Joseph Heller (May 1, 1923– December 12,1999)
Before writing Catch-22, Joseph Heller served as a bombardier in World War II and flew 60 combat missions over France and Italy.
That experience became the seed of one of the most famous anti-war novels of the 20th century - a book where war is shown not as noble glory, but as a terrifying system of fear, paperwork, commands, and absurd rules.

“You’re right, you’re right, you’re right.
The hot dog. The Brooklyn Dodgers. Mom’s apple pie.
That’s what everyone’s fighting for.But who’s fighting for the decent folk?
Who’s fighting for more votes for the decent folk?There’s no patriotism — that’s what it is.
And no matriotism either.”

It was miraculous. It was almost no trick at all, he saw, to turn vice into virtue and slander into truth, impotence into abstinence, arrogance into humility, plunder into philanthropy, thievery into honor, blasphemy into wisdom, brutality into patriotism, and sadism into justice. Anybody could do it; it required no brains at all. It merely required no character.” Joseph Heller, Catch-22

Hallo und guten Tag, ich bin auf dieser Instanz #NeuHier. Ich bin zwar nicht von meinem “Heimatserver” berlin.social weggezogen (dort drüben bin ich als @FrauBluecher unterwegs), habe aber vor, hier einen Schrebergarten für Gelaber über Musik und Literatur einzurichten, welches dann doch mehr als 500 Zeichen pro Post benötigt. Dafür wird mein mangels Interaktion brach liegender Wordpress-Blog schlafen gelegt.
Den ständigen Empörungsmodus von Twitter möchte ich hier definitiv nicht weiter pflegen, deshalb tröte ich seit meinem Umzug zu Mastodon bewusst unpolitisch − und sehr viel entspannter. Gute Musik, horrible und fantastische Literatur und Handygeknipse sind bislang meine Themen, und meine Nerven danken es mir. Auch aus diesem Grund werden Leerdenker & Co. ohne weitere Diskussion geblockt, sobald sie sich zu erkennen geben, ich habe keinen Bedarf, Lebenszeit mit sinnlosen Diskussionen zu verschwenden.

Hello and good day, I am #NewHere on this instance. I haven't moved away from my "home server" berlin.social (over there I'm @FrauBluecher), but I'm planning to set up an allotment here for banter about music and literature that requires more than 500 characters per post. In exchange, my Wordpress blog, which is lying dormant for lack of interaction, will be put to sleep.
I definitely don't want to continue the constant outrage mode of Twitter here, so since moving to Mastodon, I've been deliberately tooting non-politically - and much more relaxed. Good music, horror and scifi literature and mobile phone photography have been my main topics so far, and my nerves thank me for it. Also for this reason, "empty thinkers" aka covidiots, right-winger & co. are blocked without further discussion as soon as they make themselves known; I have no need to waste life time with pointless discussions.
