Understanding the Sensitivity of ‘Garbage’ and ‘Trash’

about the garbage dump comment

3rd post on this.

at the Memorial Hospital psych ward in Tampa, Florida in 2003, I got upset when somebody threw something in the trash and then looked at me. I thought they were calling me trash. After that I always had that issue. Similarly, if someone bent over in front of me I was afraid they were calling me an asshole.

I was called on the “trash” comment association at the EACU Sacred Heart psych ward here in Allentown in 2017. Dr. Smith said that that was ridiculous when I thought that happened to me on his psych ward. I wasn’t sure whether to believe him or not. For one thing he was Latino. Maybe he wouldn’t know. That is what I am sayng to myself now.

I have issues with these two words. “Garbage” and “Trash.” The British preferred word as far as I can remember is waste bin. Who knows how that would fly. “Garbage” and “trash” are always sensitive words. “Waste” is too. Politicians make mistakes.

the press calls them out on this. Let it drop now. It was an awful mistake that Trump made but it was a mistake and to be treated as such. I have been slowly becoming educated about Latino/Hispanic world through their mistakes about me as well as my mistakes about them. White autocracy of the past just wasn’t familiar with Latino culture in the past. Trump was trying to talk about dregs of society being given kid glove treatment to cross the border. It is a dicey area at the border. Nobody knows how to react. We don’t know the types to watch out for. It is a foreign population. These are my intimations in this regard. Women used to come here pregnant to have their baby on this soil to guarantee citizenship for themselves. People would do almost anything for American citizenship. That is why we don’t react to families who want to emigrate here as we otherwise would. That’s what I am guessing. It is a mixup. I pray that Jesus moving to keep them safe. During times under siege in the early OT women cooked and ate their own children because they were so desperate for food. It was so bad it was remarked later in the OT in the prophets.

we are under bad times now. Similar to that evil generation. Abortion; Modern warfare; race wars; sexual abuse of so many kinds kinds; rife violence in our schools and in the streets.

so, politicians move to launder it all to keep it looking good.

every so often a bad word passes through. People all over the world are in trouble. Everybody wants to be in America because good men and women like Donald Trump have a vision to Keep America Great and also Safe again. A beacon of hope to the world all over.
