Between the One and Many: Whither Freedom?

Hegel represents those philosophers who stake everything on freedom.



Kierkegaard reminds us that freedom ultimately lies with the individual.



Marx insists that the collective creates the conditions for the realization or the inhibition of individual freedom; that the free development of all depends upon the free development of each.

Al-Fajr

The ascent of populist Neo-Fascism in the U.S. would not have been possible without the craven complicity of lily-livered, white-bread Liberals. But the future rises to pray in the scarlet horizon, and the rising sun reveals green meadows.

The Sanders Interventions

The lesson to be learned from Bernie Sanders's attempts in the past two Presidential election cycles to save the Democratic Party from itself is simply this: the Democratic Party is beyond redemption. This returns us to the problem of dismantling the duopoly. Noble as Sanders's interventions have been, they have only delayed work on the inevitable. Let us then return to the task of building what Lyndon Johnson called "The Great Society." Whether or not Democrats realize it, they have passed that baton on to others outside their Party (although a better metaphor would be that they have dropped the ball--or threw it aside when the Pentagon and Wall Street came calling). While I am still hopeful that Sanders can win the Democratic Party's nomination--not only to stop Trump but to prevent the reckless Berniephobic nomination of a cognitively questionable and politically reprehensible Joe Biden--I am returning to my comrades on the authentic (not faux-) Left and asking, "What is our next move?"

Those who possess moral courage and a nimble political imagination will embrace the vision of a new Red Star rising in the Western hemisphere.
