Una delle poche cose che salva, o forse frega, la vita quotidiana nelle città di questo paese sono le caffetterie-pasticcerie di quartiere. Qui ormai non funziona più una minchia dai semafori, alle scuole, alle scale mobili, ai posti di lavoro, ai servizi bancari. È tutto guasto, scassato, bloccato, corrotto, decaduto, incancrenito..poi però scendi in una via qualunque, entri in una bella e onnipresente caffetteria, ti fai un buon cappuccino fumante con la brioche... e ti passa tutto. Un disastro. Non faremo mai la rivoluzione.

In such contexts, the fear of the metaphysical void is less intense, and therefore the risk of nihilism less. In my opinion, the country in Europe least threatened by nihilism is Italy, because in Italy everything is beautiful”. - Emmanuel Todd Sulla prima parte non ho dubbi, sulla seconda spero abbia ragione. La bellezza come antidoto al nichilismo postmoderno. Chissà.

Another pearl of #Hemingway from the same article "Notes on the Next War". More relevant than ever. Fuck the #Warmongers! @AilliA
