"Look at Kamala Harris. She was so well trained by experts, that in the end she was saying practically nothing. Trump - beneath all his 'protect the family', 'sanity', 'return to normality', and so on - he is just a dirty pervert. I pray that Trump will survive the next couple of years. I'm more afraid if Vance takes over. Hannah Arendt wrote a wonderful text about the gap between SA, those brutal early nazis who were ruining the streets, beating people, - and SS, who were cold efficient. We basically don't have anywhere to return.
When you're defecating shits, there can be some sounds, and so on. In Japan, I entered a public toilet once there, and the moment I locked myself - music! The function is that eventual sounds are not heard. So, in other words, I focus too much on shit. Tibet - where shitting was not a problem. Do it in public! Squat, and that's it! An old German obsession - the first ritual in the morning is: you go to shit, and then you look at your shit, you smell it. It's meant to be not what it is: perverted pleasure, - but medical. I was very friendly years ago with some true sado-maso lesbian ladies. She said: 'I have all this dirty desire up to eating shit, so now I'm free.' A group of dignfied people standing in a circle, talking, and then one of them pulls his trousers down, and starts to shit there. I'm totally convinced that if you look deep into yourself, you will find a lot of shit, of course. Find a vocation!
An enemy is somebody whose story you're not ready to hear. How could I understand the others when they even don't understand themselves? Bad people is: I strangle you, and I have a nice sleep."
