11:25 AM Sunday, 1 January 2012 What about Theodore Adorno and Max Horkheimer, Leo Strauss, Erich Fromm

and Frie drich von Hayek, Alexander Kojeve, Martin Heidegger, Hannah Arendt, Karl Jaspers , Edmund Husserl, Bertrand Russell, Albert Einstein and that whole generation of intellectuals. Which of them were authoritarian socialists. If not authoritarian which of them were non-socialist authoritarians and which were non-authoritarian socialists like Mikhail Bakunin. What about Franco Fukuyama is he an authoritarian conservative? Are there non-a uthoritarian conserv-atives? Are libertarians non-authoritarians? Was it not inevitable really that philosophers would explore linguistics and lin guistics would become important to philosophers as Wittgenstein and Korzybski, and yes, Richard Rorty have indicated? Was William James an authoritarian? What about John Dewey, Hughie and Louis, Do nald and Daisey, Mickey and Minnie. Groucho Harpo Chico Zeppo, Gummo and Skido? Why was it so easy for so many American authoritarian socialists (Marxist-Commun ist-Socialists) who preferred Leon Trotsky to Vladimir Lenin and Josef Stalin to transfer their loyalties to the McCarthyite-Luce-Nixon-Trilling-Buckley new righ t which soon became the Kristol Bell Podhoretz neo-conservative extreme right fas cist authoritarian counter-enlightenment. Why should I care? I care about my experiences beginning in early 1980s with the revelation of my psycho-spiritual-cognitive kinship (likeness) with Albert Eins tein and of the close cognitive alignment between Einsteins example of autonomous emancipation from traditionally sanctioned illusions and the social-cultural ph enomenon of autonomous emancipation from traditionally sanctioned illusions that was so evident especially after 1965 although Fredrick Jameson and Jean-Francoi s Lyotard wanted to locate (situate) their post modern coupure earlier in the late fifties or early sixties. They were not alone in browd of writers responsible f or the plethora of announcements of revolutionary social-cultural transformation s. Daniel Bell was quick to interpret the proto-fascist anti-communist anti-soci alist, anti-new deal McCarthyist new right as the embryonic form of what he would later invent the term post-industrial society that he saw coming after his obser vation of the end of ideology . The end of history and the last man would follow in 1989 when Franco Fukuyama extended Bells dong with a ding in a dell and no p ussy in the well well well what av we ear. -fin________________________________________
