Yes, there is a niche, and I think that niche is indicated by Asher's pompous references to Sartre and Camus...he wants his posters to write vague cafe-existentialism (or new agey crap), and not to be overly analytical, logical, or even marxist. Of course Asher and his dames never read Adorno and some of the other marxists' criticisms of Sartre, as well as behaviorist/positivist criticisms of Sartre. Sartre and Camus are like brand names--sort of signs for "deep thoughts sold here"--but Asher and LK'ers fail to recognize that most of the existentialist agenda has been pretty much dismissed by serious psychologists and philosophers, on both the left and right.

they don't know what the phuck they want
