Some of us who remember the 1960's find the current fixation on defined political ideologies rather amusing. There are two ways, and only two ways, of looking at the world, if you believe the various exponents of America's two main political parties.
But that's arrant nonsense, really.
Politics has been simplified to a ridiculous extent, as any of us who have attended both the philharmonic and the rock concert can tell you. The yin and yang of give and take have been reduced to ossified shells, and the internal viscera that move each of them have shrunk into a pitiable state of nonrecognition. What has been left unloved, unattended, and unbelieved are nothing less than the core values of existence.
The core values of existence, that have propelled human endeavor for millennia. The irreducible values that move us.
It's all been talked down, and unto death.
And that is very, very uncool.
