“The media class's refusal to be paternalistic has not produced a bottom-up culture of breathtaking diversity, but one that is increasingly infantilized” CultureMediaDiversityCapitalism Book:Capitalist Realism: Is There No Alternative? Source: Capitalist Realism: Is There No Alternative?
“Deleuze and Guattari describe capitalism as a kind of dark potentiality which haunted all previous social systems. Capital, they argue, is the ‘unnamable Thing’, the abomination, which primitive and feudal societies ‘warded off in advance’. When it actually arrives, capitalism brings with it a massive desacralization of culture. It is a system which is no longer governed by any transcendent Law; on the contrary, it dismantles all such codes, only to re-install them on an ad hoc basis.” CultureCapitalismCapitalDeleuzeD GGuattariReterritorialization Book:Capitalist Realism: Is There No Alternative?
