>getting filtered this hard by some postmodern experimental aesthetics
I dont know why FN is so hard for people to get. Nicky gives it away at the end of Circuitries. He's a horror writer in a philosopher's clothing. The crap in hypervirus, x-coda, etc. are just aesthetic representations of language being mechanized, broken down to meaninglessness, and schizophrenized. This is supposed to be shocking, because mind is linguistic, and its meaning dissolving via oversaturation would lead to schizophrenia, which is a rather unpleasant way to die. This is the lovecraftian aspect of the book, Nicky is trying to simulate a kind of madness and make it believable that this is the inevitable future.

>I hope he's alive

Quite hard to do. There is no one essay or short work that can explain Marx, Hegel, Deleuze, etc adequately.

Find some essays on Marx's theory of commodity fetishism first, because it's the foundation of his economics.

Try reading Wage Labour and Capital, Marx and Human Nature, and then read Companion to Marx's Capital along with Capital 1. The problem with Marx is you have to read all three volumes to know what's going on.

You have to read, read, and read if you don't want to embarrass yourself. There are so many common myths about Marx that we hear from the right: that Marx advocated equality of outcome, that he denied human nature, and so on. You actually have to read Marx to understand him..

Otherwise you will end up humiliating yourself like in this gem...

I get you're having a rough patch and you're doing this probably for some form of decompression but it's not healthy, and this is how we know you're on the path to an early death -- one way or another.

Why hasn't a woman written a masterpiece yet?
