In comparing Charles Murray to Hitler, Yglesias, the #2 guy at Vox, is quoting The Clash’s White Man in Hammersmith Palais.
All over people changing their votesAlong with their overcoats
If Adolf Hitler flew in today
They’d send a limousine anyway
But … isn’t being a Clash fan a symptom of … Implicit White Identity? I mean, while the Clash spent a lot of time virtue-signaling, their song titles like “White Man” and “White Riot” were dog-whistling. Although dog-whistling isn’t le mot juste for this performance of “White Riot” in front of 500,000 raised white arms:
White riot – I want to riot
White riot – a riot of my own
White riot – I want to riot
White riot – a riot of my own
Black people gotta lot a problems
But they don’t mind throwing a brick
White people go to school
Where they teach you how to be thick
I went to the place
Where every white face
Is an invitation to robbery
An’ sitting here in my safe European home
I don’t want to go back there again
Joe Strummer, like Charles Murray, was a Noticer, which means he was Literally Hitler.
Matthew Yglesias noticed that the two black guys who played Knock Out Game on his skull on May 15, 2011 for Walking While White were black, so he’s Literally Hitler too.
