Well anyway I have on the way:
The Technological Society by Jacques Ellul
Amusing ourselves to Death by Neil Postman
The Revolt of the Masses by José Ortega y Gasset
Understanding Media by McLuhan
The True Believer by Eric Hoffer.

Time to get (more) pessimistic about the prospects of human kind, fellas.

If any of these are bad entry points or are not the best texts for the desired topic, let me know or suggest others, please.

I understand your sentiment and yes we all love Bakunin, but the cultural void that remains after these assaults isn't filled by Raul Vaneigem and Alfredo Bonanno. It is filled by Google and Facebook. Market values.

You share the goal with the capitalists of complete atomization. You do it so that on the other side people will come together in groups of affinity more conducive to your ideology. The capitalists prefer it so that they have a liquid, rootless population of workers who they are free to move across borders and keep wages down. The less people are attached to land the less they object to real environmental travesties. It works out quite well for them. Good luck though.

And one fo the major arguments against it was that the dropping of border and trade protections would induce a global are to the bottom. This critique is no less true today. Ask any carpenter. Although, you (presumably) being a communist you likely do not know any one who belongs to the working classes.
