Former United States president Trump launched his campaign for the presidency of the United States in a speech that included the following words:
“When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us [sic]. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists.”
Here, again, we see the In-group inside the Inner Realm of America defined -the “you” repeated in the second and third sentences - negatively against an Other out-group / Outer Realm “Mexico.”
Then the “they” (meaning “Outer Realm Mexico / Mexicans / Other”) repeated in every sentence, eight times in total.
We will see later how the tripartite conception of a balanced and well governed community in Indo-European culture is characterised by its sovereignty, security, and fertility/sustainability.
For the moment, though, we can apply this conception into Trump’s trolling rhetoric.
He is announcing his bid to become the sovereign of a (mainly) Indo-European polity. And he is using rhetoric to inspire fear and insecurity in the Inner Realm from which he expects his legitimacy and votes to emanate.
Trump is othering a mythical threat of Outer Realm migrants who will adulterate the Inner Realm’s fecundity with drugs.
They are, Trump claims, “rapists” which provokes reminiscences of very ancient trauma of cultures’ bloodlines being poisoned by Outer Realm invaders- these supposed rapists affect the culture he says he is trying to save by adulterating its Sovereignty, its Security, and its Fertility (note the ‘R-T-” sound in each of those signifiers: we will return to the use of sounds immanent in ordinary speech which work on our minds by means we are blind too - the essence of how trolling meaning ‘emotion-moving activity of body speech and mind works).
[Power of Mana]
Sacred M-N Sound
Mana was a moniker given by the first Indo-European language speakers to the energy we exchange when we communicate. This mantic meaning, through semantic spread, came to colonise the signifier for the Moon (meh₁nṓt is the contemporary spelling of the sound Ancient Ukrainians used to signify the…

The sustainability of a community is not consistent with its women being impregnated criminally by outer realm invaders - the fertility of the Inner Realm depends, sure, on food security, but also on the protection of its means of reproducing its humans. Note how White Supremacy in America today conceals itself inside far right evangelical Christians’ attempts to control women’s right to choose. The case currently before the US Supreme Court aims to criminalise the posting by mail of the morning after pill to women in states which have now outlawed abortion.
The vision all authoritarian paleo-male masculinists in what I call the Axis of Misogyny is to use fears about the fertility of the Inner Realm to control, in one fell swoop, the bodies of half of humanity.
Why Authoritarian Pope, Child Stealing Putin, Rapist Trump, and the Axis of Misogyny Hate Women and Children?
Authoritarians think it’s just best if women, children and Ukrainians surrender to rape, genocide and forcible transfers - Why would, for example, two ex-English prime ministers (Truss and Johnson both of whom have daughters) also endorse technical rapist Trump after he’s been found liable for rape and slandering survivor of his rape?
According to the outcome of Bob Altemeyer’s empirical research (https://www.theauthoritarians.org) what distinguishes “High Right-Wing Authoritarian Followers (RHAs)” (note again the same R-T- sound in “Right” (in this context, as in “Writ”) and in “Authoritarian”) from average RWAs are three propensities:
First, an unquestioning obedience to what authority figures pronounce is “right,” “writ,” or “normal”.
Second, High RWAs tend to get self-righteously aggressive in protecting what, as they’re trolled into seeing, is “writ”.
Third, High RWA Followers have a higher than normal desire to be seen as conventional.
Leaders in every civilisation have noticed patterns in how to mobilise followers.
They were able to motivate them using certain linguistic patterns and tics (repeating certain phrases or ideas ad infinitum is a favourite of those trying to activate High RWAs).
High RWAs just want to “fit-in”. Don’t want to stand outside of the crowd. That’s why, for instance, we seldom get people who are High RWA Followers who will say “sorry” or admit that they were wrong. Those who promoted Brexit seldom admit gravity of their mistake.
Where this fits in to the Campaigns to Eliminate Violence Against Women is that certain ideas of “normal” continue to mobilise High RWA Followers against others whom their leaders ordain are not “normal”. For many millennia women were excluded from positions of power.
So when High RWA Followers either of their own volition or because they are being manipulated by those whom they look up to as leaders notice that a narrow and confined idea of “normal” is being transgressed, they become fearful that this is “the thin end of the wedge.”
They’re scared that the “world is being turned upside down” and that unless they act, soon the chaos which they most fear will prevail. In High RWA Followers’ minds, there are “laws” which say “women must stay at home”, “women must look after the children”, or “Women should not be in authority.”
When such “norms” are transgressed, that’s why we see this aggressive piling-on in its various forms: online or gender-based violence (whether psychological, economic, physical or sexual).
Ruschia sees Ukrainian self-governance through the same prism: Ruschia and its authoritarian followers, like Trump, feminises Ukraine, and fantasises about dominating Ukraine as it fantasises about dominating the half of humanity who are female by annihilating its Sovereignty, Security, and Fertility.
