Will Trump go to war with the Iranians or
the homeless? Or both?
Trump is a coward. The nation of Iran has
the means and the will to fight. Do you
recall the will displayed by Iranians when
repelling foreign invaders when Iraq
attempted to invade Iran as a de facto US
proxy force? Conversely, the homeless do not
possess any defence against assault by the
agents of the US police state.
Regardless of his image among credulous true
believers, Trump, character-wise, is the
diametric opposite of the image he conveys
as a titan of supreme self-confidence. The
pose is ego-based compensation for inner
feelings of inferiority and abject weakness.
Only those who are terrified of their own
feelings of weakness and vulnerability
fixate on the weakness, real or perceived,
of others. If you desire to suss out a
person ridden with self-doubt, no matter how
outwardly confident and bestowed with
worldly success, notice if they possess a
proclivity to bandy the ultimate designation
of capitalist derision, “loser.” Trump is
prone to inflict a Heinrich Himmler-like
evil towards the homeless because, as was
the case with the chinless cipher “toy
soldier” Himmler, Trump is contemptuous of
his inner feelings of inadequacy. To avoid a
crippling spiral into shame and self-doubt,
feelings of doubt and concomitant animus
must be displaced.
The US, in a collective sense, cannot
address the societal sin of allowing
homelessness, due to a fear that even
regarding the crisis might lead to feelings
of vulnerability…that some form of contact
loseritude might overwhelm and decimate
their will. The inherent weakness in the
structure of late US empire compels contempt
for the homeless. Trump’s self doubt is the
source of his compulsion to humiliate those
he perceives as weak and shunt them from
sight. Only then can he separate himself
from self-hatred.
The reason the mode of mind is lethally
dangerous: The psychical trope cannot be
sustained in a viable sense. The sense of
weakness remains, compelling the sufferer to
double down on the perpetration of force.
There can be no end to the depth of cruelty
inflicted because the pathos rages in the
interior life of the totalitarian bully —
not those on whom he projects his feelings
of weakness and vulnerability. The fires of
Auschwitz were lit by fires of self-hatred.
When tyrants attempt to cage their
self-contempt, hell is unloosed upon the
world.
