Absolutism

09/15/06 | by David Raffin [mail] | Categories: Quotes

"Absolutism is the total acceptance or rejection of all components of particular ideologies, spectacles and reifications. An absolutist cannot see any other choice than complete acceptance or complete rejection ... The absolutist wanders along the shelves of the ideological supermarket looking for the ideal commodity, and then buys it -- lock, stock and barrel. but the ideological supermarket -- like any supermarket -- is fit only for looting. It is more productive for us if we can move along the shelves, rip open the packets, take out what looks authentic and useful, and dump the rest." - Revolutionary Self-Theory http://www.cat.org.au/spectacular/thinking.html

"Not since radical physicist Benny Hill first postulated that time slowed down while being chased by bikini-clad women; however, from the vantage point of the viewer, time sped up, have the masses been witness to such a momentous spectacle."
