hes the literal only dude whos critism of current capitalist society wasnt either just making up a bunch of new models and words that have no use when trying to apply them to making change and/or didnt just copy and paste 1800s marxist critique of capitalism to the modern day as if it isnt severly oudated in several key areas
tldr; hes one of the few actually good theorists that didnt just do this: >>23033050

http://k-punk.abstractdynamics.org/ (his own archived blog, warning, very 2000s)
https://crackmagazine.net/article/long-reads/mark-fisher-interview/ (interview with him)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSvUqhZcbVg (good vid that goes into his ideas of "the future has been cancelled", i also rec his longer vid about the simpsons as it also goes into cultural theory)

the man literally wrote a blog and thats how he got at first famous enough to publish a book, plus capitalist realism is literally only 200s pages, its short as hell and its pretty readable alll things considered

>>23033551
the answer to most "why is thing liked so much" is to expiernce it yourself dumbass.
regardless, the forward in this books most recent republication literarally states from someone who sent an email thanking fisher after the book was made, was that there genuinely just wasnt anything else published at a time that gave names to this soul crusihing expiernces that didnt exist prior to the 80s and have infested everything (market stalinism, retromania, "pleasure adomenia" or something i forget the exact phrase but anyone who knows it knows what im talking about)

He's right about lost futures and the termination of pop cultural development since the 90s. Art, music, film, architecture...we are trapped and can only reclaim our lost optimism through pastiche

He explained that on his K-PUNK blog were he blogged as k punk

>OK, most difficult post yet, but here goes….
I was sexually abused by a doctor when I was in my early twenties. It was just after I had been released from psychiatric hospital after my first nervous breakdown and put it into his care for clinical depression.

>It’s interesting that one of the original meaning of the word ‘punk’ was the male subjected to sodomy in jail. Iggy Pop was famously raped by bikers (cf ‘Dirt’ from Funhouse), but the most coldly pitiless observer of the sex/power abuse virus is undoubtedly Swans’ Mike Gira, who was also raped whilst a young man. ‘Keep your head on the ground.
