I'm not going to do this any more.(I hope)
Freedom of Speech guarantees free expression of postmodern ideas.
Freedom of Speech does not grant the speaker the right to slander. I do
not assume you know this! Freedom of Speech also does not give one the
right to use "fighting words," unless the person addressed is a
politician. I don't claim the freedom to say "fuck you" to you nor to
mis- take you. But it is not my intention to discuss American nor
International Law. I rather figured I would be not writing about
changing space right away...I may not be able to return to the topic in
this forum. I suppose the next post will be about fighting words.
Someone will ask, "Who wants to fight! Who said fight! Why I'll kick
his ass! Fighting words indeed! Is my fucking email missing something
again! Goddamn it!" And, then, we will be discussing moral war or
something. Why? Well, I think it could be that there is a need to secure
goodwill, a sort of mutual affection in order that information isn't
mis-taken. If, for example, someone hated their father, or was
repressing homoerotic lust, he would tend to want to fight or at least
compete for the position on top of the other ass. It would not be
possible to corroborate evidence with such a person, to work with such a
person. Victory could be possible, but not an aesthetic. It would always
be two steps behind an aesthetic, always in the closet about art.
