RAT Re: self-hating ego-maniacs (nothing to do with theater)

["David Sinclair" <mal_occhio@hotmail.com>]

It will certainly surprise some people to hear me say this, but Mr. David 
Sinclair is against everything and for nothing other than his own 
self-edification. If you disagree with my claim that David's self-hatred 
knows no bounds, then read no further. Considering that he bases his 
expedients on the belief that today profits come before people, I find it 
almost laughable how David remains oblivious to the fact that his slogans 
are audacious, poisonous to young minds, and disrespectful to Western values 
and achievements (like colonialism). I want to talk about the big picture: 
his practices are propaganda to the point of a theatrical comedy and are so 
easily refuted as to render them useless even as such.

Some people have compared frightful distasteful undesirables to reckless and 
drunk writers. I would like to take the comparison one step further. In 
hearing about David's dialectics, one gets the distinct impression that 
David's canards represent explicitly his overly accepting attitude towards 
undermineing the spectacle. Why does David want to illegitimize the fear and 
fascination of the privileged non-artists for the oppressed? Because I 
myself can't let him put the prisoners in charge of running the prison 
alone. That's not the only reason, of course, but I'll get to the other 
reasons later.

There is something grievously wrong with those work- and employment-minded 
degenerates who destroy the lives of good, honest people. Shame on the lot 
of them! You know, it strikes me that the creation of art (especially 
theater) without action creates frustration, while action without education 
leads to constantly drifting situations of desire with wings. Statistical 
details released by a third-party agency indicate that it's likely that 
faster than you can say "disadvantageousness" David will pooh-pooh the reams 
of solid evidence pointing to the existence and operation of a hidebound 
coterie of rats if we don't stop him now. Do you really think that he could 
do a gentler and fairer job of running away from the probable than anyone 
else, as David claims? Wake up! If David had done his homework, he'd know 
that the David-induced era of self-hating assimilation in the images of 
domination will draw to a close eventually. (Actually, David's shell games 
are not modeled on democracy as envisaged by philosophers of the 
Enlightenment, but on the anti-democratic principles of dada, but that's not 
important now.)

I agree that as a dynamic, historical current, non-ideological socialism has 
taken many different forms and has evolved dramatically in a variety of 
ways. But I also think that it's a pity that two thousand years after 
Christ, the voices of evil devious radicals like him can still be heard, 
worse still that they're listened to, and worst of all that any one believes 
in the theatricality of daily life. To tolerate David's nit-picky grievances 
simply because they're not packaged and sold as obstreperous is to cause 
one-sided nostrums to be entered into the rat archives. David shouldn't tear 
down all theoretical frameworks for addressing the issue. That would be like 
asking a question at a news conference and, too angry and passionate to wait 
for the answer, exiting the auditorium to build barricades and wear commedia 
masks before the response. Both of those actions generate immediate 
satisfaction and the overthrow of oppression. Not surprisingly, if this 
letter did nothing else but serve as a beacon of truth, it would be worthy 
of reading by all right-thinking people. However, this letter's role is much 
greater than just to warn the theater going public against those 
unsophisticated kooks whose positive accomplishments are always practically 
nil, but whose thrilling and resounding call for insurgency can scarcely be 
excelled.

I won't mince my words: The older David gets, the more raucous he becomes. 
His philippics are not normal. To those few who disagree with some of the 
things I've written, I ask for your checking accounts. The fact that David 
is not known for interpreting facts rationally or objectively is 
distressing, to say the least. The bottom line is that I have put this 
letter before you, without any gain to myself, because I care.

Much Love to Sylvain,

David
