Fritzl On Incest, Hitler And “My Proper Family” In The Cellar
A number of readers sent in links to various news items about Josef Fritzl, the Austrian man who imprisoned his daughter for 23 years in his basement, sexually abused her, and fathered seven children with her. PervScan refrained from writing about it for a while for several reasons. First, the story had already saturated the media. Second, while the story was both perverse and sad, somehow it hadn’t seemed to reveal its essence yet. PervScan was waiting for something more, something different, a new detail that would crack the whole thing open.
That detail — that wealth of details — has finally been published. Dungeon Dad Fritzl On Incest, Hitler And “My Proper Family” In The Cellar tells the story in Fritzl’s own words. It also includes a number of fascinating photographs. You should go read the whole article. There are a thousand things to say about it. Not the least of these is to highlight the self-deluding irony of Fritzl’s motivation: he sequestered his daughter to shield her from “bad influences,” yet he was clearly the worst influence on her entire difficult existence — and on the lives of their seven children.
Fritzl’s references to Nazism are particularly striking. It’s not a matter of using “Nazi” as a mere synonym for sadist or brute. It’s more complicated — more insidious — than that. Have you ever read Hannah Arendt’s book Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil? Arendt argues that the shocking thing about Adolf Eichmann was not his sadism but rather his banality — his unthinking, unreflective, bureaucratic approach to the perpetration of horrors. Something similar appears to have been at work in Fritzl’s insane ménage. The simple passing of years — decades — normalized what began as a monstrous crime. Eventually everyone either accepted it, tuned it out, or had no clue. “It just became a matter of course,” Fritzl said, “that I lived my second life in the cellar.”
When abuse becomes rape, parenting becomes kidnapping, and love becomes incest — and when all of these become “a matter of course” — the banality of evil snakes its way into sexuality and spawns a new phenomenon, a sort of banality of depravity.
And the story becomes even more interesting when you consider Josef Fritzl is a Jew.
I really want to visit that cellar (let’s face it, it will be a museum/visitor attraction one day) and be pummelled in the asshole by Josef “BigCock” Fritl.
i feel more sorry for his daughter…jail’s to good for this piece of sh*t…lock him up in the cellar and only feed him a little once each day then rig the place with web cams and sell viewing rights to the general public …..this money could then be given to his daughter and her sad offspring as compensation….
Yeah, he sure deserves it! They’re never gonna do that though… He at least deserves to be locked in solitary confinement for thirty years if nothing else, and be sentanced to hard labor with a lot of other extremely vicious felons. He definitely deserves what you said, ladycara.
Austrian jails are nicer than most apartment buildings
send his ass to a Turkish jail
