...source of generational discord is pornography. Schwarzer initiated the PorNo campaign in 1987 to fight for a ban on porn. Roche, by contrast, says "I get a lot out of good porn," and calls traditional feminism "joyless." Somewhere in the middle stands Ariadne von Schirach, author of the book Der Tanz um die Lust (The Dance Around Lust), who decries "the pornographization of society" and wants to free female sexuality from the pressures of a world where easily consumable porn is supplanting eroticism. "I'm not against pornography," says Von Schirach. "I'm against people selling butter or cell phones...

...dtterddmmerung at two removes. We know about the myth of Hitler. It has saturated our culture. Our stock image of murderous power is not Stalin quietly chewing a pipe, but Hitler noisily chewing a carpet. The details slip; not so many people nowadays know or care who Baldur von Schirach was or what the Roehm putsch signified.

During exercise periods, he marches listlessly about the yard in a black overcoat with a white numeral 7 stenciled on its back. Sometimes he reads the Frankfurter Allgemeine or the Communist Neues Deutschland...
