Vladimir Mayakovsky - Beautiful Soviet Poet!

US: Council of Geeks – Dialectically Interesting! (4.6.2024)

As a Communist Futurist (very much in the mould of the great Vladimir Mayakovsky) – I view the development of endlessly progressing surgery performed upon the human body – to be of the maximum importance. Why? It is self-evident. Whilst alive we inhabit a body which has the capacity to be injured, to get ill and develop all kinds of terrible and awful maladies. In the end – we all die – and in death we are equal. Surely, if we understand that this biological machine has a tendency to become damaged – is it not incumbent upon each and every one of us to progress human thought in the direct of rebuilding, reconstructing and repairing the human body? That is – to fully penetrate the mysteries of the human body cells – and work-out how it operates and how these evolutionary processes can be reversed engineered and perhaps even improved upon.

Musing on Transgenderism!

BMA-UK – Musings on Transgenderism! (21.5.2024)

Although the Theravada believes that the six senses must be kept clean by a continuous disassociation with the outside world to avoid regression – the Mahayana and Tantrayana both teach that once the six senses are purified by emptying the mind of greed, hatred and delusion, the mind and body remains permanently “clean” in all situations (with no regression). In other words, even by engaging in the outside world as lay-people – the six senses of those who are enlightened will never become sullied. This reality can be seen in the Vimalakirti Nirdesa Sutra and the Altar Sutra – as well as in the stories of the Mahasiddhis. Monastics can return to lay-life – but lay-people – given the right conditions, can also fully realise Enlightenment!

Fighting Out "isms"!

Dr Who: Camouflage for US Anti-Intellectualism Destroying British Socialism! (12.5.2024)

If British Socialism was both preserved and functional – I wound not care who plays Dr Who or what madness any team of script-writers can come up with. Perhaps genuine creative madness gave the world the Daleks, Cybermen and the Time Lords, etc, but it is failing today – not because the right-wing is right – but because the right-wing is winning. The right-wing is winning because the Bourgeoisie is right-wing. A divisive Dr Who is merely camouflage for the destruction of all versions of European Socialism by the relentless spread and domination of US (capitalist-driven) culture. The Bourgeoisie is a past-master at “stealing” behind the scenes what it appears to be “giving” on the surface. Finally, Ncuti Gatwa, the new Dr Who, bizarrely made a comment in a recent interview – where he used a right-wing trope claiming everything “trickles-down” from the top – a fascist ideology proven “wrong” time and time again!

The Beautiful Boy!

Emails: The Homosocial World of King James I – as Recorded in Shakespeare’s Sonnets! (10.3.2024)

The Sonnets have been altered, suppressed and repressed over the last four hundred years – and particularly since the advent of the 1885 anti-gay laws in the UK (passed at the same time as the ancient Age of Consent of ’12’ was raised to ’13’ and then to ’16’ in quick succession) which were used to try and imprison Oscar Wilde in 1895. With the 1967 abolition of these anti-gay laws (which outlawed sexual activity between consenting adult men) – the Sonnets were once again lauded as masterpieces of observation and wit. I suspect that an updated edition of Arden will introduce a more astute LBGTQN+ interpretation – one that this community might well find inspiring and uplifting.

China: Guangzhou “LGBTQI+ Film Festival”! (2.6.2023)

During 1986 – Jin Xing – was part of a PLA Delegation that visited the DPRK to celebrate the birthday of Kim Jong Il. Later, after studying dance in China – Jin Xing travelled to the US to study Western dance – before returning China.
