Title: Russell and Politics
Post by: BoyScoutKevin on May 14, 2013, 06:43:19 PM
Is there any philiosophy, especially any political philosophy, that Russell liked? Maybe so, but for me, his dislikes seem to outnumber his likes.

anti-semitism
Mahler

anti-communism
Billion Dollar Brain

capitalism
Women in Love

Catholicism
The Devils

Communism
Savage Messiah
Where the Communist in the film, to my mind, is made to look like a fool.

Feminism
Savage Messiah
Again, where the feminists in film, to my mind, are made to look like fools.

To be continued . . .
