CCCP - Fedeli Alla Linea
1964-1985 Affinità-Divergenze fra il Compagno Togliatti e Noi

THE REVIEW

Giovanni Ferretti and Zamboni wanted to take refuge under the Warsaw Pact.

People who spontaneously chose the unadvised path, the one that is more obscure and fascinating beyond Checkpoint Charlie, where the imagination painted a web of villages where men with kind eyes and long beards returned to the hearth in the evening to recover from work, so damn hard and socially useful, while in the cultural-political capitals sacrifices to the God of proletarian justice were celebrated.

A socialist paradise, and who cares about that dental wizard Kennedy had, as here we are intubated and forced to breathe consumption, alienation, the commodification of our manipulated (un)consciousness.

The paranoid Emilia!

Appearing infiltrated like the CCCP is a false deviance, a convenient dichotomy between consensus and punk that so infests our reason, to the point of urging us to divide our thought patterns with walls.

How convenient it was to be on this side or the other side.

And was it that easy to recognize who was over there even if they were over here? And vice versa?

Perhaps the wall was demolished for this reason, to truly know from what to defend our reputable order-style and if this something existed somewhere.

Today many eminent scholars mourn the fall of the wall as the death of Mother History.

And how fun it would have been to listen to the humorous seriousness of the CCCP while caressing our wall live.
