[Philadelphia, 5\/25\/16]<\/p>\n
When two commenters got a bit heated, with biff calling ebear \u201cdumbass,\u201d which got \u201cgrow the fuck up\u201d as retaliation, I jumped in, \u201cOK, guys, let’s just cool it. Let’s get back to discussing the many issues raised in the article. Thanks!\u2014Linh.\u201d<\/p>\n
This cordial calling for peace from both sides, hence \u201cguys,\u201d triggered this response from ebear, \u201cI thought I was. You mean putting Mr. Indignant in his place doesn\u2019t meet your exacting standards, oh ye who constantly rips on Ron Unz and the Mighty Jews? Fuck you, you self-important hypocrite. Unsubscribe.\u201d<\/p>\n
Amazing, the unhinged emotion, but also the flawed logic, for I have only attacked the unreasoning of Ron Unz and Jewish thinking. I have never said \u201cfuck you\u201d or \u201cgrow the fuck up\u201d to Unz (or anyone else), because that would illuminate nothing, plus make me look like the one who needs to grow up.<\/p>\n
Spending three decades in Philly, I heard \u201cfuck\u201d every fourth sentence, and often in three sentences in a row, for that\u2019s just how we talk, yo, but I never heard \u201cfuck\u201d or \u201cshit\u201d once during five months in Namibia. Their restraint, and, yes, civility, forced me to curb my lingo.<\/p>\n
It wouldn\u2019t be a bad idea to start a Namibian Peace Corps to deliver higher standards of behavior and English to heart of darkness Americans.<\/p>\n
How bad has it gotten? When ADeceptive Pseudonym complains that John Derbyshire has become \u201ca complete idiot,\u201d goeshittheragman responds, \u201cagreed \u2013 i think it\u2019s too much gook food. ya know he\u2019s married to a slant eye\u2019d slopehead, don\u2019t you?\u201d<\/p>\n
That\u2019s at the highfalutin Unz Review<\/em>, where for several years, I shudder to remember, I acted more or less as the Namibian Peace Corps.<\/p>\n Defending Unz, two white sexpats with years in Asia said free speech should be absolute, but that has long been a Jewish ploy to push degeneracy and drag down civilization. Think porn and pop music.<\/p>\n Though it\u2019s seeping in, such Jewish progressivism hasn\u2019t quite poisoned Vietnam. Ugly old men can\u2019t just strut naked during Pride Parades, freakish drag queens don\u2019t educate first graders and there\u2019s no debate about what\u2019s a woman. What are you, stoopid?<\/p>\n If you go to a lecture by, say, Thomas Sowell, you can\u2019t just shout, \u201cShut up, nigger!\u201d That\u2019s only free speech at a Jewish outhouse like Unz Review<\/em>.<\/p>\n Consider this sign I just saw in V\u0169ng T\u00e0u:<\/p>\n West Lake B\u00fan Ch\u1ea3 Translating, I didn\u2019t Americanize its language by eliminating \u201cbeg\u201d [\u201cxin\u201d], for that\u2019s crucial to its tone. Though xin c\u00e1m \u01a1n, meaning to beg to say thank you, is very awkward in English, that\u2019s the politest way for Vietnamese to say thanks.<\/p>\n Consider also these lyrics by the top Vietnamese rapper, \u0110en V\u00e2u:<\/p>\n Oh, without you, mom, I’d have been trash Oh those miserable gray days My first words were taught by whom (you, mom)
\nWe beg to announce:
\nRestaurant begs to increase prices
\n5,000 \u0111\u1ed3ng [21 cents] per portion
\n[…]
\nWe beg to thank our valued customers!<\/p>\n
\nWith neither foundation nor order though I may sit up high
\nThe computer I recorded my first songs
\nYou had to earn through days of sweat (drenched)
\nNow that I can work and make money
\nAll you need to do, mom, is sit back to enjoy oh (tea)<\/p>\n
\nWith swirling wind and you, mom, so thin
\nSometimes you passed out on the street from hunger
\nYou didn’t dare to buy clothing
\nDidn’t dare to spend money out of worries (for me)
\nNow I coolly carry a bag to buy you a Dior bag<\/p>\n
\nMy first letters, who held my hand (you, mom)
\nMy first mistakes, who corrected me (you, mom)
\nMy first stumbles, who pulled me up (always you, mom)<\/p>\n
