S. confidently left the whole ghastly and appalling problem to the Red Cross. If they thought about it at all, they saw in their minds’ eye long lines of Chinafolk, gratefully receiving huge bowls of steaming soup from white clad, starry-eyed young Red Cross nurses.

An important place therein is occupied by the so-called theory of “democratization of capital.” This theory is by no means a new one. It was advanced by the revisionists at the very dawn of imperialism. Its most complete presentation was that of E[duard] Bernstein in his Herostratically notorious prerequisites for socialism, as V[ladimir] I[lyich] Lenin called them. Example: What else does [David] Salle do in his parasitism of Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg, or similarly, does Julian Schnabel in his of Jackson Pollock and Joseph Beuys, but declare their supermanneristic Herostratism? Their punishment is that they know their art is not as heroic – as much of a “breakthrough” – as that of the artists they Herostratically appropriate.
