame this as a "thinking of ourselves" vs "thinking of foreigners" and decided to opt for the latter, the liberals would *help* out those foreigners from their *own* resources in ways that *did not* affect their fellow citizens.


They slip so much of this sophistry bullshit under the radar. They are ~90% false premises designed to manipulate.

I had to look up the history of "shithole". It goes back the 1600s. Originally and up until the early 20th Century it was just used to mean the old Solo, one's exhaust port.

But in the early 20th, it began to take on the connotation we know and love, which is a stronger version of hellhole.

In the later 20th, it began to take on the figurative sense of "asshole" as in "Obama's a real asshole". In the old days, it had only the literal meaning of butthole.

And from what I was reading, Trump may actually said "shithouse", not "shithole". Ie, all these countries are a shithouse.

You can ponder any slight differences in meaning between those two. I don't know.

63 Anyone remember when Bush literally stopped the spread of HIV in Africa and extended an entire generation's life expectancy via largesse?

And the usual suspects shithooks called him a racist anyway? Now fast forward--here we have a man that so many of us initially doubted (yep--me, too) because he hung out with, and was praised by, the wrong people. Hi, Jesse Jackson.

This is a fight that we cannot win if we cede even one inch and the President continues to do what he has done throughout his candidacy and now his time in office: Don't apologize. Case in point: We have a visa program that allows you to gain US citizenship through a process much less rigorous than screening, say...Maryland Senate candidates. It is terrible--its proponents know it is terrible and so they create this controversy out of whole cloth to call Donald Trump--yes, the guy they used to crawl on the ground to get donations from--a racist.

Of course, they do that to entire swaths of the country, too. To hell with our betters. I'm sick of all this self-righteous preening on the part of people that have to be shamed into showing John Conyers and who still have no shame when it comes to the Clinton Global Criminal Conspiracy.

77 There is one sense in which the west had a hand in the rotten ideas which make countries shitholes. Many of them became independent at a time when the prestige of the left - what P J called "two-bong hit socialism" - was at its peak. (This is true of Haiti in a different way; as they became independent from France back when the French invented leftism.)

India seems to be coming out of it, but they had it bad under Nehru. A few others, like Singapore, avoided it. But I have to admit it is true that, except for the followers of Mahound, they all got their rotten ideas from western bolshies. Marx, remember, was not Asian.

And, of course, most western countries are rushing toward shithole status as fast as they can. I don't get that, but it's clearly true. The outcome will be ugly. We've seen Germany turn nasty before; Merkel seems determined to ensure it happens again.

The question in my mind is if the US can turn it around, who will follow? I expect some of the other Anglophone countries may. But who else? Not a cheery prospect. Every time I read news, I'm glad I'm getting old.

We should look at immigration from TWO points of view.

1. Does it help us?
2. Does it help or hurt the country they would be leaving?

Example: Sure, we could accept tens of thousands of Iranians here, but over there they could be a powerful force to break down the theocracy. Why should we take the lid off the pressure cooker?

Pencil pushing bureaucrats need to up their game or be gone.

81 One of the things I love about PDT, is his speech. I don't care how damned "crude" it is (I once did, when I was Trump Curious), but damn, I love to hear an alpha male stand up in front of a crowd and say *what we were all thinking.* And unlike Emperor Hussein Obama, not a single "Umm, err, uhh."

My husband is a great public speaker, very polished and comfortable in front of an audience. And I love that.

But Trump is a different "animal." And he's the man we need post Age of Obama.

101 'Tis becoming increasingly clear that the 'shithole' comment was a Left lie - and an own-goal.

A hole in the ground is just a hole in the ground; it becomes a shithole after someone takes a crap in it. This is what we see in Haiti; and in the creek at Bridgetown, Barbados when I saw it: the offal of a people who despise their own land.

If they despise their own land, they are less likely to treat our land well.

If they are offended that we see their countries as shitholes, maybe they should take care of their shit.

160 "No person of importance on the right seeks to silence anyone on the
left. The Left, on the other hand, is broadly committed to ostracizing,
blacklisting, and even criminalizing right-wing speech."

