Few people have the imagination for reality (Nietzsche). The sea is a very wild place and exciting and if frozen  dull and not exciting at all
Clarity
Quote Franz Kafka: A book must be an axe for the frozen sea in us.
Books have a message, surrounded by selling trics. Selling may be brilliant but here I just give the axe-message for the frozen 'Rational Paradigm' sea.
Quote of Marcuse about 'frozen' US Empire: Self-determination, the autonomy of the individual, asserts itself in the right to race his automobile, to handle his power tools, to buy a gun, to communicate to mass audiences his opinion, no matter how ignorant, how aggressive, it may be.

Message in a few lines of common sense by your reality redesigner Zarah2nd in 2010


Clarifying absolutism is their goal, Critical Theory-members like Marcuse as teachers (guru's) only aim at clarity.
A one dimensional man obscures in his paradigm all behavior by cutting off all sense experience that doesn't fit the dualism of good and evil of his paradigm; also expressed as 1 and 0 or TRUE and FALSE (a world reduced to one flat dimension of 2 variables).

Marcuse recognized the extreme danger in the more and more unique use of the western 'good-evil logic' (rationality'), and would have seen no surprise in following site about fascism in America.
His job as 'Seer' was to show fellow beings that their PARADIGM-reality can make them to 'herd of zombies', and to prepare the way for a prophet who firmly herds the human herd into a flexible paradigm of reality (relative). Like showing that the brilliant good-evil duality in the deep-frozen Catholic Western Paradigm leads to rigidity, disasters, death ...

4 rigidity observations about The Rational Paradigm ('One Dimensional Society') in Paradigm Shift way
Intro: Paralysis of Criticism: One Dimensional World worshipping 'Objectivity'='Justice' (Rational Society with only 'rational' Debate)
Part I: Rational Paradigm (One-Dimensional Societies) with Law and Order; mass communication (mass training), makes the 'public opinion'
Part II: Rational Paradigm (One-Dimensional Thought) suppressed the Logic of Debate (common sense); Established science and its scientific 'thinking' is by itself VERY limited, but it temporarily totally 'freezes' the world around us. It only with 'law and order' 'defends' 'scientific' 'justice' worldwide ('justice' has many shapes)
Part III: Chance of the Alternatives (paradigm shift) : Philosophy should change from rigid Religion Rationality in flexible Training for Freedom; The present prosperous welfare states end up as 'enlightened dictatorships' with brutal 'law and order', lacking freedom in BEHAVIOR (Zarah2nd: Examples US and China).

marcuse was 'guru of the New Left', 'flower power': a family of beautiful individuals 4 ice-breaking proposals:
· Freedom is being free (in behavior) from the daily struggle for existence
· Economic freedom being free in needs (Zarah2nd: read free from the religions capitalism/communism)
· Political freedom is freedom from Rigid Rules (politics = Law and Order) over which they have no control.
· Intellectual freedom is restoration of the individual as free willpower within the limits of a family
