Die ursprüngliche Geschichte der Fremdheit wird unter den Bedingungen der sozialen Verschärfung zu ihrem eigenen Gegenteil, nämlich zum tröstenden Märchen der Identität. [G] The original history of foreignness becomes its own opposite under the conditions of social intensification, that is to say it becomes a comforting fairy-tale of identity.

In Spielfilmen, Comics, Video- und Computerspielen erscheint realitätsnah und doch zum Gruseln verharmlost all das, was das Fernsehen zeigen müsste, was aber kein Mensch ertragen könnte. [G] Films and comics, as well as video and computer games, offer a realistic insight into all the things that should be shown on television, yet that nobody would be able to stand. And this despite the fact that they are presented with the comforting harmlessness of a horror story.
