The Spectacle Is Not Just the Apparatus of Media

People end up feeling disoriented, like they can't grab on to a piece of reality long enough to ever change it for the better because it transforms into something else. There's no continuity. People end up living their lives in a place where at least implicitly everything seems meaningless to them. The media, as Debore says, is just the most superficial manifestation of the spectacle. It goes way deeper than that to again an entire religious attitude that we all carry around with us.
