The L Word

Secular freedom in Israel is not obvious. There are always bigger threats that push the individual to the sidelines. The profusion of hate subdues self expression and original thought. The innate hate, disguised by big ideologies of apocalyptic judgment day, is easy to spread in days of economic uncertainty. Ask Hitler, he knows it's easy to act when your people down. Ask Trotsky, he can show us how to spread the word of justice and equality to all when your people hungry. Ask Bush, he knows how to create Axis of Evil and Clash of Civilizations better than any 007 screenwriter.
Ideology is a term of the past, a term that were used viciously throughout the 20th century and caused the death of millions in the name of something bigger, much more important, than you, and, thus, slowly but surely, the individual has become irrelevant.
I like big ideas. I think everyone likes it. We're all enthused by the thought of the future – flying cars, Robots… Beam me up, Scotty! Oh yeah, that's great! But it can also be that we're all enthused by the thought of the future – we are all equal, and religiously happy! All people are dressed the same, hate the same, fight the same, fuck the same. Unity to the people! Death to the Individual!
Back to reality and to the 2009 Israeli elections. Surprisingly, the progressive thinking of politicians in Israel caused the ideology to almost vanish. Yes, of course, there are fanatic parties in the extreme right and left that still live in the cold war, not realizing that the world have changed. Just look at the candidates and smile – Netanyahu, Livni, Barak, Liberman – All secular and all free of rabbinical advice. They are individuals that represent mostly themselves than any big ideological agenda. So all we have to do now is to choose who will lead us next, free of stupid ideology. My free thought - Enough with the dicks, I prefer a liberal Vagina.
