Comparing Evils
Khan: "Only when I'm drunk, which isn't very often. Then I get stupidly sentimental.
"Actually I'm not a big fan of any country. They're all inhuman. They exist mainly as platforms for power. The rulers promote cultural rituals that make people identify with the place they live. Then they manipulate the people's patriotic emotions to get them to fight wars for them. We cling to the identification because it gives us a sense of security, of belonging to something greater. But the insecurity we feel is actually generated by the power the rulers have over us.
"Nationalism is really a mental illness. Breaking the hold these national identities have on us would be an enormous improvement for the world.
"Afghanistan has the same patriotic crap, the fatherland, hierarchies of male power. So I don't miss it. But every day I miss my family and friends there."
"What did the Taliban do to you that made you leave?"
"No." Jamal lit a cigarette and gave me an irritated look. "Not everything about a person revolves around their sexuality, you know. The Taliban didn't know I was gay. I was discreet about that. They threatened to kill me because I'm a journalist and I ridiculed them in my articles. They actually did kill the newspaper editor. After that I left.
"But yes, it's much easier to be gay in Europe than in Afghanistan, and that's another reason I'm glad to be here."
"How did you get out?"
"That's difficult to answer. Both governments are terrible but in different ways. The Taliban were still are brutal fanatics. And yes, they did kill gays. They caught two guys making love, dragged them through the streets, and stoned them to death. Really horrible. They're hysterical homophobes, it totally freaks them out. The whole society is very repressed about this. If you're queer, you have to stay in the closet, even now. But if you did stay there, the Taliban didn't break into the closet and kill you. They didn't want to know about it.
"Women were persecuted too. If they were openly Western, they could get into major trouble, even be killed.
"All that's despicable, and I'm glad there's less of it now.

At least these post-mod remixes are still musical. That's encouraging. I remember about 10-15 years ago this sort of thing was just ghastly and unlistenable [see poor OMD as "remixed" - more like "butchered" by Micronauts]. The new mix of "Puppets" is rather nice, it's true, but I'm past the point of wanting even more remixes of Depeche Mode. I'll let the youth enjoy them for their first time. Of all of the groups that engage in this remix activity, the one that I'll give a pass to are ZTT/FGTH. It's kind of appropriate that "Relax" and "Two Tribes" get resurrected via remixes [generally listenable, too] every few years for new ears. After all, the original records were the height of synthetic productions in their time. They have no authenticity to lose. Their thematic concerns [sex and war] will never go out of fashion.
