Production
16 04 2007No matter how I look at it now, life really is just perpetual shopping, whether it’s to keep oneself alive or to satiate one’s psychological need to have more stuff. As you may be able to tell, I enjoy randomly italicising things.
Marx implied that politics was governed by the economics of production and Baudrillard revised this to also include the philosophy, psychology and semiology of consumption.
People in crappy factories = factory farmed
Other people = free range
But they still serve to continue civilisation, which is essentially a framework for mankind in which life is not good for everyone and profits are diverted to a small percentage of the population. Or so I reckon!
