Hello monkey. 1) It’s Curzio Malaparte and not Curzio Maltese (I don’t know who that is). 2) With The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism, you’ve integrated what I wanted to say. In the end, Calvin preached predestination, one in a million saved only by the will of God. I believe we can say that we Westerners are the God of some African or some other poor person in the world. In short, the perspective changes, but the picture is the same. Brecht’s statement, I insist, is truly insignificant, but above all naive. It’s in the democratic moment that you feel the violence of the economy and finance; then, with the crisis or under a totalitarian regime, the democratic component (rather, let’s say that the economy actually becomes truly democratic) is reduced until the crisis ends. For example, look at how Keynes’s theories are used in factual reality, especially by whom and at what moment. Ciauz.

No worries, the gentleman is doing just fine.

Come on, Kosmo, I think you’re being biased just because he had a mustache. That’s not how it’s done, you know!

Josi, you're shooting a mullet with an air gun. I prefer his masters over Bukowski. Study a bit yourself... you'll see that it's good for you.

And about josi... if you do it like that, you lose the rhythm of the rosary and then you have to start over. Good job, tie it to the bird and may God forgive me. Aug

Well done, beautiful page. It's a topic I've been reflecting on lately, let's say after watching the documentary Maradona by Emir Kusturica, in which, after Maradona shows Kusturica the tattoo of Fidel, Kusturica reveals that Gabriel Garcia Marquez privately told him that he feels grateful to Fidel because without Fidel, today, Latin America would surely be speaking English. "Even in our times, one cannot explain the existence of wealthy centers of capitalism without that of poor and subjugated peripheries: both are part of the same system." This is very true. Adam Smith already said that for one rich man, five hundred poor men are necessary, and this makes me think of Curzio Malaparte when he says that capitalism is a direct emanation of Catholicism, because for wealth, for good, poverty, and thus evil, are necessary. We live our lives thinking we are living righteous lives, and instead we are stealing existence from someone guilty of being born further South than us. One note: Brecht's statement is, from a political-economic point of view, absolutely and objectively wrong. The violence of the economic system is felt in any political system. Indeed, it is precisely the so-called democracy (which is actually a property-based democracy... and if we want to be strict, democracies do not exist) that serves as a gateway to the ugliest and most horrendous forms of economic violence. The assertion of authoritarian countries, then, is pure fantasy. Nonetheless, congratulations. Bye. Ah, in my opinion, not for long. One cannot live in a constant state of deficit.

I ordered it. If I don't like it, I'll send you my postepay code. Saltut'

Anfatti Josif, anfatti. More or less the same proportion that exists between your gray matter and that of a normal person. Of course, you are the house plant, don’t flatter yourself.

No, tell me. How cool are you? With a "C," huh!!!

Do you have a copy of Trouble Mask Replica by Captain Findus from '69? Damn, you're a legend. Can I touch you?
