About walls, mixophobia, interdiction spaces...

Post by Arcadia » October 28th, 2006, 8:49 am

cities and global paranoia (mixophobia and interdiction spaces are new expressions for me. By the way, do you know some other new words or expressions?).

See:

And about the Great Wall in the mexican/us border, Saramago's idea of a balsa would be more interesting...

Walls just never get it done.

The border wall is yet another political device,
another token "bandaid" distraction,
like most everything political,
especially now.

"There's a sucker born every minute"-- the old saying.
Politicians' careers depend on it.

I'm just Waaay too cynical today.
I need a time out.
