She was quite the foxy crumpet in her day.
Those who say that the totalitarian state of the Soviet Union was not "real" Marxism also cannot admit that one simple feature of Marxism makes totalitarianism necessary:  the rejection of civil society. Since civil society is the sphere of private activity, its abolition and replacement by political society means that nothing private remains. That is already the essence of totalitarianism; and the moralistic practice of the trendy Left, which regards everything as political and sometimes reveals its hostility to free speech, does nothing to contradict this implication.

When those who hated capital and consumption (and Jews) in the 20th century murdered some hundred million people, and the poster children for the struggle against international capitalism and America are now fanatical Islamic terrorists, this puts recent enthusiasts in an awkward position. Most of them are too dense and shameless to appreciate it, and far too many are taken in by the moralistic and paternalistic rhetoric of the Left.

Quote from: Pas RapportParallel Lines - Blondie

Excellent album (esp. "Fade Away and Radiate," one of the best songs about movie-love EVER, only to be followed by "Pretty Baby," best Brooke Shields-worship song EVER) and EXCELLENT avatar!!  :)

Blondie were a fantastic band 1976-1980. Pretty well lost it after that... saw the comeback tour, it was very good, but those are the prime years. Some really great stuff. I certainly consider Chris Stein and Debbie Harry from that era a handsome and rather brilliant twosome...

I love, too, how Harry could be both the sex symbol AND the intellectual, the way Madonna always wanted to be, and carried it off with much more resonance. Madonna is and always has been a pale imitation of her superior forebears: Patti Smith, Debbie Harry, Siouxsie Sioux, Chrissie Hynde, etc. All did the peek-a-boo manipulation of sexual archetypes, but they were somehow both more playful and intelligent about it. They were from a much more intellectual time, though; in the seventies, doing something "important" or at least "interesting" still carried some weight. Madonna came too late for that; her time was all about the buck.
""Money doesn't come into it. It never has. I do what I do because it's all that I am." - Morrissey

"Lacan stressed more and more in his work the power and organizing principle of the symbolic, understood as the networks, social, cultural, and linguistic, into which a child is born. These precede the birth of a child, which is why Lacan can say that language is there from before the actual moment of birth. It is there in the social structures which are at play in the family and, of course, in the ideals, goals, and histories of the parents. This world of language can hardly be grasped by the newborn and yet it will act on the whole of the child's existence."

Fantastic, getting on The Strokes wave to late have it's advangeces. It makes you able to get your own expression of the bands fantastic sound, and their for me moving lyrics. Not just because every music jounalist in most of the world adores it.

The strokes fantastic !!!
