We Lose Ourselves In What We Read,

I Think, What I Want To Say Is That Yes, My Ideas Have Travelled Into Popular Culture They Also Emerged From Popular Culture In A Way, Or From The General Public As You Put It. But Not As A Program.

I Wonder About Economic Sanctions, Though, Since That Is A Way That States Engage In Boycotts Against One Another.

What Does It Mean Then To Live With One Another? It Can Be Unhappy, It Can Be Wretched, It Can Be Ambivalent, It Can Even Be Full Of Antagonism, But All Of That Can Play Out In The Political Sphere Without Recourse To Expulsion Or Genocide. And That Is Our Obligation, To Stay In The Sphere With Whatever Murderous Rage We Have, Without Acting On It.

I Think There Is A Demand. The Demand Is For A Radical Economic And Political Restructuring Of The World. And Most People Would Say That's Impossible. And It May Or May Not Be Achieved, But I Think That's Less Important Than Articulating What A Just And Fair World Can Be.

When I Was Twelve, I Was Interviewed By A Doctoral Candidate In Education And Asked What I Wanted To Be When I Grew Up. I Said That I Either Wanted To Be A Philosopher Or A Clown, And I Understood Then, I Think, That Much Depended On Whether Or Not I Found The World Worth Philosophizing About, And What The Price Of Seriousness Might Be.