That goes a long way towards explaining why the Left has been the dominant force in American politics for the last century or so. The Left views the Right as the enemy and treats it accordingly. The Right views the Left as merely an alternative point of view.

Niger Innes (Congress of Racial Equality) made an excellent point in a panel discussion, and that is if Trump can break above 10-15% of the black vote with coattails, then the Democrats will not win a single election of any consequence. The numbers just don't work.

With minority employment at a 26 year high and immigration curbs being very popular in AA communities most especially, I'd say Trump is well on his way. What happens to the the Democrat corruption machine if black urban voters start voting for even some Republicans?

187 Huck Follywood points out a key thing that's not much discussed. Dems cannot have even a mild erosion of their bloc black vote, and survive as a national party. They'd even struggle in some urban or coastal areas. The other side of that is they are now regularly engaging in crude race-baiting unlike that ever seen on the national level. Obama's disgraceful and astonishing crap about St. Trayvon Martin has no analogue in American history, and it was done entirely to goose black racism, er, resentment and paranoia and victimhood complex, I mean, dammit, TURNOUT!


As I said last thread, Dems cannot always be quickly assessed as "desperate" when they use extreme and repugnant tactics, because that's become almost SOP for them. But I do think they're desperate right now.

Also, what is the Magic Number of immigrants to inoculate oneself against the "racist" and "bigot" smear?

It would be ludicrous to say that America must absorb everyone who enters. There's not a person in the country that actually believes that and no one of any elected office would proffer that. So there is some limit to what differentiates "racist/bigots" from the moral.

So, politically, the Progressives just say, "We approve of one more person than the other side and that makes them racists and us pure."

I mean that's the fundamental argument. Approve amnesty and our choice of X immigrants or you're a racist/bigot and nevermind that we both will restrict immigration at the end of the day.

224 Klavan:

Let's state the obvious. Some countries are shitholes. To claim that this is racist is racist. They are not shitholes because of the color of the populace but because of bad ideas, corrupt governance, false religion, and broken culture. Further, most of the problems in these countries are generated at the top. Plenty of rank-and-file immigrants from such ruin"

Ace:

"The left is fighting this claiming that it is immoral to think about ourselves; we must think only of the immigrants' plight.

But why are they in a "plight" at all? "


Andrew and Ace:

As much as I applaud your blunt honesty, I feel it doesn't go far enough and there are still things being left unsaid.

Here's the thing:

Slums are slums not because a tract of land is supernaturally cursed to forever be an awful place. Slums are only ever slums because of the people who live in them. The place is not the source of slumhood; the people are the source of the slumhood.

And of course on an international scale, shitholes are only shitholes because of the people who dwell therein.

Examples:

Haiti is lush, physically beautiful, and if run properly, could and should be a resort paradise. But no -- it's a shithole.

Gaza Strip is an amazing place at the crossroad of three continents -- Europe, Africa and Asia -- has the most amazing history of anywhere on earth, all sorts of incredible archaeological sites, crusader castle - -and even some of the best beaches and best surfing in the Mediterranean. But no -- it's a shithole.

The tropical center of Africa is the most fertile land on the planet, with the best and most iconic wildlife on the planet, and some of most amazing natural wonders on the planet. But it's a shithole.

In all three cases, the shit-hole-ishness is 100% caused by the behavior and beliefs of the population. The physical places themselves are not only fine, they are all magically blessed with outstanding beauty, history and fertility. Klavan's claims that the badness only originates "at the top" is only true in a disingenuous way: Bad people rise to the top people society and culture enables and encourages that to happen. And the society and culture are created by...the people.

So, to be completely honest, there is a tinge of "racism" (wrong word, really, but we'll use it for now) in noting that these places are shitholes, because by noting that, Trump really and truly is pointing out that the people who live there created these shitholes, and that if those people come here, they will bring their shitholism with them, and make part of America into a shithole too.

But here's the thing: Trump is factually correct in noting this. We should just concede that.

But what's REALLY making the Left uncomfortable, and the reason for their freakout, is not that Trump is being "racist," but that his "racism" is obviously based on self-evident facts, and that his attitude is correct and true.

