Postmodernism, Heal Thyself! It is diametrically opposed to the thinking of the Enlightenment, the Age of Reason, modernism and humanism, rationality, essentialism, objectivity, sovereignty, the reasoning process, human nature and the human capacity to discover interconnected universal truths.

Anarchism at the End of the World. Primal anarchism is the only way of life that has ever worked or ever can. It is the only alternative to the pseudo-alternatives of the left and right, of optimism and pessimism, and even of theism and atheism. It is widely ignored, ridiculed and misunderstood.

Marcuse makes the case that to achieve a liberated utopia, man will have to be changed at the level of his fundamental needs and his biology, and that this can be accomplished by making him live in a society that “introjects” a new critical morality into him. It’s a truly alarming piece of work.
