  The problem is that I don't agree with your opinion on recent issues of Hugi: I like the graphics and music of Hugi 29 very much; don't forget that it's me who selected them.

  
  that only shows your bad taste but not any quality sign at all.

  Regarding the contents, I'm not that interested in reading about scene-related stuff.
  

  
  then stop pretending about hugi being a scene diskmag already... why you add it pouet then? why there is demoscene content there at all then?

• i don't get certain people here, ranting about "oh come on, only you can make hugi better"... WHY THE FUCK SHOULD WE? and no, you can't tell _me _ that i don't care about diskmags or scene in general. but i support only projects that i consider sympathetic, and hugi doesnt belong to them.

  The text was composed by August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben (1798 - 1874) in the year 1841. The music is from Joseph Haydn (1732 - 1809). The anthem consists of three verses. At official celebrations usually only the music is played, without singing; and if there is singing, then people sing only the third verse.
  [/quote]
  yes and what do you think why they sing only the 3rd verse? because only the 3rd verse is the official anthem nowadays! get a clue! if you still dont believe, i have an official german constitution lying around here, with the anthem on the back.

  What does this have to do with "socialist realism"?! Socialist realism was about showing the working class at labour. In the German Democratic Republic, for example, it was like this: when you created a song about love, the text was required to deal with the love of a kolchos farmer's daughter to a tractor driver.

  
  i wonder what you have (not) read to come to such a simplified view of socialist realism. please read: vladimir paperny, architecture in the age of stalin. culture two, cambridge 2002. then you'll see it's all not so one-dimensional as you see it. it's perhaps even not even about socialist realism only, but about a shift from one aesthetical value-system to another.

  I am unable to see any connection with "socialist realism". Health, mental health, good spirit - these are things that are important for every human being.

  
  not with socialist realism itself, but with totalitarian thinking in general. it's not a coincidence that the cultivation of poppy and cannabis indica was prohibited in the ussr only in the 1930s. and it's no coincidence that forced sports and a glorification of absolute health is/was to be found in many totalitarian societies. perhaps EP regards not drinking alcohol and eating no "bad" food an important part of his lifestyle, i do aswell when it comes to food, but when he or i would start to force our points on others, then it's nothing else than bad.
  
  
  Quote:

  
  There are three words I've never read in any comment of yours: "in", "my" and "opinion". You always present your opinion as it if were the absolute truth.
  

  
  have you ever read any scientific text that says "in my opinion" all three sentences? i don't need to write that, it should be clear anyway that this is my opinion, which i regard for reasonable, but which is no golden rule.

  I'd recommend that you read books by Karl Popper, especially "The Open Society and Its Enemies" ("Die offene Gesellschaft und ihre Feinde").
  

  
  are you showing off with the only books you've read or why are you recommending it to me? what connection to our discussion should it have? am i perhaps the "enemy" of the "open society"? i've read the book of course but i neither see any connection whatsoever to our debate on how acceptable the views of EP are, nor to the debate on hugi's questionable quality. oh, perhaps you mean "uh uh we live in a free society, everyone is allowed to say what he wants so why are you attacking us so hard blahblah" yes indeed we live in an open society, and i'm definetely making use of it here. open society is when noone is going to prohibit your nowadays-pitiful diskmag, not when everyone has to admire it. neither is open society when clueless freaks like EP try to force his questionable standarts upon people, going as far as suggesting ready motives for demos, claiming that certain things are generally "fun to watch" and certain things are not. if you dont understand the reactionary nature of EP's article series i'm quite willing to explain it to you at buenzli (if i wont be too drunk:).

• plus, throwing up controversion does not say ANYTHING about the quality of a mag. else you could regard tabloid newspapers and extremist zines as high-quality press releases.

• magic, i already said i want this thread to get away from personal questions. but, to answer your claim, i'm participating in jurassic pack and pain for quite some time and released a well-respected textmode art scnen mag on my own from 1999 to 2001. so, better check what people do before throwing in unneccesary criticism. and no, i will NOT support hugi especially after this issue revealing the mags reactionary nature.