One might deem this meta-racism: Trumps isn't just being brutishly racist out of ignorance, but rather proving that racist attitudes have a solid basis in evidence. Which is worse, and more powerful, and more difficult to refute, than mere kneejerk bonehead racism.

Of course, racism isn't the accurate word here -- I'm just using it because the left uses it. A better word would be xenophobia, or chauvinism.

231 Klavan nails it. What Trump represents is the utter destruction of the elite smart class. For years, as computers, laser beams and whatnot has taken over most of our lives, we have heard: Only smart people know how this works. This is true to some extent. I don't want an online / internet based doctor operating on me, I'll take the dude with actual in class time.

But what Trump represents is that can do attitude with none of the prerequisite background - i.e., knowing the right people, walking in the right circles, etc. Bush was a dunce and yet had better grades than John Frickin Kerry. But you would never know that from the MSM.

What scares the crap out of the left is: If this guy can do it, people will actually believe they can do it. And doing it is making a good go at it with long lost beliefs of self sufficiency, savings, hard work, things might not always go your way but there's always tomorrow.

The left must make people believe that they cannot do it. The reason is most irrelevant, unless you're a minority or one of 286 genders. Trump represents what is possible. A NY real estate guy with bad manners running the country. But at the end of the day, no president really runs the country. They embody a spirit. Obama's was: Without me, you can't survive. Reagan had his "Morning in America." For the left, Trump - even though he is a billionaire - represents the can do spirit. And for the left, the can do spirit is terminal

260 The saddest part about Newark is that it wasn't always a s---hole.

Up until just after WWII, it was a thriving city and suburbs. Then the democrats started their 'social engineering' and used eminent domain to kick out home and business owners to put up housing projects...edifices which were ruined by their inhabitants within the first year of residency. My mom's family had to give up their (1 acre within city limits ) property/home and the entire neighborhood of similar properties was destroyed to make way for public high-rises. In spite of efforts in the last 30 years to have a renaissance/s, the city is too corrupt to recover. The mayor before Booker would pillaged that city so badly you'd think he was Hil and Bill on holiday in Haiti. Years ago when Booker first was elected, I had heard scuttlebutt that his private life would prevent him from reaching higher level of government, but apparently nothing comes out about it. He was and is part of the democrat machine and they protect their own. Nothing ever happens to corrupt politicians in NJ. They just destroy everything they touch and go off into the sunset with their millions of dollars nobody can ever explain how they acquired.

Besides, there is no evidence that Trump even used the term "shithole" except for Little Dick Durban's say so, and if that commie cocksucker said the Sun rose in the East, I'd be out at dawn with a compass to check up.

And on top of that, most of the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and Asia are in fact, shitholes, period. I've talked to enough people over the years who have traveled to these places and have witnessed their shitholery first hand. And yes, these places are shitholes because their societies, cultures and governments are fundamentally broken.

And as far as I'm concerned, its time to shut down ALL immigration to this country, as well as ship out every one of them who is here illegally. Why? Because those that are here, even though they are now living in Paradise compared to the shitholes they came from, they still hate this country, it's culture and us, those "evil white people" who built all this to start with. So shut it down, all immigration, for at least a generation, until the ones who are here legally learn our language and integrate into our culture. And if they won't do those things, kick them out as well, "legal" or not.

Yes, but...who created those "bad ideas, corrupt governance, false religion, and broken culture"??

The people did. So, ultimately, the problem arises from and lies with the population of a broken culture.

Tat's what the whole thesis over "Islamofacism" was about -- the original meaning of the term. It meant that the people/tribes of places now nominally Muslim traditionally preferred a "strongman/warlord" governmental system, dating back to antiquity. And that now that they're Muslim, they replicate their preferred traditional cultural system with a Muslim veneer. I.e. fascism is baked into their societies. And ultimately at the root of that is the group attitudes of the population of the place.

The most obvious example: The people and culture of Iraq created Saddam Hussein. They created the conditions for him to arise, and they didn't complain much when he did. And those who WERE complaining only wanted to replace him with a DIFFERENT fascist leader or system.

