"Jünger spoke of a Jewish nationalism, alienating the National Socialist party" the interesting thing is that publicly they shunned him, but privately they took him literally. Just one fact: the main idea within the Reich was not to exterminate the Jews, but to "exile them." Essentially, after Jünger, perhaps it's a coincidence, perhaps not, "the final solution" was born, which is not the one from school books, but the relocation of the Jews - following the Jews' preference - to Madagascar. Yes, before Israel, they wanted Madagascar. Anyway, this is not an urban legend: there are private documents about this that ultimately did not take place because, in '42, England was not willing to stop the war and let this flock of Jews pass all the way down Africa. Instead, no documents have ever been found regarding the commonly understood final solution, meaning confining them, using them, killing them. Not even a comma. How "strange," right? Jünger was a true intellectual, someone who inferred from the surrounding reality which is all that separates an intellectual from a particularly educated person. And anyway, he was not a fascist at all. He was a nationalist, if we really want to classify him, but a nationalist is not necessarily a fascist.

Not my Coltrane. Already Crescent is - except for "The Drum Thing," which is my favorite Coltrane piece - too standard, then Standard Coltrane is really standard. I prefer the furious Coltrane or the meditative one, still always romantic. When he goes romantic, he, who is effortlessly romantic, is too romantic.

And no vortex, it's not so much the fear of being overtaken on the left but rather the fear of not being perceived as "civilized and decent" individuals. With this bullshit about being decent, we've already screwed over the blacks, then Africa, and finally the communists, and now the only ones left are the Muslims who just won't give in to the idea of advancing civilization and taking pride in it... who, more or less, are the only ones among the scum of believers that I have any sympathy for. It's no wonder that the West attacks the only country where, fortunately, actions are still driven by impulses that come from the dick and instinct, namely Iran, which has a popular and real support that we can’t even fathom. The current boogeyman, Iran, "has the atomic bomb" ... the only Arab country to possess nuclear weapons, coincidentally, while still on the topic of decent people, is Israel.

Good job, now we’re waiting for someone to come along and call you a fascist. Anyway, these days I'm reading this essay on comparative literature by Tarmo Kunnas, which was also his thesis, called The Fascist Temptation. Essentially, he analyzes Jünger, Céline, Drieu La Rochelle, Brasillach, Marinetti, Pound, and all those writers who were indeed tempted by fascism (especially Céline, La Rochelle, and Brasillach) and compares them on themes like moral relativism, the cult of action, the denial of progress, and anti-intellectualism. It's very well done, witty, but good luck finding it since it's almost impossible to come by. Nevertheless, long live Adelphi.

however, the theme is true. That is, in the sense that even African Americans, despite living worse, being not perfectly "integrated," have managed to disseminate their culture and their models. While in the '60s, for example, it was the blacks imitating the whites, today the opposite happens.

Haha, I didn’t know. Thanks for the link, maybe I’ll look it up.

I was talking about Africa, not about Italian colonization per se. If I had to talk about Italian colonization per se, and thus also the internal one, I would never think of a South Tyrolese (someone too distant from me), but rather of any Southern Italian who, just like the Maghrebis, has had their life ruined forever.

"I had figured out the ending after just half an hour like many phenomena here on this page" :)

a half-hearted, poorly done copy of Twin Peaks, a full-blown American mess by this crazy guy who, once he comes to his senses, cannot accept living as a monster and gives up pieces of his brain to become a decent person. it’s like opening "Beyond Good and Evil" in half and shitting on it with this retreat from the tragic aspects of life. then, there's the fact that you understand everything right from the halfway point, and that Di Caprio is truly terrible and cries? he cries excessively. optimistic? excessively optimistic. pissed off? excessively pissed off. Departed is way better.

Hi Oma, thanks for the nice link.
