“If money has no objective value beyond what society gives it, then it must be phony beyond a synthetic
judgement. it aesthetically holds no value. certain cretins such as Mark Fisher, have made various claims
that no matter what religion one might follow, one is not free from the socioeconomic claims society has
established. However, if money holds no intrinsic value beyond mere synthetic judgements, why should
anyone care about such frivolities? If there is no God, as many Marxists claim, I propose that
socioeconomic conditions are a product of society, and hold no value beyond what humanity places
upon it, then there is no reason I should not hold faith in something that they will claim is not real,
either, since something is only powerful because of how much power and value we place upon such
things”

competitive, or cooperative) with the other. The endless process of procreation, conflict and harmony is
the music of history and of the universe itself, at once melodious and cacophonous, a story with a

― Selected Writings Volume 3 (
“L. T. Woodward has also rightly brought to light a form of psychological sadism in those women of today who "make a great show of their bodies but apply a symbolic placard bearing the words 'Do not touch. "* Sexual tormentresses of this kind are found everywhere: in the girl who wears a minute bikini, the married woman with a provocatively low neckline, the young woman who walks along the street wiggling her hips in very tight pants or in a miniskirt that leaves more than half of her thighs exposed and who wants to be looked at but not touched — all of these types are capable of showing anger.”
