Hi Ruth

N is correct... the working class will always think they hear the
clink of chains. 

i don't know any chain free places to sit myself working 'class' or
otherwise-sometimes the  clinks chaff a lot aka the Schopenhauer blues
complete with harmonica, sometimes the chains are silken and a sensuous
repetion, most chains are not even perceptible

(After that comes the end of history according to Marx... and those
who once wore chains will cease to be)
 
do you really think so? or perhaps a case of the meek shall inherit nothing
consumed inside their appetite for everything ? it is such a huge
arrogation, don't you think, to posit being (synechdocally) equal to all the
parts of history to proclaim prometheus unbound?t  i would want to argue
that history of the kind described by Marx is already over, as a plausible
kind of political temporal/spatial schema, which by no means rule out other
schema to sail within and new revolutionary seas...

ciao

best wishes
