More From Jurgen Habermas

I am, it seems, an avant-garde dramatist. it would even seem obvious since i am present here at discussions on the avant-garde theatre. it is all entirely official. but what does the term avant-garde mean?

I've laid out a plan for how we keep people safe here at home, and i've laid out a plan of how we wage war and win by denying isis territory overseas. we must deny them their territory because the territory that they've conquered because hillary clinton and barack obama declared victory in iraq and against every generals advice withdrew all of our troops, leaving a vacuum, weaponry, territory for isis to conquer, that territory, their caliphate, is that from which they draw legitimacy, potency, credibility. we have to deny them that territory.

Now there is no taboo; everything is allowed. but one cannot simply go back to tonality, it’s not the way. we must find a way of neither going back nor continuing the avant-garde. i am in a prison: one wall is the avant-garde, the other wall is the past, and i want to escape.

An avant-garde man is like an enemy inside a city he is bent on destroying, against which he rebels; for like any system of government, an established form of expression is also a form of oppression. the avant-garde man is the opponent of an existing system.

Donald trump is doing well. trump is shocking everybody. he's shocking the democrats. he's shocking the republicans. he's shocking world. contrast what's happened here in just the last three days with eight years of barack obama. we have had no apologizing. we've had no bowing. we've had a president of the united states actually tell the heads of state of countries where terrorism is rampant to get rid of it, to drive it out. we've had a president of the united states directly confront iran where his our previous president threw everybody else overboard for iran.

The reports from the scientific world are that, there is very sadly an escalating impact of hiv and aids in south africa. and it’s from what i have read assuming distinct characteristics which were atypical of how this phenomenon had developed in the states and therefore this meant that we look at what it is that results in all of this, specific to our country.
