The Technological Society: An Introduction

“Our technological society is not technological simply because we use a lot of technology; it is technological because we have become elements of technique.”

Nihilist Communism’s essay and introduction to Jacques Ellul’s ‘The Technological Society’ condenses a long and important work into a primer as enjoyable as it is necessary to read.

Neoleviathan: Political Blueprints for the Post-Collapse

“Total hopelessness. Hope will never fill your belly, as Aesop said. Every leap of faith, every absurdist affirmation, every utopian dream pretending to be “scientific” is exposed as an echoing banality and turfed out into the shit where it belongs. The only limit of nastiness is plausibility, and the only possibility of good is when it is the only option.”

Neoleviathan is a monograph by metaspinoza.

At this point I’ll really ask anybody.”

An ongoing series of reports, journalistic, off-beat, and philosophical, by Andrejs Mantenieks. Do Heidegger’s Basic Problems of Phenomenology hold the key to understanding today’s violent madness?
