Homo Vindictus

I was reading a review of Quentin Tarentino’s latest–Django–and thought that we need a new term for the type of man who runs ONLY on thoughts of vengeance.  Can you deny that a basic pattern in many of our films is crime and punishment?  The originality is coming up with really good bad guys–interesting bad guys,who are the stars in some ways, even though we know in all but Horror films they will almost certainly die–then interesting ways for people to start dying.

Yesterday (was it?) I posted on  Communist atrocities.  It is worth noting that the Communists are so violent because the entirety of their propaganda and creed is oriented around inducing hatred and violence that, because it is abstract, tolerates no barriers or checks to its ferocity.  The opposition to “bourgeois” morality means that, practically, the only moral values are properly directed hate and conformity.

I have said this many ways, many times.  This is another. I will be connecting this all together soon under the heading of social propaganda.

For now, though, consider the movie Jamie Foxx just made, and his comment about killing all the white people.  What Tarentino has created does not sound all that different from the Nazi propaganda films showing Jews as rats.  The whole jist of the movie is killing white people, as far as I read.

I watched Pulp Fiction once, and Jackie Brown once. I refuse to otherwise endorse in any way this talented but mentally ill moral cretin.
