MFW No Alternative D: Capitalist Realism ft. Jonathan Kennedy

More like capitalist fake-ism…

This week we take on Mark Fisher’s 2009 philosophical work, “Capitalist Realism,” an explanation of the seeming all-encompassing, eternally-enduring, indestructible nature of capitalism (and the systems that propagate that myth).

We are joined by filmmaker, writer, photographer, and Fisher-appreciator Jonathan Kennedy to break down what this book actually says vs. what the strange internet cult that formed around it seems to think it says, wrestle with its contradictions, and talk a little about pixel art.

Check out Jonathan’s website (and all his phenomenal films!) here
