NIGHT PORTER

The Third Reich had disappeared in 1945, but the images of its death camp horrors have gripped the imagination of filmmakers and holocaust survivors beyond the death of Hitler, but in 1974 Italian director Liliana Cavani explored the reincarnated sadomasochistic relationship between a SS officer and her concentration camp sex slave played by Charlotte Rampling. Dirk Bogarde's character has been hiding as a well-mannered night porter of a Viennese hotel, until Lucia checks into his establishment.

Critics loved the film for its raw sexuality, while Roger Ebert attacked the portrayal of a victim's surrender to her past.

Personally I found the movie scintillating and Charlotte Rampling's Lucia was a courageous performance for a young actress.

Kinky and controversial without going hardcore.

There are no nice Nazis.

The Reign Of A Nationalist

Last spring my friend was driving me across Dutchess County to catch the train in Dover Plains. The road passed through rural community surrounded by billionaires' estates. We passed through an abandoned village and the last house flew a Rebel flag in the front yard. I told my friend to stop.

"Why?"

"Because I'm going to cut down that traitor flag. My people left Maine to fight against the slavers and I can't believe this bastard KKK piece of shit is flying it in the North."

Every small town has a statue of a Federal soldier facing south. They died in the hundreds of thousands to free the slaves. This flag was an insult to their sacrifice. My family marched through the South too. We burned Dixie to the stumps> we shouldn't have been so lenient, but a long war killed the killing in the blood.

"He probably has a gun," warned my friend.

"I don't give a shit." I had a serious box-cutter in my pocket. It worked for the hijackers of 9/11

"I live up here." My friend stepped on my gas and I made the train at Dover Plains.

Up here was white.

In 1949 concertgoers leaving an open-air show by Paul Robeson, Pete Seeger and Woody Guthrie were attacked by an anti-Communist, anti-Semitic and anti-black crowd and local police stood to the side.

The KKK were strong in American politics. Presidents Wilson, Harding, and Truman were members of the racist organization which believed in lynching, killing, and suppressing blacks.

Now we have a president endorsed by the KKK and declared the other day that he is a 'nationalist'.

As a race traitor I can only interpret his statement one way.

#45 is KKK

Like father.

Like son. ps the following photo is a fake.

But if you walk like a duck and talk like a duck then you are a fascist.

We are family.

Short Memories

A few weeks ago Barack Obama was excoriated by the right wing press and Polish government for having called the Nazi extermination camps located in Poland 'Polish death camps'. The president apologized for this gaffe, but few journalists recalled that back in 2008 the Polish foreign minister made the following joke. “Have you heard that Obama may have a Polish connection? His grandfather ate a Polish missionary.” The Polish government had not denied the statement, but protested that its intent hadn't been racist. Short memories are a blessing for the media. No one can remember anything, since most of what they report is crap.
