Miss Hayek. Is that really our OUTLAW’s name? So a piece of intelligence suggests. Reliable? In the territory of contagious fiction and contested fact in which we have to operate we learn to doubt everything we hear. But not to forget? No, we remember everything. That is what we are here to do. But I find it hard to credit that Missy Sniper is called Hayek. It does at least suggest she is from abroad. Yes, there is that to be said for a continental name. After Friedrich* perhaps, or should I say Frederick. [* The Road to Serfdom , Hayek’s most popular work, was first published in Britain in 1944. It went on to sell over 2 million copies, and Readers Digest published an abridged version. The central purpose of its ideological discourse was to show Fascism as an example of the "tyranny that inevitably results from government control of economic decision-making through central planning."]
Shall we say Frederica?
Strange how things get turned round.
Such as those Generals Medici and Geisel having to stiffen up the Chilean military for the job in 1973.
Be more Brazilian.
And the days we live in now, who would have thought it: our OUTLAW Frederica.
Meaning?
l had imagined her as the avenging Angel of History from the radical tradition of the Left, but now it seems Frederica may be more of the Right.
Strange how things get turned round.
