Excuse me? What the fuck did you just say, OP? Do you even know where you are right now? The premier place for modern intellectuals? The pinnacle of human thought, gathered in a single board? A convergence of brilliant minds into one overwhelming wave of intelligence? Excuse me, OP? Where the fuck do you think you are? Who even are you? This is /lit/, ignorant swine. We make the school of Athens look like a joke. Leave here and never return.

Can confirm this. As example; when I was a kid I developed the same points that are talked in OP's book but growing up my head got filled with more information and I forgot it, then when I read the book it was like coming back to my childhood.
Feels good being patrician.

I prefer Baudrillard, but I guess this is okay too.

My personal aesthetic is something I call Debordcore.

I read it but I felt that much of it delved into intentional obscurantism after the first 2 (maybe 3, I don't remember) parts. Maybe I needed to brush up on my Marx beforehand. That said, I still found it very thought-provoking, and I'd love to read more works that deal with themes of cultural hegemony, the power of mass-media over the masses, etc.

are they at odds are are they not just elaborations of the same principle thesis?

It's quite informative to people with modest intellectual capacity but no ability to generate novel ideas.
