I liked the P.S.:
An Open Letter to Jan Philipp Reemtsma,
Regarding His "Intellectual Property"
(...)
"P.S.: We know that German Neo-Fascists have attacked you numerous times
for the exhibition on the crimes of the German Wehrmacht, curated by your
Hamburg Institute for Social Research, and that they continue to defame you
as the "heir of a tobacco company", which not only, and in the first place,
perfectly fits an anti-semitic cliché, but also resonates, in many of these
defamations, with hints to your "personal responsability for the death of
millions of smokers". Please be assured that - even though we don't share
your opinion that said exhibition was a "success", and even though tobacco
may be just another commodity that kills - we, as a group of smokers who
know the Germans and their history, are on your side, no matter what, in
defense of society against Fascism. If you side with us in defense of wealth
against scarcity is an entirely different question - but we bet that one day
you will."
