Wednesday Morning Rant

"Coded"

Remember "dog whistles?" A "dog whistle" is, according (usually) to leftists, a form of spoken code uttered by somebody to help subtly inform those in the club - always a bad club, of course - that he's one of them. It's used to signal group membership and alignment. This one used to be bandied around a lot. Talk about "inner-city crime?" Why, that's a "racist dog-whistle." They used to accuse Trump of it a lot before everyone kept making fun of them for being stupid. But no stupid thing can ever be allowed to die, so it has instead changed form. "Dog whistles" are out, but "coding" is in.

Meet "coding:" the new(ish) idiot in town. Now, things are "coded" to mean something - exclusively in the eyes of the observer - that usually isn't really there. Examples abound. Ace uses it humorously but idiots use it seriously. Cartoon characters of yesteryear are "gay-coded" because contemporary gay writers need to contrive a justification for putting sex politics in children's programming. Competent, mechanically-inclined women are "trans-coded" because fake chicks need there to be real women who they perceive as like themselves.

It's delusional, but Variety should win some sort of prize for maximizing the asinine delusion. There's apparently a country music guy called Morgan Wallen who, according to Variety, is distressingly "Trump Coded." I have no idea who this guy is, but Variety's Jem Aswad sure finds plenty of pearls to clutch about him:

While Morgan Wallen has done some very offensive things in public, he's no Kanye West or even Kid Rock ... he broke Covid protocols just days before he was scheduled to appear on "Saturday Night Live," clearly running the risk of infecting the entire show's cast ...
And just a few weeks ago, he returned to "SNL" as a musical guest and abruptly walked off the stage during the traditional show-ending onstage grip-and-grin -- later posting a photo of his private jet with the caption, "Get me back to God's country," tacitly transforming the incident into an owning-the-libs moment, complete with merch.

LOLWUT? Okay, whatever. There's more, of course. Apparently he also got a DUI and did some rock-star stuff like throwing furniture off a roof. So he's living like a rock star. Perhaps not admirable, but how is it "Trump coded?" Well let's see:

But at a time when an unapologetically sexist and arguably racist convicted felon won the presidency after running on a platform based on hatred, threats, intolerance and retribution, it also captures a spirit of this era and is even, arguably, a MAGA-flavored brand of punk rock.
Wallen has never publicly endorsed Trump, but he doesn't need to: His behavior and image are indisputably MAGA-coded. His songs might be about drinking and bad decisions and being a badass -- and defiance about the results of that drinking and those bad decisions and that badassery -- but it's hard to separate them from the very Trumpy, middle-finger-to-the-world spirit that his non-musical actions seem to reflect. Even the video for "I Had Some Help," his airwaves-dominating song with Post Malone, is filled with (comical) bad behavior, drinking, pick-up trucks and American flags, and the song itself is about deflecting responsibility for bad behavior: Someone else is to blame for my current unsatisfactory circumstances, an attitude central to the appeal of MAGA and Fox News.

Let it wash over you. This is pure, straight-up projection by Jem Aswad. "I think MAGA is these bad things. I think this guy's music and attitude reflects these bad things I associate with MAGA. Therefore, this guy's music and attitude are "MAGA-coded." It's pure delusion. But is it, in any way, real? Thankfully, the delusional Jem Aswad already gave us the answer in the above except, but ever the professional and erudite cultural commentator, Aswad provides some more information for us:

Whether or not that's who Wallen actually is in real life -- or whether a superstar's "real" self, as opposed to their public selves, is even relevant -- it still raises a question. Is playing and enjoying his music, and contributing approximately $.003 per stream to him and his musical collaborators and business associates, an endorsement of all of the above?

So no, then. Dude never endorsed Trump. Aswad acknowledges that he has no idea what Wallen believes. Is Wallen MAGA-curious? I have no idea. Neither does Jem Aswad, but that didn't stop him from asserting it and then vomiting out a - no joke - 2,100 word article about what he projects on to Wallen.

After much hemming and hawing over bad behavior - real or imagined - by rock stars throughout time, Aswad finishes with the real source of his trouble:

We live in an era where it feels like we should do a background check before expressing enthusiasm or positivity about virtually anyone or anything ... [i]t's enough to make one consult with a crisis-PR firm just to get through the day.

Or, you know, have an opinion of your own. Like something or don't. Boycott someone's music or don't. Whatever. But when you're as deep in the Hollywood bubble as Variety's Jem Aswad is, there is no ability to have an opinion - at least, not without a focus group and crisis management team.

Is Morgan Wallen's music "MAGA-coded?" No. I have never heard it, but I am confident in my assessment because there is no such thing as "MAGA-coded" or the various other "codes" that people cry about. This "coding" fad, like the "dog whistles" that preceded it, is just a means for delusional leftists to project their own perceptions, prejudices, beliefs and attitudes onto third parties.

50 Morgan Wallen is a manufactured product of the Pop Country Assembly Line. He could be a secret leftist commie for all we know. He sings what he signs and acts how he acts because that’s what he’s supposed to do. Sorta like the lead singer and songwriter for Slayer writes songs about death, violence, the devil, and the occult. But he’s a devout Christian. His music is his music because that’s the genre.

83 First, only dogs can hear the whistle. When I would say that it always shut this kind of thing down quickly.

Second, only coders can read the code or else it wouldn't be much of one. Are you a secret Trumper if you can so clearly read the code? Maybe we should just make those baseless allegations about Jem.

