JREF Book Club?
Published (2009-11-27 08:18:00)
Got the book today. 20 pages in. First chapter very beautiful, but I didn't have much an idea what the hell was going on with that cave and chain. I understand more in the next two.

What's the alternative? Thirdworldtraveler, which is far less reliable than Prisonplanet or Infowars. Heck, i think Len Hart is more reliable than that. FPM has Ion Pacepa and Oleg Kalugin among its contributors. What are TWT's? Conspiracy theorists and Death to America authors. Heck, they think that the Soviet Union were the good guys in the cold war. "communism with elections". By your logic, Stalinist Russia was...

I detect a discrepancy in choice of reading material in these forums... a book club would be fun some weeks and ultimate torture the rest.

I dunno, it wasn't a conscious genocide, as in "let's kill all the southeast asians", so its a little hyperbolic.
Still, 4 million of them dead. Carpet bombings of villages, agent orange - clearly there was a callousness there and an undervaluing of their lives.
Also: the 4 million figure includes those killed from all causes, whether that's asian versus asian or american versus asian.

I'm not sure what you mean by pseudo History. Is it events made up altogether or is it events which have become distorted by the lens of time?
Anyway, my suggestion to anyone interested in "straightening out" history, in this case American history, is to obtain the 8 volume series A People's History of the United States, by Page Smith. Apparently Professor Smith set out to write a textbook of ...

I don't know if you'd qualify Lovecraft as a 'classic' but, for me, he is really undeserving of his stellar reputation.

His stories are a bit better and certainly, they were innovating for the time... For ...

Interesting question.
I don't have anything concrete to add but it might be worthwhile to consider the wider context from which they arose.
What were the socialists, communists, catholic parties, and other parties on the right-wing doing in terms of their iconography?
Perhaps part of the reason the Nazi esthetic developed as it did was due to competitive pressure from nearly-as-...

It's good to see that their logical reasoning is of the same standard as their scientific theories.

What is it about Sondheim's artwork that commends itself to us as an authoritative analysis of such a topic?
