Every society we create sooner or later faces the challenge of keeping up with an escalating demand for resources. Although there is an immense drive to acquire more, there is never any strategy to conserve or manage what is already there. Degrowth may be omnipresent in nature, but it has never been accomplished in a human … Continue reading History Will Not Repeat Itself
The war humanity is waging on all other species has already killed much of the ecosystem. The superorganism is dying. Rather than celebrating our shared chemical and genetic lineage, we have been in war with other life forms since the beginning of time. Our track record is one of genocide and extinction, because this is … Continue reading A Civilisation Built on Conflict and Supremacy
The worst enemy of truth is half-truth. Decades of programming have overloaded us to the point where we only pay attention to headlines, not the facts (or absence thereof) behind them. The consumatronic farm has bred any curiosity out of modern humans and replaced it with apathy on steroids. As truth becomes diluted by a … Continue reading Media In the Post-Reality World
People revolt only when they feel sufficiently oppressed to be prepared to risk everything. But this critical threshold will never be reached when society has been collectively bought out by this economic system long ago. We are stakeholders and participants in everything wrong with the world today: exploitation, natural destruction, climate breakdown. This dystopian society … Continue reading The Missed Revolution
Not too long ago workers were fighting for an 8-hour shift, women for the right to vote, and African Americans and gays for the right to be accepted as human beings. It is bloody struggles like these which gave us today’s society. Yet those days seem like eons from another millennium, as the word “revolution” … Continue reading Revolt of The Couch Potatos
Seeking safety in replicating the bad examples of others is one of the most unfortunate human traits. Most of the time we blindly follow the herd of a collective unconsciousness tugging itself towards a random direction. Sabotaging our access to our own vast emotional reservoir, we unconditionally surrender to a mind prison assembled for us … Continue reading The End of Free-Range Humans
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

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
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
