finally

Finally I am also annoyed by a local newspaper in Denmark ( an EU country of 5 Million people) with 150.000 circulation rate. It took me long, because I dont want to read newspapers anymore. I feel myself like a jewish intellectual in Europe in the 20s and 30s. Like there has been always antisemitism in Europe, there is an increasing islamophobie in Europe since the end of the Cold War. And there is a bigger problem, I am not a believer. But after I had read the "Clash of Civilizations" of Huntington I would like to be a believer. :-) Because it is sooo beautiful, to be in such a stupid great war, designed for the avarage stupidty of the couch potatoes of the 21st century. ;-)

Denmark is a small country like Austria, which doesn´t´ want to see a big moslem country, like Turkey, in the EU. So it is not a coincidence, that a misery like this happened in Denmark, like also an Austrian journalist, Ostenhof in Profil, has written. Nothing is a coincidence. There are unfortunately stupid moslems who let them provocate by these offences. It is very easy to provocate a mob waiting for an occasion like this. The whole story has nothing to do with press freedom. It is like a joke. But I have thought of "Totem and Tabu". In "Totem and Tabu" Freud tries to show what an object (it can be a totem, it can be an animal, it can be a flag, it can be anything...) can mean to a community. In the past it was easy to destroy such a thing in order to offend the whole community. The history of religion from the psychoanalytic point of view shows similarities in the genealogy of many religions. The monotheistic religions have alwasy tried not to have this kind of fetish objects, not because they are more developed and intelligent, because they don´t want to be vulnerable. Especially for christianity who has a long pre-history of torturing the body was immense important, not to have something vulnerable as a fetish object. Christianity begins with the torturing of the body of his hero, Jesus Christ, so it is logical, to invert everything into abstract, in order not to be vulnerable. Body is vulnerable.
Islam is not a religion like Christianity, but many modern people want to see a kind of primitive christianity in islam. Because they think, there is only one history, one culture... like Denmark foreign minister has said... I can´t believe someone saying like this can be intelligent...
Any community at any time can have an object, which they identify themselves with. I can t understand why, but I must respect. And to say that they are primitives is like to say; i am the end product of god and anything which is not like me, must be updated to me. Indeed very intelligent.
And I have also thought of Taliban, destroying the fetish objects of Buddhist people: it was terrible. They have done this stupidity, because they were thinking, they are something better than the people worship statues. But it is the same with danish caricatures, they destroy something what moslems worship, because they think they are better... But more than this they have an aim, which they want to reach; making borders, making fronts,making policy with emotional means for people...They are unvulnerable in a certain concern and so why not infringe other to get something they want to get? Taliban was stupid and even in their destruction there is something infantil. But this is not the case with sakularized petite bourgeoisie of platonism of ordinary people. (Nietzsche; "Platonismus fürs Volk") They are not neurotics, they know what they are wanting...They want to have borders, seperations, but eros can bring everything together without platonism. Neurotics only try to get their symbolic order right, they don´t have an aim for the society, that is the reason, why they can´t make politics.
For example there is a neurotic person, who cries everytime when i light a match. So I don´t light a match beside her. Neurotics are weak people in the symbolic order of the ruling abstraction system.
