Founder of polling firm that conducted survey says: āThat language is straight out of Mein Kampf ā¦ itās Nazi rhetoricā
A new poll has revealed that more than one-third of Americans agree with Donald Trumpās warning that undocumented immigrants in the US are āpoisoning the bloodā of America.
A significant 34% of the respondents to the poll, conducted by the Brookings Institution and Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI), agreed with the statement previously made on the election campaign trail by the former US president and Republican party nominee for the White House, Donald Trump.
āOne-third of Americans (34%) say that immigrants entering the country illegally today are āpoisoning the blood of our countryā, including six in 10 Republicans (61%), 30% of independents, and only 13% of Democrats,ā a summary of the annual poll stated, which surveyed more than 5,000 individuals from 16 August to 4 September.
āThis is a truly alarming situation to find this kind of rhetoric, find this kind of support from one of our two major political parties,ā said Robert Jones, president and founder of the PRRI, during a presentation of the pollās findings. āThat language is straight out of Mein Kampf. This kind of poisoning the blood, itās Nazi rhetoric.ā
Iām of the opinion the societies that brought heavy industry and Flags aka āthis is mine time to dieā are the peopleās with the poisonous blood.
The only humans that werenāt cancerous, like the Native Americans that lived in perpetual homeostasis with the Earth, were largely eradicated in the name of metastasis, oh Iām sorry, wonderous growth.
You know, that thing thatās destroying the entire habitat for humans effectively permanently.
While I agree the root of most of our modern problems is the infinite growth mindset, this noble savage idea is also an ahistorical reading of the politics of the First Peoples in the Americas, the various tribes also fought conflicts with each other over territory and resource disputes, the engaged in trade with each other, they were people just like us. They formed alliances and rivalries, they cooperated and competed. The First Peoples werenāt this mystical connected-to-the-land pure beings untainted by imperial colonialism and infinite growth, they were humans, just as flawed as any of us were with their own understandings of how the world worked.
