De vil strekke seg mot himme-len, vil det umulige. Sally Bauers svømme–tur viser seg ikke å være umulig, men Valerie Solanas er dronningen av det umu-lige. Hun drømmer om antivold, men forsøker til slutt å drepe et annet menneske. Hun avskyr menn, men selger kroppen sin hele sitt liv. Hun er mis-lykket, men har samtidig en stor ild, en drøm, en beskyttende kappe som likevel ikke beskytter så mye.
scum, society for cutting up men, so says wikipedia. *sigh*
i’ve been excited about the street revolts. the struggle continues. this excerpt by chris hedges responding to the state of the union speech by obama spells out where we stand:
«Well, I think in that sense, speaking – we no longer speak in the language of class warfare. Everybody has become middle class. Although, of course, what we’ve done through – especially the acceleration of NAFTA and outsourcing of jobs – is disempower or disenfranchise our working class. And, you know, I’m not a Marxist and I’m not a communist and I’m not an anti-capitalist, but there are different forms of capitalism.
There’s the penny capitalism in the farm town where I grew up, where farmers bring their products in and sell it. There’s the regional capitalism of the local factory owner, hardware store owner, who lives in the community, invests in the community, sits on the school board. And then there’s corporate capitalism, which is something else. Corporate capitalism is supra-national, it has no loyalty to the nation-state. It’s hollowed our country out from the inside. It’s a kind of global neo-feudalism. And it’s corporate capitalism that frightens me»
living in the age of neo-feudalism sucks.

That’s an awesome analysis, what provokes me most is the loud silence from the world leaders. No leader has so far spoken for the Egyptian people and their bravery!
