CHAPTER

Hypernormalization

The term comes from ago, a rather interesting guy who wrote about what it was like to live in the sovet union late in the middle of the 19 eighties. He pointed out that everyone knew that everything was not right. They knew that those in control had no control.

And i'm trying to argue in this firm is not that in any way, we're like the soviet union. We're a very different society.