Yemen's problem is that it had a Zaydi-Shi'a minority that happened to be dominant in the capital. Iran sent over agents to rile them up against Teh Jooooz. And al-Qaeda sent over agents because, al-Qaeda. And the Sauds sent over agents because the Sauds live, like, right there.

So, the Zaydis (now Jewhaters as well) took the capital but couldn't take the rest of the country, and the Sauds cannot allow them to take the rest of the country. Neither can Israel, obviously.

Al-Qaeda are there because they like chaos and hate the Sauds, and they stayed there because they fear ISIS.

They will never change those areas, because you bring in immigrants who see a flush toilet for the first time in their life and they think they're in paradise, but in reality its a shithole. If they don't want to change it, let them stay in a shithole.

312 The left is fighting this claiming that it is immoral to think about ourselves; we must think only of the immigrants' plight.

PDTS's 'shithole' gambit is a direct assault on the hive mindthink of the left. To them all cultures are equal in stature and have socially redeeming value(s). Trump has thrust their buffoonery into the limelight for all to see, discuss and render judgement on.

For the left, this cannot stand. The entirety of the preferred narrative on immigration is at risk. It's framed and built on a sandy slope and once the playing field has been leveled, it will fall apart and be utterly destroyed.

Yes, the '69 riots were the nail in the coffin for Newark. There used to be a lot of NJ-ites who remembered it when, but sadly, they have almost all passed. I never knew it that way, but only heard stories. Too many people today only know it as the cesspool it is and just accept it that way.

Posted by: RondinellaMamma at January 16, 2018 07:11 PM (3t31F)

My father had an Italian deli in Newark, he took it over from his uncle who had it when Newark was nice. They contained the riots a flew blocks from him. The cops were shooting rioters and just throwing them down the sewers. Yeah he didn't last too many years after that. I don't think he ever got over seeing how bad that area became over the years.

I had a very interesting discussion about that a couple evenings ago with a gay friend of mine. Yes, we were drink, but he is also pretty self-aware and self-effacing so we could have this conversation.

I asked: Is the "gay accent" a cultural affectation, or is there some kind of genetic basis for it? Because my friend, whole gay, does NOT have it.

He laughed and said he had never thought about the topic that way, but that now that the question was posed: He conceded that it was probably an affectation.

He cited another gay guy he knows who "came out of the closet" in his early 20s. They had known each other since high school. And back when he was younger, this other guy just talked like a standard not-gay straight high school jock. Then the VERY DAY he "came out of the closet," his accent changed to that of a flamboyant bitch-queen.

If the accent was genetically based, he would have had it all along.

408 Ya know, Trumps kids never were seen falling around clubs drunk or high. And they were always in the spotlight.

Malia has been seen doing these things. Yet Ivanka defended her and told press to leave her alone.

Chelsea defended Barron and told press to leave him alone.

I am proud of that one thing...that there is at least one thing that has not been a double standard around kids. Of course, it has been the previous kids defending the current kids. None of our frickin' leaders have said anything. But maybe it would backfire...so at least the kids have each other's backs.

I think even the Bush girls have gone to the defense of Presidential kids.

You know who has not said anything? Obamas kids. People got fired for criticizing them. Yet, not a peep. And ya know, they are still kids I guess, so maybe that is why. But technically Malia is an adult, it would have been nice if she had said something to defend Barron. Maybe she did and I missed it.

The press are monsters when it comes to kids if not of the correct political stripe. I despise that.

I agree 100%. Furthermore, people who live in shitholes tend to be more superstitious, while people in non-shitholes tend to be more rational. That probably is a subset of culture.

Also, people who live in shitholes tend to have lower IQs than people who live in non-shitholes. Sorry if that offends anybody, but it's a fact and there is no getting around it.

Hillary Clinton is a corrupt, lying, cheating, anti-constitutional bully and ideologue with plans to destroy both our First and Second Amendments. Those who claim her corruption does not outdo Watergate are not thinking clearly.

He was pbho's doctor for 3 years. He knows.

Plus, looking at his career, he is a stellar doctor with two difficult specialties. First in his class a number of times. Diving and parachute qualified doctors are rare, even in the Navy. Esp. compared to flight surgeons.

He can handle the press, and I'm sure he does.
