  • Capitalism is consuming the planet and as it endlessly consumes to satiate its ever-growing appetite, it's taking all life, including you and I, to a rather gloomy conclusion. Writing on "Meditations" - Journal of the Marxist Literary Group - Jodi Dean says: "Many associate Fredric Jameson’s remark, “It’s easier to imagine an end to the world than an end to capitalism” with Mark Fisher. For good reason: Fisher’s account of capitalist realism confronts us with capitalism’s unbearable yet unavoidable horrors. From the genocidal destruction of settler colonialism, through the demolition of cultures and modes of life that accompanies commodity production and exchange, to planet-altering anthropogenic climate change, capital subsumes the world. We can easily imagine an end to the world because under capitalism most of us confront it every day as we are forced to choose our exploitation, dispossession, and confinement. It’s easier to imagine an end to the world than an end to capitalism because capitalism is the end of the world. We witness and endure it in the ruins of everyday life—lost lives, lives of loss."

Capitalism is consuming the planet and as it endlessly consumes to satiate its ever-growing appetite, it's taking all life, including you and I, to a rather gloomy conclusion. Writing on "Meditations" - Journal of the Marxist Literary Group - Jodi Dean says: "Many associate Fredric Jameson’s remark, “It’s easier to imagine an end to the world than an end to capitalism” with Mark Fisher. For good reason: Fisher’s account of capitalist realism confronts us with capitalism’s unbearable yet unavoidable horrors. From the genocidal destruction of settler colonialism, through the demolition of cultures and modes of life that accompanies commodity production and exchange, to planet-altering anthropogenic climate change, capital subsumes the world. We can easily imagine an end to the world because under capitalism most of us confront it every day as we are forced to choose our exploitation, dispossession, and confinement.
