Joseph Heller (May 1, 1923– December 12,1999)

Before writing Catch-22, Joseph Heller served as a bombardier in World War II and flew 60 combat missions over France and Italy.

That experience became the seed of one of the most famous anti-war novels of the 20th century - a book where war is shown not as noble glory, but as a terrifying system of fear, paperwork, commands, and absurd rules.

Mir scheinen vor allem die Parallelen zur undemokratisch intransparenten Willkürpolitik von #Weimer und #Merz auffällig. "Der Kunst- und Kulturbetrieb wurde vor allem über die Fördermittelvergabe zentralisiert. Kritische Kulturschaffende haben keine Fördermittel mehr bekommen beziehungsweise wurden in leitenden Positionen ersetzt." Ágnes #Heller nannte dieses System #Orbanismus und fand es in mehreren europäischen Ländern vor.
