fascist present in every person

Alex, are you in Kiwv? Uli - What is Kiwv? I thought about you the other day. Alex - Me too, Kiev, Ukraine. - I am in Skokie. Are you on Mars? - No, I am in Munich. I thought you might be in Kiev. - Ukraine is a difficult issue for me as a Jew. Nominally, it is my motherland, but when I think of the Motherland I think of Vinnitsa and the Soviet Union, which no longer exists. Ukraine has a long history of vile anti-Semitism going back to mid 17th century and also 20th where Ukranians were the guards for German death camps. 99% of all Jews in Ukraine that ended up under German occupation were murdered with active collaboration of many Ukrainians. Today, as you see, some of the most active people there now are members of Svoboda (Freedom) who are Ukrainian fascists. - I didn't know. That fascist thing isn't dead in Europe. - Not only in Europe... it seems that the impulse towards the fascism is present in every person. The variable is only the cultural background, current circumstances, the balance of power, etc. These things affect how this impulse manifests itself socially and politically. - Circumstances bring it to daylight? - Yes, they also affect how exactly this impulse manifests itself. - Oh, you mean I am not free from that sickness, don't judge... observe only... yes, it's difficult to suppress, near impossible... I'm used to judge, to put somebody in boxes... I am better then... I get angry and beat, kill... but I've a medicine = no violence, joy, just joy, no reason... I said to my lady: Oh, I've to learn many things. And she answered: You've many days. - BTW, I have just opened a place for discussion, called Chicago Jewish Cafe. Once we are going to have there all set up, I'd like to invite you to speak with us over the internet about your protest against invasion of Czechoslovakia and other things. - Do you really want me crazy Uli? - You are one of the best people I have come across in my life. - People 70x100 cm acrylics on Fedrigoni card board
Nazi exists in every country, be it Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu....

In dem Gespraech mit Alex ueber Kiev kam raus: der Faschist wohnt in jedem von uns, nicht nur in Europa, keiner ist gegen diese Krankheit gefeit, auch ich nicht. Es ist fast unmoeglich kein Rassist zu sein, kein Fremdenfeind, nicht zu urteilen, Leute in Schubladen zu stecken, ueberheblich zu sein; ohne Selbstmitleid, wenn es an die Existenz geht, nicht zu schlagen, zu toeten... sondern nur zu beobachten. Aber es gibt eine Medizin = keine Gewalt, Freude, einfach nur Freude, ohne Grund. Ich versuche es. - Leute 70x100 cm Acrylfarben auf Fedrigoni Karton - Kann man dazu Concord von Charles Ives hoeren, mit seinem Freund Henry Cowell - Hymn and Fuging #18 oder #9

Fuer die US Army sagt Psychiater Douglas M. Kelley im Nuernberger Prozess: "Es gibt auch in den USA Leute, die ueber die Leichen der Haelfte der amerikanischen Bevoelkerung gehen wuerden, um die andere Haelfte unter ihre Kontrolle zu bringen." Kein Land ist gegen Nazi immun. Personen mit solchem Charakter sollen abgehalten werden, an die Macht zu kommen. Personen, die Kapital aus Rassen- und Glaubensunterschieden schlagen, sollen nicht gewaehlt werden. Nazi gibt es in jedem Land, sei es christlich, juedisch, muselmanisch, hinduistisch…
