Squatter's Dictionary: Dialectics
Kissing the concrete

DIALECTICS, n.
A form of thinking often practiced in philosophy and politics, wherein young students become obsessed with one of two dead German thinkers on the progressive spiral of history, and thereafter spiral into obscurer and obscurer forms of thought. May involve two or more ‘things.’ All hitherto interpretations of this word, including the above just written, are wrong, according to someone or other. The aim of this philosophy is to help understand the world better, though this has yet to be seen.
There once were debates on ‘Abolish’
On differences that might have seemed smallish
You must ‘subsume’ with your dialectic
To ‘destroy’ leaves things too hectic
For society’s just a turd that you polish.
Squatter Johnson
