dostoevsky nails an archetype here, and it makes me realize that “modernity” has been going on for a very long time
Antip Burkovsky, the young grifter: “…his face had, if one may so express it, an air of innocent insolence... there was not a trace of irony or introspection in his face, nothing but a complete blank conviction of his own rights and, at the same time, something like a strange and incessant craving to be and feel insulted.”
I’ve boarded the #classics train once more — audio-reading Dostoevsky’s The Idiot
the first part covers the events of a little under a day and it is sustained edge of the seat fascination the entire time. utterly gripping
I’m also struck by how willing ppl were in bygone times to listen to each other babble on at such astonishing length; that seems a value which has dropped out of modern society
The Idiot
Released on March 18, 1977, The Idiot is the debut solo album by Iggy Pop. It was produced and largely co-written by David Bowie and, as Iggy called it ... "a cross between James Brown and Kraftwerk." The album is hailed as a foundational blueprint for post-punk, industrial, and gothic rock. It was the album playing on Joy Division singer Ian Curtis's turntable the night he died. #iggypop #theidiot #70srock #rockmusic #70smusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky…

Nada de gritos. Nada de agressão. Ele apenas pediu, calmamente, para falar com um supervisor. O que veio depois foi violência. A polícia quebrou o vidro, o arrancou do carro e o jogou no chão. Resultado: dente quebrado, mais de nove pontos nos lábios, concussão e perda de memória de curto prazo. Isso nunca deveria ter acontecido. Não por causa de um farol. Não por fazer uma pergunta. Não por existir. Mas a verdade é dura: a polícia nunca tratou pessoas negras como plenamente humanas. E enquanto isso não mudar, a violência continuará sendo rotina — e não exceção. 📌 SALVE para revisitar quando quiser. 📌 COMPARTILHE para ampliar o debate crítico. 📌 SIGA @cafecomsociologia para mais reflexões como esta. ✊🏿🖤 Compartilhe.