Third, these people are insufferable killjoys. Imagine living your whole life asking yourself if you are permitted to like the things you like because someone somewhere in the chain that brings them to you may not think exactly the same things as you. I get it that boycotts are a thing and our side uses them occasionally to good effect. But I don't even know who this country artist is. On a graph of diminishing returns, you have actually managed to cross the asymptote if you care this much about something this insignificant.

89 Google AI had some interesting thoughts on "Famous Gay Coded Cartoon Characters":

Megara: From Disney's Hercules, Megara's edgy and apathetic personality resonates with many queer viewers, and her relationship dynamics with Hercules and other characters have been interpreted as queer-coded.

James: Part of the villainous Team Rocket in Pokémon, James is often noted for his dramatic and flamboyant behavior, leading to speculation about his queer coding.

Him: The flamboyant and powerful villain from The Powerpuff Girls is frequently cited as a queer-coded character due to his high-pitched voice, flamboyant clothing, and overall demeanor.

Ursula: The villain from The Little Mermaid has been compared to drag queen Divine, and her seductive and manipulative nature has led to speculation about her queer coding.

Big Gay Al: A character from South Park, Big Gay Al openly embraces his sexuality and marries his partner, Mr. Slave, in an episode that celebrates gay marriage.

104 What the Left did starting about 10 years ago is force anyone who didn't agree with them to speak in code because they will censor and punish and destroy anyone who does not.

So to me this isn't really the same as dog whistles.

This is about controlling a failed previous attempt at control. In commie regimes EVERYONE is forced to speak in code 100% of the time because any thought or word that deviates from the narrow party line is punishable by prison or death.

Don't get me wrong. There is plenty of free expression. You are free to express the party line whenever you want.

Lucifer was an angel, often androgynous, and after the Fall became a demon, often portrayed and believed to be androgynous or more accurately, they mock humanity with depraved versions of our natural sexes. "Him" fits that unsettling aspect of Evil perfectly.

Yeah, "coding" can have different meaning, but in our computer age, and with the Woke agenda, it is more brainwashing (control over the person) than a legitimate process of developed logic.

The Bible uses the word tupos (type, pattern) as in "Titus 2:7 In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,"

Of course their constant narrative is all things Western/Christian are evil, and their evil is the only "good".

I think this dialog from Anchorman could be the basis of a country song:

Brian Fantana: I think I was in love once.

Ron Burgundy: Really, what was her name?

Brian Fantana: I don't remember.

Ron Burgundy: That's not a good start, but keep going.

Brian Fantana: She was Brazilian.
Or Chinese, or something weird.

I met her in the bathroom of a Kmart,
and we made out for hours.
Then we parted ways,
never to see each other again.

Ron Burgundy: I'm pretty sure that's not love.

Brian Fantana: Damn it!

On a related note I've noticed leftists will often claim a motive for Trump or a politican they don't like is just...evil.

Take "RFK wants to kill people by banning the COVID vaccine". Well, he's not banning it, but even if it was its because he believes the clot shot does more damage then helps...

He could be wrong...but he's been pretty clear about this and the reasoning is easy to understand. But, no they'll just claim he wants to kill people...

Nice article but picking up on his meme. Alluding to something in the last thread as well, I don't think woke is self-subjugation and dependency at all. We may like to think these people are choosing to suffer the ills they inflict but it's not like that all. If anything it's more like the psychosexual sadists who (there are theories) enjoy "feeling" the pain they inflict on another. It's a high. It's not like when you or me get so angry we punch a wall - we don't do it to feel what the wall must be feeling - it's deeper, much deeper.

It is pure control. The woke don't live woke lives, they don't have 100% woke thoughts and feelings. There is nobody and I mean, nobody, more racist than a leftard. They are the most bigoted and prejudiced people alive.

They are not self-subjugating they are play acting and forcing *you* to endure the pain they ALREADY have by beating you with the prison bars of their manufacture and worship. The view from outside and inside prison bars can look very much the same. But they only see them when they look at *you*.

243 Heh. Gay stuff. I was at a flea market and some clown had a candelabra on the table, with a card saying "possibly" from the Liberace collection. I wonder if some fool bought it for that reason. Also, the Polish Air Force is really putting the F35s out of Fort Smith through the ringers this morning. One went over and I think Polski Pilots don't give a shitski about altitude regs. The base will be hosting the Finnish Air Force in the very near future and that might prove interesting.

328 You know what would make me truly proud if I were an emancipated slave back in the day?

Knowing that my progeny lived in an absolute paradise and did nothing but bitch about how I was a slave for a while and then wasn't, use that as an excuse to do absolutely nothing with their lives, and then die miserable.

340 Actually, when JPMorgan died his estate was around $15 million. The moguls and magnates were astounded . . . "We thought he was rich".

341 "...after his brother died, he cheated on his wife with his brother’s widow and then got her addicted to crack."

Was that wrong?
Should I not have done that?

Again, reparations have changed from slave-holding damages to being white in a systematically racist country.

If it were about the former, most American blacks have white slaveholder ancestors and would be liable.

352 A Gay Little Ditty - a higgledy piggledy

Walter Mitty didn’t like the 'kitty'
Nor even an itty bitty titty
He foreswore the nitty gritty
And went all flitty in the city
These days he just feels pretty, oh so pretty

353 IMHO there's nothing amiss with these lyrics

It ain't like I can make this kinda mess all by myself

She was a spitfire in her youth. It's a Wonderful Life, in particular.

But actually a good actress, like in The Big Heat.
