Ah, "lazy fool" in General Kurt von Hammerstein-Equord's quartet of officer types.

I have come across the last.

So have I. Sometimes stern measures need to be taken.
I've described myself as 'clever and lazy' in a couple of interviews. If they don't get the reference, the place isn't for me.
 
"Foreigners are mean to our pets" is an oddly classic racist argument, i.e. the stock running gag of the Chinese Restaurant cooking cats and dogs.
 
And remember how oddly fixated Trump was with just normal foreign foods that one point? Like he kept talking like taco trucks and foreign food in supermarkets in these hushed tones like he was talking about the boogeyman.

Isn't his diet McDonalds, KFC and seriously overcooked steaks? He once said that state dinners should be replaced with burgers on a conference table. He sounds like an overgrown kid who's never been pushed to try something new.

Appropriate choice of words given the subject matter.

Sure, and George H.W. Bush ran the Willie Horton ad. There were definitely dog whistles from all three. But still, it doesn't hold a candle to Trump's blatant bigotry.

The only difference between Ray-Gun, Shrub and T****y is that while the former two* whispered what they were doing and kept their racism to the shadows, T****y shouted it from the rooftops.

*And to an extent, Nixon, though he kept the redistributive state mostly going.

It also has many of the contours of a blood libel. I mean, the MAGAts have not come right out and said that the Haitians are using the pets in Voodoo rituals because that would be too on the nose, but I expect that the literal Nazis who have been pushing this are implying exactly that and the run of the mill MAGA idiots (Trump voters, Vance, Shirkeu and Trump himself) are too slow to understand that.

Wasn't it Roger Scruton who observed that liberals think conservatives are evil while conservatives simpy feel that liberals are wrong? This habitual accuation by liberals that every conservative is actually the second coming of Hitler is just too on the nose.

Scruton was a lover of authoritarianism, religious supremacism, homophobia and hatred. While he may be a model for you, what relevance does his thought hold for a moral person?

I thought you were talking about the Aussie break dancer for a moment.

The people in the city meeting claiming the eating of local 'wildlife' including cats and ducks, were black residents
Did they lie about what they saw the Haitians doing? Is it so hard to believe from a war-zone -like place where they eat actual 'dirt cookies' when they are hungry? Who would even blame them when plopped suddenly in large numbers in a small-ish town?
The park probably looks like a free duck grocery to them.

I saw that video. The guy was wearing a red hat and red hoodie. He never said HE SAW anyone killing and eating a duck or anything else. He simply repeated that they were. IOW, just another case of hearsay.
