The Biggest Tariff of Them All

In my book In the Grip of Necrocapitalism I introduce the concept of conflict as a narrative for civilisation.  Throughout human history we have viewed the world as a series of conflicts rather than mutually beneficial collaborations between humans and other species:  an unprovoked conflict with nature, an unprovoked conflict with other humans, and a … Continue reading The Biggest Tariff of Them All

America, Thank You

For an imperialist country, I was always pleasantly surprised at how down-to-earth Americans are.  They are t-shirt-and-jeans type of people who just want to get along with everyone, whoever they are, wherever they come from. But sadly, much like the Brits, they fell for fascist propaganda.  Their country has long ago entered the decomposition phase … Continue reading America, Thank You

Why Emotions Matter More Than Ever

We’ve always been taught that Homo sapiens is set apart from other species by its ability to override so-called “animalistic” inner cues stemming from hormones and instincts.  But is that really an advantage?  Hormones and instincts are vital, visceral responses to the real world which serve as important alerts and warnings.  They are the source … Continue reading Why Emotions Matter More Than Ever

The Dream That Humanity Is Unable To Wake Up From

Buddhists often talk about something that sounds counter-intuitive but is actually most profound: “The mind is a prison”.  According to this concept, all of us can become consumed by our own thoughts to the point where we become hijacked, ceasing to pay attention to real events and stimuli from our physical environment.  We begin to … Continue reading The Dream That Humanity Is Unable To Wake Up From

Fuck Around and Find Out: The Politics of Hate 

A key pathology common among far-right voters is that they fundamentally believe that a society where every single person thrives cannot exist.  There is a strong sense by these voters that there is only enough wealth to go around for a small segment of society, therefore someone else’s life has to be destroyed for them … Continue reading Fuck Around and Find Out: The Politics of Hate 

The Consumatronic Theme Park

Necrocapitalism hides its agenda behind the most colourful, mesmerizing shopfront, an endless theme park of consumerism our physical senses have zero chance of resisting: they succumb to the lights, the smells, the sounds and promises.  Consumption becomes the intravenous narcotic numbing the pain of living in a sick society:  the rent we struggle to pay, … Continue reading The Consumatronic Theme Park

The Human Necrocapital

In the same way it consumed natural resources to exhaustion, capitalism turned each human into a disposable pair of hands.   All the crimes humanity perpetrated on this planet, it has also perpetrated on itself: destruction, extinction and exploitation are not side effects but essential elements of this civilisation’s operating system.  We live in a … Continue reading The Human Necrocapital

A Human Imposter

We have every reason to wish to dismantle an economic system which has become an existential threat to both humans and the planet.  Any economic system which sees nature and human rights as threats to its bottom line is ultimately a threat to nature, humans and itself.  Necrocapitalism has no loyalties, alliances, feelings or even … Continue reading A Human Imposter

All Roads Lead to Self-Destruction

The problem with civilisation is that it is simply self-destructive: driven by profit and efficiency alone, self-programmed to implode by following a predictable recipe of maximum death/maximum profit economics.  This monstrous progeny of our greed now runs the planet.  It operates not on dreams, laughter, feelings, creativity, love, compassion or any of our best human … Continue reading All Roads Lead to Self-Destruction
