You need to contextualize it. So you need some background, some might meme you with the typical /lit/, but really you need to start with pic related.

It's nonsense

Nice dubs, but this isn't really nonsense, just the first two are seriously, unnecessarily verbose.

Here you go /sci/tard:

">Still believes in denoting a year to a set of symbols arranged in a particular manner (e.g ";D")
>Still hasn't noticed that we've stopped and destroyed the original dialogic that generally occurs in the act of creation and dissemination.
>Still hasn't noticed that we have reached the fundamental end of progress in the direction of the sociopolitical, that the powers that be have determined the system we live under is the apex expression of humanity and all the while are smirking as they say it, due to the fact that we live in a unstable place where the dimensionality of ironic and authentic has been so blurred due to the wealth of information and the speed at which it is provided, only to be given the processing of incredulity and stamped, 'Ironic?'

Allow Baudrillard to shed some light on this: "Our complex, metastatic, viral systems, condemned to the exponential dimension alone (be it that of exponential stability or instability), to eccentricity and indefinite fractal scissiparity, can no longer come to an end. Condemned to an intense metabolism, to an intense internal metastasis, they become exhausted within themselves and no longer have any destination, any end, any otherness, any fatality. They are condemned, precisely, to the epidemic, to the endless excrescences of the fractal and not to the reversibility and perfect resolution of the fateful. We know only the signs of catastrophe now; we no longer know the signs of destiny. (And besides, has any concern been shown in Chaos Theory for the equally extraordinary, contrary phenomenon of hyposensitivity to initial conditions, of the inverse exponentiality of effects in relation to causes - the potential hurricanes which end in the beating of a butterfly’s wings?)"

It's wordsaladnese for "Old memes don't die forever. They can be brought back by somebody other than their original user."
It sounds kind of like Nietzscheian etenal recurrence mixed with semoitics and the appropriation of meaning.
There's nothing deep to that. It's just an example of somebody taking an abandoned object/idea and using it differently from how it might have originally meant to be used.
If you'd read up on these topics, you'd know that there's nothing profound or intellectual about these concepts, or any part of philosophy as a whole.

>>13732201
That's an amazingly pretentious way of saying "Shit don't change like it used to.'
I feel like philosophy is mostly people dressing up common concepts with fancy words. They come up with these cool-sounding words and systems for stuff, but the that's all there really is to it.
Empty form.

It's just gibberish, Baudrillard is a hack. There's plenty of good philosophy though.
