Survival has become the paradigm of economical circumstances, we spend our lives fitting in to the scheme of production/consumption. Thinking that the freedom to choose between items or rulers is a choice, spending our time reduced to nothing.
The economists, neo-liberals, media the other peddlers in human misery promise salvation through more reification. They make us believe that is natural or the best for us all, which is as likely as saying that Durruti was not an anarchist, that we have to live like this cause there are no alternatives, that we have to be satisfied with survival, that we have to get used to just think of ourselves to get by, that we can not change the world we live in.
Economy has replaced god as the new theology. we are bing forced to live petty lives, thinking that the freedom to indulge in the rat race is the only action that we can make, cause we have all been reduced to numbers, but i we work hard enough we can become objects. Rally me up to this non-decision making, my mind is up for the taking.
"Survival is life reduced to bare essentials, to life's abstract form, to the minimum of activity required to ensure men's participation in production and consumption."
It is a sad state when we are being dragged into an existence that we have nothing to benefit from, into a life that we have no desire to live, but that we have no ability to avoid in this day and age. People have never been more poor and still we keep hearing about how the economy, this abstract entity, is doing better than ever, and while the rich are building summer houses they are also building ghettos for the rest of us. Change can never come with this system, we can not reform capitalism no matter what these cretins keep telling us.
