Russell Armstrong writes: Some of the guys behind Linux Format recently quit to start up their own independent magazine called Linux Voice. They aim to release their podcasts and magazine content under an open source/Creative Commons licence and they will donate 50% of the profits to Free Software / Linux projects and communities. Issue 1 is due in February 2014, meanwhile they are running a crowd funding campaign to get the project up and running.

I agree that the threat is real. But we also must agree that there are real political issues that extreme groups are parasitic to; poverty, inequality, corruption and state (foreign or domestic) extortion.

The problem of terrorism isn't that they are "outside" the international community, but that they have reasons to, that are rational.

People are just people. They need proper incentive and motivation for letting themselves become extreme. We take away these incentives, extremists will become leaders of groups of one.

In existentialism proper, as e.g. Heidegger's analysis of Das Man under Temporality, a need to follow the front line of fashion has the clinical determination of anxiety.

I don't know the historical details of fashion, but if we're in the 2nd decade of a trend it may also be described as a norm, and a feminist critique would seem reasonable. I am a man and would not shave my stomach or chest unless it was for surgery.
