The Importance of Subjectivity in Desire

Buddhism has a theory of subjectivity and desire which we'll get into in a bit but the same basic idea holds that capitalism couldn't possibly be critiquing or understanding subjectivity under capitalism it existed way before it. I'm perfectly willing to say like capital in fact I believe this capitalism adds a lot of suffering unnecessarily to that, he says. He doesn't see how lack is avoidable as long as you're talking about a speaking being so there's no way an idealist can imagine a structure of desire not inhabited by lack.
