Re: [A-List] Re: History and Sacrificial Death/MLK and sex as history



>> A real leader makes an example by never allowing
the  precious donations of funds by poor masses to be wasted in any way or
living  in a lifestyle that is contemptuous of the trusts and living
conditions of  those masses supporting him or her. Ho Chi Minh lived in
former servant's  quarters and when he died, he had few possessions of  his
own.<<

Comment

All leaders are real people and that  which cast them as "real leaders" is 
bound up with ideology, vision, cause,  states of development of their 
environment; class and the organizations they are  part of. Communist leaders, such as 
Ho Chi Minh have very few material  possessions and personal wealth, as the 
living logic of their abundance of  personal possession.  They possess the 
hearts and minds of those who cast  them as the 1. Mao ZeDong and a Joseph Stalin, 
as paramount ideological leaders  required very little in material wealth as 
an expression of their passion. 
 
Dr. King was not communist in any modern meaning, nor is he recorded in  
history as being of the anti-communist mode of a Hoover or Kennedy. Dr. Kings  
wing of the African American Peoples Movement, as this wing assumed  
organizational structure possessed a bourgeois democratic ideology as the  passion to 
realize the vision of the Second American Revolution. To imply that a  body 
politic is morally unfit because it cannot be what it is not, is to cuss  the snake 
for not being an elephant. 
 
Real leaders do in fact separate themselves from the masses because the  
masses as the abstraction of impulse is made real, as organization. The African  
American Peoples Movement cause was to enter classes corresponding to ones  
skill, wealth and will, unfettered by segregation. All wealth comes from the  
poor, which explains why they are poor in the first place. Interestingly, King  
was assassinated at a motel rather than a Hotel. 
 
Whatever connection may exist between Dr. King's sex life and his body  
politics as a wing of the African American Peoples Movement, and there is in  fact 
a material connection, is not disclosed and revealed on the basis of saying  
"I" do not agree with this and "Me think this is not good" and "Me feel that  
this is betrayal" and "Me feel that a real leader is made real on the basis of  
my 'Eye'," rather than the abstract "I" constituting the organization 
expressing  his wing of the movement.   
 
Women are in fact sexual beings and the object of sex or man could not  
exist. What distinguishes and makes them not men is sex. When the "Me" defines  
"irresponsible" in relationship to sexual encounters with the "I" outside them,  
as is the case of Dr. King, and concludes that his sexual encounters, lack  
foresight and awareness of environment, because they were taped and recorded  
against his will, and then place the onus on the man lacking will to construct,  
one again cusses the turtle for being to slow. 
 
The recording of some of Dr. Kings' sexual encounters and its elevation to  
national publicity, has a purpose of function outside his wing of the  social 
strivings of the blacks. Specifically, the moral crusade is aimed at  
buttressing the reaction movement opposed to this wing, by calling forth the  weapon of 
the "ideological other" as "outsider in our midst." 
 
More later on detail of sex and Kings wing of the social movement.
