Think about the strangeness of today’s situation. Thirty, forty years ago, we were still debating about what the future will be: communist, fascist, capitalist, whatever. Today, nobody even debates these issues. We all silently accept global capitalism is here to stay. On the other hand, we are obsessed with cosmic catastrophes: the whole life on earth disintegrating, because of some virus, because of an asteroid hitting the earth, and so on. So the paradox is, that it’s much easier to imagine the end of all life on earth than a much more modest radical change in capitalism.

Old George Orwell got it backward. Big Brother isn’t watching. He’s singing and dancing. He’s pulling rabbits out of a hat. Big Brother’s busy holding your attention every moment you’re awake. He’s making sure you’re fully absorbed. He’s making sure your imagination withers. Until it’s as useful as your appendix. He’s making sure your attention’s always filled. And this being fed, it’s worse than being watched. With the world always filling you, no one has to worry about what’s in your mind. With everyone’s imagination atrophied, no one will ever be a threat to the world.

Verona De Tessant: Burt, are we fuck-ups? Burt Farlander: No! What do you mean? Verona De Tessant: I mean, we’re 34… Burt Farlander: I’m 33. Verona De Tessant: …and we don’t even have this basic stuff figured out. Burt Farlander: Basic, like how? Verona De Tessant: Basic, like how to live. Burt Farlander: We’re not fuck-ups. Verona De Tessant: We have a cardboard window. Burt Farlander: [Looks at window] We’re not fuck-ups. Verona De Tessant: [Whispers] I think we might be fuck-ups. Burt Farlander: [Whispers back] We’re not fuck-ups.
