Just WHO would even think of vandalizing Marx's gravesite or desecrating Jewish cemeteries ? Decaying capitalism has produced a vast sub-class of drug addicted, ignorant, often illiterate, nihilistic youth . Historically this " lumpen proletariat are likely to become the storm troopers of blackguard reaction. I am reminded of the movie " Clockwork Orange ". But not even the music of Beethoven can pacify the people of the Abyss.
It is truly a crisis of civilization. Whenever I catch a bus in Kennedy Plaza I wonder what can possibly become of the alienated LIVING DEAD ?
The many millions LOST SOULS of capitalism in its death agony.
Say, do you know what time it is ? Time is running out .
On " Clockwork Orange "
[The theme of state power had particular significance in the early 1970s, when A Clockwork Orange appeared in theaters. World War II and the rise of the Soviet Union had already shown the world the dangers of fascism, Nazism, and totalitarianism. Before writing the novel A Clockwork Orange, Burgess spent some time in Soviet Russia where he saw gangs of violent youths running wild while the police rounded up the government’s political opponents. His novel and Kubrick’s film, in turn, reflect those experiences. ]
