Is it me?
Have I mist something- some plot line which meant everything has changed?
Why is it that the olympic dream has turned us into China's Global police force -ensuring that Tibetans right to protest is denied everywhere (greece, Indian Nepal...)
I always suspect that the olympic dream was little better than a Cola add (and therefore only really good at tooth rot), but never credited it wit the power to turn us all into the repressive wing of a horrid regime.
oh well naive of me I suppose- i should have had more faith the power of nightmare!

About Me
- Ranting Blog
- The aim is these blogs is to give a practical series of examples and off the cuff pieces of analysis which fit in to a far larger scale project of making Philosophy Political. Why does this matter? Because as Foucault says, one of them oddities of thinking is the extra silent thoughts one thinks without knowing it - call them assumptions or prejudicesor what you like. My aim in the pieces here, but also on the website, is then to reweave these assumptions, or at least aim to show how they might be unpicked. Hence the importance of the dictionary which is by far the most important entry here, and really deserves a blog of its own (it is called noted on media language)...
