an impolite manner that is vulgar and lacking tact or refinement
<noun.attribute> the whole town was famous for its crudeness
Crudity \Cru"di*ty\ (kr[udd]"d[i^]*t[y^]), n.; pl. {Crudities} (-t[i^]z). [L. cruditas, fr. crudus: cf. F. crudit['e]. See {Crude}.] 1. The condition of being crude; rawness.
2. That which is in a crude or undigested state; hence, superficial, undigested views, not reduced to order or form. ``Crudities in the stomach.'' --Arbuthnot.
Instead there are sudden, arbitrary switches for variety's sake, with colourful patches which hark directly back to Stravinsky, and for emphasis some blatant Hollywood effects (scored with unblinking crudity).
The reason is simple: If "fire" is, as Mr. Abboud says, a "crudity," firing is a hostile act; Mr. Dithers shows just how hostile.
