BROTHERISM

120701 20:02 I suffer from an ailment I do much to oppose: it is the tendency to defer to others. This is due to my having had a brother nine years younger than me, in a horrible family that willy nilly fostered sibling hatred in a context of sibling pity.

I FURTHERMORE SUGGEST THAT BROTHERISM IS A COMMON AILMENT THAT CAN AND DOES LEAD TO HORRIBLE CRIMES.

The entire problem of unwise acceding to the wishes of others is a vast issue, with BROTHERISM a side issue to it.

260701 00:00 To paraphrase Charles De Gaulle, speaking of how the tall should deal with the shorter, give no compensating advantage to other people, especially siblings.

020901 2219 R D Laing´s “Politics of the Family” continues to apply after the deaths of the parents, and via the person of a sibling as the avatar of their relationship, and relationship as per Laing --- siblings can be menaces. Shrewdness in everyday life and familial relationships even after the deaths of parents is sine qua non of psychological survival. All this does not obviate the basic contact between family members: One gives a chance for contact to develop, and society must try to help by intelligent culture, but the actual relationship must be eventually recognized for what it is to each person involved, as an individual, even when seen as an individual in a relationship---we all must focus on awareness of what is actually happening in terms of each person´s individual development as a human being individually. We live in relationship, but “Life is individual”.

1655 See, because of my brother I was so busy writing that that I forgot the espresso-maker and it boiled over. Blaming others is not only fun it is absolutely necessary, and if more parents accepted that fact there would be fewer suicides.

onsdag 24. oktober 2001 21:14 I remember at the time of the O-rings shuttle disaster my brother excusing the crash as unavoidable risk etc, the toady. torsdag 25. oktober 2001 20:23 I am so glad constantly that I am here across the Atlantic Ocean and not constantly regaled with opinions of friends and relatives about terrorism etc. Indeed, I fail to understand why Ricki Lake (a show I have long avoided) was constantly refering to “best friend from childhood” etc --- I could hardly wait to get away from my hometown and get to college, and then get away from college --- altho I had some very nice excellent friends etc all along the way, and who continued to be very nice to me and helpful . But always there was the idea of growing and growing away from or whatever --- and I hope I was nice to them. I guess I was not made for USA as a permanent place to reside and to be with folks --- i always was apart, so of course my nine years younger brother (only sobling)(sibling)(too bad, it´s nice like that (sobling)) could not be enlisted in my army. On the contrary, he was appalled as a youngster at the state of war between my parents and myself. But nonetheless i felt always constrained to save him from them. Ultimately when he was old enuf to blame for his character which I disapproved of, I renounced him as not my sort of guy.
