[dreaminginthedeepsouth]

Le fascisme, c’est le mépris. Inversement, toute forme de mépris, si elle intervient en politique, prépare ou instaure le fascisme. Il faut ajouter que le fascisme ne peut être autre chose sans se renier lui-même.

Fascism is contempt. Conversely, all forms of contempt, when they intervene in politics, make fascism possible and strengthen it. One should add that fascism can never be anything else without slipping into self-denial.

—Albert Camus, L’Homme révolté p 225 (1951)

Trump had no merit, is given privileges.

Once you hold white supremacists accountable, they system will implode.

Let's change the system. Lock him up. Send a message to all other white supremacists

‘The pathetic — ridiculous — attempts which people undertake to try to understand nature are typically termed philosophy. The results of such attempts are also considered philosophy. It's as though a cabbage tried to investigate the causes and effects of its existence, called the result of these reflections "an eternal and mysterious conflict between head and root", and considered rain an unfathomable causative power.’

'Set out on your chessboard,' said Geralt, 'the kings, queens, elephants and rooks, and don't worry about me, because I mean as much on your chessboard as the dust on it. It's not my game. You say I'll have to choose? I say you're wrong. I won't choose. I'll respond to events. I'll adapt to what others choose. That's what I've always done.'

'You're a fatalist.'

Brigitte Bardot and Jean-Luc Godard on the set of Contempt, 1963

"Success always deserves to be studied, because it does not come without a reason, and these reasons tell us about the soul of the era. She is a true queen. She can be forgotten, but it is impossible to deprive her of the throne. If you have seen her eyes in the film Contempt by Jean-Luc Godard, you will never forget Brigitte again."

- Jean Cocteau on Brigitte Bardot
