Are Donald Trump's "Fine People" Planning a Hitler Birthday Bash?
Random thoughts for today, April 19--
Today is April 19, the anniversary of the fatal siege in 1993 at the Branch Davidian Compound run by Cult leader David Koresh. It also is the anniversary in 1995 of the atrocious bombing attack on the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City, which was deliberately timed as a vengeance act by Timothy McVeigh, (Koresh sympathizer, Identity Church follower and Neo-Nazi anti-government fanatic) against a symbol of our Federal government.
Tomorrow is Adolf Hitler's Birthday, April 20, which is celebrated in a variety of places in different ways by active Neo-Nazis involved in Aryan Nations, and the wide variety of Alt-Right fascists on the internet. Not coincidentally, also timed with this was the mass shooting at Columbine High School on April 20 1999, as one of the shooters was a rabid anti-Semite who spoke of his plans for hijacking an Airplane and crashing it into "Jew York", a year and a half before 9-11.
My point in dredging this all up is an attempt at what you could call "poisoning the well". You've heard that expression, referring to an attempt to preemptively intervene when you know someone is going to do something either really stupid, or really bad, and you know them well enough to know they will go ahead and do it unless you get through to them, and take away the thrill of excitement that expressing their rage through some destructive act will lead them to do.
Governors and City officials are making preparations for the possible mass protests and violence in reaction to the verdict in the murder case involving Derek Chauvin, who killed George Floyd. There are Nazis and Militias out in force, looking for an opportunity to launch mayhem and violence. On Saturday, a peaceful vigil in Columbus Ohio commemorating the murder of a young person was shot up by a group of unidentified people in a SUV, killing one and wounding five. This smells to me like the beginning of something, "live maneuvers" if you will.
That is the context for the growing tension around the Derek Chauvin verdict. There is a small but heavily armed army out there of insurrectionists, "Rittenhouses", Militia members, and others who are waiting for the verdict, as are the rest of us.
This is directly meant to reach anyone out there who is planning for mass protests if the verdict goes the wrong way. Be extremely careful and aware of your surroundings, and if you see any signs of violence, leave, go home.
If anyone is thinking of reacting as some did last year by going on a property destruction binge, I'd ask you to consider this. That. Is. What. They. Want.
The Militia members and vigilante groups NEED a pretext to go off. They have an addiction to violent and hostile fantasies, emphatically to shoot or harm people of color or "Leftists". There is a significant number of Law Enforcement personnel who also have this addiction. Don't give them their "fix".
Think back to the day of the Capitol riot. Think for a minute about what Donald Trump did. He whipped up the crowd of his supporters into a violent mob. Many were there already with a plan for the attack, but the majority arrested were spontaneously incited into a state of rage and orgiastic pleasure by Trump himself.
Trump went back to the White House to watch TV, and luxuriate in the mayhem he started. Glued to the TV, watching for hours, refusing to take calls, rebuffing friends and family who begged him to intervene, to tell people to go home, deploy the National Guard, something. Yet he continued to watch.
Like the character of Patrick Bateman in "American Psycho", Trump, the psychopathic Narcissist watched the riot unfold as if it were a Porno, starring himself, and got off on it. He was in a euphoric and virtually orgasmic state of mind, as has been described by White House observers who could not get his attention. He was erotically engaged with his supporters, hurting people, risking themselves, for him. He was masturbating.
The former President and the hard core of his violent cult are deeply psycho-sexually ill people, disordered to the point where the opportunity to start violence is their substitute for foreplay and sex.
So, anyone who engages in blowing up ATM's, smashing store windows, defacing monuments, etc, throwing objects at Cops, is engaging in mutual masturbation with Donald Trump. Now you have the hindsight and insight to know that you are giving Donald Trump, and his armed Nazi shocktroops "spank material" on or around their celebration of Adolf Hitler's Birthday, as well as a pretext to come around and shoot you dead.
So, that's my PSA for the day. Signing off.
