\u201cDon’t say they didn’t warn you: \u2018By any means\u00a0necessary!\u2019\u201d<\/p><\/div>All social hierarchies run from Irreproachable (cannot be injured from below, can injure anyone below with impunity) to Untouchable (cannot injure above, can be injured by anyone above without recourse). Not just true of people \u2013 all social organisms \u2013 and if you watch for snubbing and supplication behaviors, it’s easy to tell who is whom.<\/p>\n
If you can see with your eyes and not your ears, you know that Donald Trump as president was Irreproachable ex officio,<\/em> by virtue of the office, but was in fact America’s first Untouchable chief magistrate. He was and is a man without friends, betrayed by almost everyone eventually. Moreover, and measuring, as above, by the simplest of scales: Many of his erstwhile allies have been arrested, tried, convicted and jailed, but only one perpetrator of the continuous coup against Trump has been tried \u2013 so far.<\/p>\n What you are seeing now is Trump’s supporters being transformed \u2013 by the magic tar brush of \u2018racism!\u2019 \u2013 into Untouchables. Marxism is Grasshoppers devouring Ants; race is a proxy war, like Vietnam. But all Ants are \u2018white supremacists\u2019 \u2013 even the black, brown, red and yellow ones \u2013 since \u2018white supremacist\u2019 turns out to mean, by repeated ostensive definitions: A persistently good person, worth hiring or working for, a good neighbor who always holds up his own end. In other words, a \u2018white supremacist\u2019 is an Ant \u2013 and Ants are to have been devoured by Grasshoppers.<\/p>\n So we are all Trump now. When they injure you, that’s \u2018law enforcement\u2019 \u2013 or, at a minimum, your ‘intersectional’ just desserts. When you resist being injured, you are an exponent of a violent reactionary racist nationalist terrorist group.<\/p>\n How can you tell you’re Untouchable and they’re Irreproachable? First count your wounds. Then tell me what you did about them.<\/p>\n In other news:<\/p>\n CNBC:<\/strong> How Miami Mayor Francis Suarez is luring tech players from Silicon Valley and New York.<\/a><\/p>\n Salena Zito:<\/strong> Poll shows New Yorkers want their new mayor to fix NYC \u2014 not spout \u2018wokeness\u2019.<\/a><\/p>\n Jordan Davison:<\/strong> Anti-Science Teachers Unions Push To Keep Kids Out Of <\/a>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u201cDon’t say they didn’t warn you: \u2018By any means\u00a0necessary!\u2019\u201dAll social hierarchies run from Irreproachable (cannot be injured from below, can injure anyone below with impunity) to Untouchable (cannot injure above, can be injured by anyone above without recourse).
