Die Corona-Pandemie entlarvt das amerikanische Gesundheitswesen. Es ist eines modernen Staats unw\u00fcrdig.<\/p><\/div>\n

Das Bild der Vereinigten Staaten im sechsten Monat der Pandemie-Krise verst\u00f6rt. Der Anstieg der Infektionszahlen zeigt ein Land, das das Virus nicht ernst nehmen will. Erst hat es die Mobilit\u00e4t seiner B\u00fcrger zu sp\u00e4t eingeschr\u00e4nkt, dann die Einschr\u00e4nkungen zu fr\u00fch gelockert. Die Verharmlosung des Virus ist beiden politischen Lagern gemein.\u2026<\/p>\n

Den Amerikanern ist unabh\u00e4ngig von ihrer politischen Neigung ein Gef\u00fchl der Unanfechtbarkeit zu eigen und die Haltung, dass vom Ausland nicht viel zu \u00fcber\u00adnehmen ist, weil Amerika alles besser kann.\u2026<\/p>\n

This prompts a kaleidoscope of memory, snippets of interactions or rather failures at interaction, instances of talking past one another which can leave one feeling alone, in a kind of a prison. On my last visit to the US relatives had the kitchen and\/or living room televisions on nearly continually, one or both often tuned to Fox. I recently finished reading Ren\u00e9 B\u00f6ll’s book on Heinrich B\u00f6ll and the Prague Spring. At one point B\u00f6ll is asked by Die Zeit<\/a> about the Sacharow-Memorandum. B\u00f6ll says while Sakharov was apparently the sole author of the Memorandum he believes it expresses the thoughts of many others who were not able to speak out. I thought of Sakharov, internal exile<\/a>. Living in the United States can be thought of this way, I think: a life of exile limited not to an apartment building or a city, but an entire country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
