when you are “nowhere” physically, you are “everywhere” spiritually…Never mind if you cannot fathom this nothing, for I love it surely so much the better
It’s easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism
phrase attributed to Fredric Jameson and Slavoj Žižek, that it is easier to imagine the end of the world than it is to imagine the end of capitalism.
‘capitalist realism’: the widespread sense that not only is capitalism the only viable political and economic system, but also that it is now impossible even to imagine a coherent alternative to it.

culture that is merely preserved is no culture at all.
see this transformation of culture into museum pieces.
un this sense, the museum has become a only as a container not an actor of the complex society.
The ‘realism’ here is analogous to the deflationary perspective of a depressive who believes that any positive state, any hope, is a dangerous illusion.
