Read it slowly, I had to read the first few pages over and over before I could get what he was saying. That feeling when it clicks is the shit

yeah, French new criticism and the generations that came from it, don't make it easy on the reader, making half of their arguments trough wordplay and esoteric ethology.
Still, this is the instrumentarium they've inherited from the ever sophisticating field of the humanities, that usually uses words for everything it tries to do, so this kind of implosive sophistication is something I can't really blame them for.

no, it’s written in a very particular context that immediately evades the casual reader/uninitiated. there’s a funny translation floating around somewhere out there, but if you’re hellbent on reading baudrillard i recommend trying other theorists first so you get the hang of the style.

No. You're only a pseud if you stop reading it because you don't instantly understand everything.
