Hitler or Jiang Qing?

If you talk to a Liberal and keep drilling, you will learn that their visceral dislike of Trump is at least partially based on the historical example of Hitler. Hitler was populist cult-figure who catapulted to power because the Deep State assumed they could control him. They were wrong. Hitler ruthlessly disposed of those who assumed they could strong-arm him. (Almost sounds like Arkancide.)

If you talk to a Conservative, you will learn that their visceral dislike of Biden is at least partially based on the historical example of the doddering, elderly Mao Tse-tung and his politically ruthless wife Jiang Qing. Mao was the puppet and Jiang was the hand up his backside. Of course, it was not just Jiang Qing. It was a cadre of political players who used Mao's political capital to leverage their own political agendas.

One notable difference between the Hitler-Trump comparison is that Hitler was 44 years-old in 1933 (a pivotal year in Hitler's political trajectory) while Trump was 74 in 2020. Trump would never be able to capitalize much on a thousand-year Reich.

On the other hand, Mao Tse-tung was 76 at the start of the Chinese Cultural Revolution and Biden was 78 in 2020. That is so close as to be a little bit weird.

  1. Jiang Qing?

    How many know that name and history? I didn't. You are overreaching.

    Hilter? Deep state? Hilter was a dictator. Now that is deep state? Be careful what you wish for.

    1. I think most people do not know Jiang Qing's name. But I think most people who have studied the totalitarian train-wrecks of the past 100 years are aware that Mao's wife was running the train after 1960.

      The gap between therapeutic and toxic doses of medicine are rapidly converging. And it is not just along a single metric. The paths out of a very ugly reset are rapidly narrowing and it may be unavoidable at this point.

      As they say in Boston "I think we are scrod".
