On Language
(From The Heelers Diaries, August 1995.)


The American pseudo Marxist Noam Chomsky has called for the dissection of language.
He says it should be isolated like any other bodily 'organ' (his word) and analysed in laboratory conditions.
The Marxists think they have conquered everything.
ie Many nations of the earth and most of academe.
And if Marxism is observably failing any and every country where its precepts are applied, it is growing stronger in academe.
The teachers are Marxist.
The writings are Marxist.
The options of thought are Marxist.
Noam Chomsky wants language.
He wants to reduce it.
To make it his creature.
If the Marxists rule language itself, all other victories will follow.
But of course they cannot rule it.
There are no great Marxist writers.
No great Marxist poets.
Not even any great Marxist musicians.
Because language is of the soul.
And the Marxists will never be able to dissect what they cannot see.
They cannot own what they do not believe in.
Even as they pin it down, isolate it, reduce it, analyse it, it grows, swirls, becomes something else... eternally... eternally beyond them.
