Aug 19

The word "Socialism" has been a slur used by the ruling class and their police agencies since at least the 1890's.

All this talk about "what Socialism really means" strikes me as the old familiar lamentation:

"Why doesn't anyone understand me?" (Or more charitably: "When will they ever learn?")

The answer is "never", and attempts to prove "what Socialism really means" waste precious time.

The Apollonian and the Dionysian are co-equals

I am sorry to be difficult, but Dionysus heard me thinking "just...?"

Now he and Apollo sing as one:

"The Apollonian and the Dionysian are co-equals."

[I love serving the Muses, I truly duly— but they ride my nervous system like it's a Scythian horse]
