[-empyre-] Recent work on 'semiotic splatter' / introduction

[Ana Valdés]

Alan i think the parts of Hitler and Mussolinis discourses about the
importance of workers about the national pride and the longing for a
imperial past are relevant in Trump’s case as well.
I read some minutes ago 7 av each 10 of Trump’s voters wanted go back to
the 50's.
It means a time where the US was victorious white and wealthy where they
imposed the world "the American way of life" as model.
As Roland Barthes says it's a question of language :)
