I wrote a biting response to László concerning the nature of art. As a pro-Western intellectual underdog and anti-academic, I did not affect the expected collegial and pro-social tone. I said things that will no doubt appear absurd and jarring to many of you. I invite you to challenge me, and even to try to defend the merits of destroying capitalism and all that the West stands for. You can even try to defend the noble status of the academic - hard-won from the actual nobility of the time, during the 18th and 19th century revolutions.<br>
<br>
I would be eager to engage with you. Convince me that August Comte did not start an intellectual cancer, whose lethal status still goes unnoticed. However, I imagine that you will choose to stay straddled on your pro-academic ivory tower, and remain silent. I am not going to intimate that academic confluence is to me like watching neighbors shove people of the wrong social class, gender or skin-color in the ovens, and doing nothing, but I am tempted. So intense is my experience of academic toxicity and its suicidal effects on the spirit of the West - our cultural mother.<br>
<br>
Both Art and Science, liberated from academia, are my passions. Challenge me. Make it personal. I stick out like a sore thumb, don’t I. You may want to put me in my place and teach me lessons. Do that now!<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Paul Suni<br>
