doing me any good anyway. Life, well, that is, that's... Yes! Let's eat, drink, and celebrate the thousand-year empire! Freedom? No! I don’t even know what that is. Where would I put it?” As Nietzsche says, ,for ability-to-stand is a merit in courtiers; and all courtiers believe that to blessedness after death pertains- permission-to-sit!” (KSA p.254, TSZ p.161.) And when an entire nation feels this way, that is despotism, because let us not forget that it is not the despot that creates the slave, but the slave the despot. The Greeks knew this, too. The tyrant meanwhile rubs his hands together with satisfaction and smiles contentedly. Order comes before all else. I would sell not only my freedom but my own mother for order. Tell me: what is freedom good for? Can I buy bread with it, erect a circus, build a road? Of course not. How good it is to be dependent! How good it is to be a slave! The master-servant relationship’s polarity changes. I am not going to go into detail about this. I am just mentioning it. The masters separate themselves from nature, which is transformed, while servant shape it through their actions (they must serve), and they change not only nature, but themselves. Self-enclosed beings become masters, and they who become the engines of change are the servant. The tension deep down is constantly growing. It is like a dormant volcano: the longer it waits to erupt, the bigger that blast will be. This unequal recognition brings with it abjection and loss of rights, so that it only requires a spark to create an explosion. The two exchange sides again and again and again. A Bastille, then an emperor, then barricades, then another emperor. And it continues. This is why every system can be sure that nothing lasts forever, even if drama returns as comedy. Why do the mini-dictators and the not-so-mini-dictators not read Hegel or Plato? Or why do they not listen, if they read them? The whole thing is like a dormant volcano whose eruption is held back by the pressure of what covers it. The pressure and repressed tension grows ever greater, even though there is no sign of it on the surface. According to volcanologists, the longer the pressure builds, the bigger the explosion will be. It is the same way in a society: however long freedom is denied, and
