Please, stop hassling me about this douchebag TD!!

So, you're surprised that a Belgian raised in Catholic environs would say the things you said to Neocon about truedog. I guess the culture is getting swinish over there as well.

For my part, I'm surprised that swanky WASP fellows would sink as low as this:

techstocks.com

The above link is all about 'swinish culture' since, after all, the members of these 'select' golf clubs are educated racists..... (perhaps they too never read that Bible stuff)

Charles, you seem to stick to some old-fashioned, class-biased definition of 'Culture'. I believe that culture for culture's sake is sterile.... I tell you: there's more culture in Lethal Weapon III, starring Mel Gibson and Dany Glover, than in Cyrano, a French movie featuring Gerard Depardieu in an adaptation from Edmond Rostand's drama, Cyrano de Berjerac. Yet, the latter was awarded the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Festival. After all, the Nazis were educated Germans, Dr Mengele, Auschwitz's white angel, was an educated surgeon, etc. But look at how they pathetically spoiled their 'culture'....

Re: Somebody needs to take you outside and slap you around a little bit.

There you show me that you too might have read Edward Limonov's The great Western home. I seem to recall that the book was edited in 1995 and that the first chapter was Hard archeo-violence vs. Soft neo-violence. At that time, I didn't know of Limonov's far right allegiance, hence I purchase the book ingenuously. Later, as I learnt about his National Bolshevik endeavours, I came to the conclusion that --like you-- Limonov belongs to that XIXth-century-minded crowd who's nostalgic about the Ancien Regime's splendours.....

Culturally yours,
Gustave.
