The Empty Self as the Open Door to Rule by Propaganda
Submitted by wendy davis on Sun, 01/28/2018 - 12:26pm(This is a reprise from 2013 that I’d run into accidentally while looking for a vignette of a salt-of-the-earth local neighbor, ‘Albert the Blacksmith’ that I’d written years ago in order to send it to a friend from the Mancos Valley wayback machine…who is in dire need of some laughing time. Just above it, and to the left, was this same title, and I’d looked at with a furrowed brow, as it hadn’t rung a bell with me…at all. But when I read it, it seemed even more germane to the current mainstream, acceptable Amerikan zeitgeist than then. I’ll modernize it at the bottom.)
