harmony and death

 the notion of a pluralistic
dynamic
    balance 
really hit the spot
among traumatized
 anti totalitarian goo goos
in the harry and ike years 

after all that blood and horror .....

=======================================


here's a little
c w mills on the syndrome


paraphrased and tighened up 


ultimately these romantic pluralists
desperately believe
 in the efficacy
of  harmonic development
 
 now after
 Stalin's   purges and gulags  
 they have come to abhor
all  organized  
mass/klass violence 
and
 because even 
the unorganized kind

'seems always to lead
 to the organized kind'
 
they  end up
defending
" the just baby steps forward"
                              methods 
that are all 
  that is possible
while acting 
          according to 
              the   status quo's
                              rule book  ......"



" goo goo romantic pluralists 
 expect
progressive 
              groups 
to enter civil  combat
           even take on the state 
      armed only 
                 with 
               a batch 
                 of compelling
                          moral notions..."

but c wright knows better :


"what has been 
         built 
        and safe guarded 
                      by force
                        can only be 
                        removed 
                                  by force "
