he's right. drat, fisher kicks rear end. I really gotta read more of his stuff

shame he decided to turn blackpilled

Succumbing to mental illness isn't turning blackpilled, it's hitting the limit of psychic pain you can endure. Ultimately the blackpill is maleffective form of dissociation to stave off that psychic pain. Fisher died believing that "things matter" and that is what ultimately drove his pain.

i had a friend convince me to read through capitalist realism and i don't think it was terrible but you're probably better off just reading actual theory if you want to try to make sense of anything. fun titles though.

didn't know he died. rip k-pax

Capitalist Realism is a good piece of theory itself. It's possible that it lacks explanatory power (not my impression but it's been awhile since I've read it) but it offers concrete avenues of praxis, specifically to educators. In that sense it's a very useful form of theory compared to a lot of what's in the ether.

I was making a very poor taste corpse joke that i regret, not a cspam term. you are completely correct

No worries, I just have a bee in my bonnet about how terms like blackpill and nihilism get used
