one of daily show's brood said it best: american politics has devolved into ignoring what the other person has to say until your guy lands a sick burn.
i blame the reticence to discus politics in polite conversation; it's made us culturally incapable of political discourse.
The world is not dialectical - it is sworn to extremes, not to equilibrium, sworn to radical antagonism, not to reconciliation or synthesis. This is also the principle of Evil, as expressed in the 'evil genie' of the object, in the ecstatic form of the pure object an in its strategy, victorious over that of the subject. We will fight obscenity with its own weapons. To the truer than true we will oppose the falser than false. We will not oppose the beautiful to the ugly, but will look for the uglier than ugly: the monstrous. We will not oppose the visible to the hidden, but will look for the more hidden than hidden: the secret. We will not be looking for change, and will not oppose the fixed to the mobile; we will look for the more mobile than mobile: metamorphosis... We will not distinguish the true from the false, but will look for the falser than false: illusion and appearance.
Where is this from?
