horkheimer and adorno hash it out...they condemn jesus christ
.
..from....ELEMENTS OF ANTI-SEMITISM
Christ, the spirit become flesh, is the deified sorcerer.
Man's self-reflection in the absolute,
the humanization of God by Christ,
is the proton pseudos [original falsehood].
Progress beyond Judaism is coupled with
the assumption that the man Jesus has become God.
The reflective aspect of Christianity,
the intellectualization of magic, is the root of evil.
...here let us toast the anti-Christ

found poem at Judaculla Rock
The soapstone boulder was named
for the giant Tsul`kälû´,
which means "slant eyed giant"
who was reported to control the weather,
was the steward of all hunted animals,
and could leap from mountain to mountain.
It is said
that the strange 7-fingered globs on the boulder
were from the seven-fingered giant's hands
where he braced himself after a stumble from such a jump.
Despite being a grotesque,
hair-covered giant with demigod powers
and seven-fingered hands for feet,
he eventually took a Cherokee wife
and became one of the tribes earliest ancestors.

freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose
Constitutional rights are useful up to a point, but they do not serve to guarantee much more than what could be called the bourgeois conception of freedom. According to the bourgeois conception, a "free" man is essentially an element of a social machine and has only a certain set of prescribed and delimited freedoms; freedoms that are designed to serve the needs of the social machine more than those of the individual.

like mercury in a dish
The past is malleable
and flexible, changing
as our recollection
interprets and re-explains
what has happened.
