Trump is no Adams, because Trump is a follower, not a leader or originator of the Resistance in America.

Generation wise, Trump is too old. The reverse engineering of America has been made by Leftists for decades now. And the resistance has only cropped up recently, due to the internet.

Trump is merely riding the wave of popularity, as he has always done. If he was engaged in social engineering, it would have been on the side of the Leftist alliance, not on the side of the Red Pill or the Alt Right.

As for people wanting information on the Alternative Right, they should check the blogs and the culture. Learning the culture, will allow them to understand the politics, which will also allow them to understand why the Alt Right supports Trump as President.

Sure, it could. Because it is.

That’s what the Germans and Japanese thought about their own systems in the last century, and paid a dear price for that mistake.

Only through suffering, do humans learn things they have rejected.

I have been very polite about Trump supporters.

I have only told the truth as I see it about Trump, using his own words and deeds. That may be inherently insulting.

As for Sam Adams, the comparison is just wrong in every way, including the supposed insults of mine being like the criticisms of Adams. There is simply no comparison between the two men, except that they are men, and controversial. Their principles and deeds are all different.

So you’re saying that Trump is our Sam Adams just makes no sense at all, and it’s an insult to Sam Adams. The man, not the beer 🙂 .

I know there’ve been one or two commenters who’ve regularly talked about the alt-right, and I know that Neo’s promised a longer piece on the alt-right, but maybe now’s a good time for somebody to flesh out some definitions and some causal arguments. Maybe even some data?

Plenty of anti-Jewish vitriol to be slummed through.

True, you don’t use the exact same insults as Adams’ political rivals of his day (do you have any evidence they are made up? Tell Wikipedia), but you’ve repeatedly insulted Trump and his supporters. And I can surley dig up quotes by many of his detractors calling Trump crazy, narcissistic, liar, etc. on this blog.

No, I’m not trolling you, but maybe you are trolling me by being so literal.

I don’t know if I responded to your previous comment in another thread, but I’ve been reading your blog for years. Trump is one of the few areas I disagree with you and feel the desire to comment on. I will also add that unlike most former leftist bloggers turned conservative, you are almost always polite and we’ll reasoned. But not with Trump, IMO.

🙂

No, actually, that bears no resemblance to what I’ve said about Trump. “Cloven foot”? ““’neurotic crank’ driven by an ‘inferiority complex'”? Could not be further from my descriptions.

I don’t usually get into devil comparisons. And one thing Trump is not is neurotic—he has a character disorder in my opinion, which is not the least bit neurotic. “Inferiority complex”? That’s actually laughable. Let’s just say I’ve never once accused Trump of anything of the sort. If anything, he is deeply convinced of his own superiority.

Nor has Trump “manufactured public opinon.” He has ridden public opinion and molded himself to it. Very very different.

However, it’s all irrelevant. Even had I said those things about Trump (which I did not)—you are reporting contemporary propaganda about Sam Adams as though it were fact. And even were that propaganda true, saying Trump has certain characteristics of Adams (for example, if they both had inferiority complexes—a term I don’t use, by the way, for anyone)—would not make Donald Trump “the Sam Adams of our day.”

Sam Adams was brought up by you because I had mentioned the Founders in my post, and what I was explicitly talking about was their belief about government, and leaders, not whether they had “inferiority complexes” or not. Your comparison of Trump to Adams was in that context, and as such I pointed out that they have virtually no attitudes towards politics or political history or money in common. In fact, you could almost call them opposites.

Perhaps you are trying to be illogical, in order to troll.

Yes, I know historians have gone back and forth on Adams. But according to wikipedia:

Peter Oliver, the exiled chief justice of Massachusetts, characterized Adams as devious Machiavellian with a “cloven Foot”. Thomas Hutchinson, Adams’s political foe… denounced Adams as a dishonest character assassin… In 1923, Ralph V. Harlow used a “Freudian” approach to characterize Adams as a “neurotic crank” driven by an “inferiority complex”. Harlow argued that because the masses were easily misled, Adams “manufactured public opinion” to produce the Revolution .

Those first two people were Adam’s contemporaries and they speak of Adams pretty much the way you portray Trump and his supporters.
