noam
the lovely old
Don Q
of our epoch
sez he'd stop a child
from running into the street
"no time to lose...
main force if necessary...
unknowing child ....
death is at hand "
right
but where does this line stop?
===============================================
the chobviously not
when its
a whole class of pre schoolers
cutting across a street
well how many steps
are needed to take us to....
say the POUM
about to lead
" the workers"of catalonia
out into a street
infested with armed and murderous fascist pigs ...?
===============================================
omsky's challenge
"a cock sure
line of moralistic jive
that cuts across
vast territory
on its way back
to same old same old
smug pb received
home and garden type
moral notions ....
a jagged string
of heuristical value fetishisms
litmus tests
administered
with ruthless
mad hatter
cold cockery ....
inquiries that are
circular
predications
not of facts
that flow from history
but judgements
that flow directly
from kangarooish
court ordered definitions of terms ....."
removing
a contradiction
cause
you've misapprehended it
to be an inconsistency
a bug in your
pseudo-algorithim ...
well thats where you get
to noam and his sancho pol pot "
restating the chomsky challenge:
one challenges all manifestations
of institutional authority
to prove whether or not
that authority
has the right to use force legimately
if authority
fails the chomsky challenge
any use of force
justified by its
alledged authority
is totally illegitimate
(and poorly spelled out )
all illegimate authority
is a dangerous
block to the spread
of human freedom
when noam sez
question authority
hereally means it
bottom up
not top down
dads first
states last
-------------------------------------------
but we are interested
in the force and authority
of
rev parties and their states
so
lets go to spain .....
----------------------------
to be continued
