Article by Baudrillard

"Terrorism Is Society's Condemnation of Itself" by Jean Baudrillard (via Lokman). A short quote from the article:

Violence revenges all the varied cultures that disappeared to prepare for the investiture of a single global power. This is not really a clash of civilisations. Instead, this anthropological conflict pits a monolithic universal culture against all manifestations of otherness, wherever they may be found.

In totally unrelated news about what I'm doing at the moment and the sparse updates around here: too much!

Since MT-Blacklist inexplicably stopped working I had no other recourse than close comments and trackbacks to stop the spam. I've been meaning to correct this for quite a while, but life got in the way... in a good way I should add.
