There is a method to the meaningless, banal madness of Kamala's speech - American Thinker
In old Hollywood movies about politicians, back in the days when the movies did not want to alienate their audiences by being openly partisan, they would put high-flown words in the mouths of political characters, words that seemed to say much but, when parsed, said nothing at all.
Kamala Harris is not a character from one of those movies. Her words are not high-flown, and they don't seem to say much at all. They sound like nothing, and they say nothing. Daniel Greenfield has figured out the origin of her particular gibberish: she is the modern amalgam of old-time corporate speak, academese, and new-age banalities.
Corporate-speak got its start in the 1950s. At the risk of exposing myself as a true old movie geek, I was reminded of this just the other day when scanning TCM's offerings, one of which was It's Always Fair Weather. This is a really bad Gene Kelly movie about three war buddies who have a reunion years later, only to discover that they'd all changed for the worse. One of the scenes shows the Dan Dailey character quite drunk at an office party when he suddenly realizes that nobody is saying anything at all; they're just speaking office cant:
Corporate speak has only gone downhill in the 67 years since then, and Kamala Harris, without any music to help her out, is the avatar of this kind of meaningless, obfuscatory nonsense. Or as Daniel Greenfield writes:
It's chilling to realize that this woman is just a 25th Amendment away from the Oval Office.
