The "more student parts" of "the business community"? Could I get that in English, please?
Quote:He makes alliances with all the alt-right elements, but he claims limited interest in them.
Equivocation. The phrase "alt-right" had/has more than one meaning, particularly at the time he said it.
Quote:He said he wanted to trigger a final confligration that will destroy the current system, but he shows no interest in a race war. That reads $$$$$ to me
False dichotomy. Either he wants a race war or he's only interested in money? Really? Those are the only two possible motivations?
Also, did you type this last post with mittens on or something?
Posting on a tablet with aggressive spell check leads to the mess above. I've tried to fix it. Let's see how it arrives on the forum.
Now your comments:
- If you want an "army" of blindly-dedicated soldiers, why not select from what's already available? What's available is mostly on the fringe. I have no doubt that Bannon is a nationalist -- perhaps a hyper-nationalist. I just don't see the evidence that he's directly aligned with the neo-Nazis or race-crusaders. On the other hand, they're already up for the fight. I agree I'm reading between the lines a bit.
- So let's look at Bannon. He took a turn through Goldman Sachs, and his only complaint was greed. That reads right out of Atlas Shrugged. His goal reads like the end of the book. Draw your own conclusions.
I think we've gone a little bit further than reading between the lines. You appear to have read a whole essay into the margins of a couple of sentences.
