you are a romantic in post-history, you can either continue to larp or face reality and read kojeve

You think we need to overthrow some sort of "regime" but there's no one at the top to overthrow. The gorillionaires at the top are all slaves to their fortunes, the master-slave dialectic has been dissolved. The creation of the "citizen" is the sublimation of this very dialectic, for we are all slaves to capital. There's no "going back" to tradition. History is over. Your options are you either consume slop at the trough of reanimalized man or become the post-historical Snob of form-for-its-own-sake. You can larp as a nietzschan overman all you like but at the end of the day you are posing in this faux-radicalism because neoliberal hegemony lets you.

This is not "fun" or "romantic" which is why many people choose to simply larp. It's up to you whether you want to play dress up like a child or grow up.
