A society which allows an abominable event to burgeon from its dungheap and grow on its surface is like a man who lets a fly crawl... unheeded across his face or saliva dribble unstemmed from his mouth--either epileptic or dead.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
The era of the political was one of anomie: crisis, violence, madness and revolution. The era of the transpolitical is that of ano...maly: an aberration of no consequence, contemporaneous with the event of no consequence.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
