i agree with all of that. and that's a good pic to include.

it's really such an interesting philosophical plot development after deconstruction: what do you do in an era when Capital knows you better than you know yourself? you can't be cynical or ironic about it, really, but also stridently militaristic or anthropocentric forms of political thought don't seem to hold up either. to me all forms of outrage culture point back to this same phenomenon: scapegoating as a way of dealing with the horror that technocapital unleashes. you're right about productive fatalism.

>As an aside, I think examining the concept of God-fearing in the Abrahamic religions could provide some insights into all of this, but that's just a gut feeling.

how so?
