hey pal, got change for an oracle?

[Mittelwerk at aol.com]

after you finish this preliminary breeding-phase (otherwise known as mere
novel-reading) of having to be spoon-fed your concepts in anthropormorphic
form, I suggest--if you have not done so already--that you read "Dialectic of
Enlightenment," by Adorno and Horkheimer.

to not do so--besides leading to a misunderstanding of your own
superfluousness--is to forfeit whatever meager remnants of self-consciousness
were allotted you, in the course of your summary liquidation by the
universal.
