Join Steven and Marlowe as they discuss the K-punk article on David Peace and Capitalist Realism to bridge the gap between our season on Ghosts of my Life and Capitalist Realism. In this episode, we discuss what Fisher means when he says Capitalist Realism suppresses that which hauntology mourns for. Check out the essay below: http://k-punk.abstractdynamics.org/archives/011044.html

The discussion explores dystopian themes in 'Children of Men', emphasizing hope and despair amidst societal collapse. It critiques neoliberalism's impact on democracy and examines the disillusionment of younger generations towards capitalism. The conversation touches on the co-optation of subversive culture and the authenticity struggles within the music industry, using Kurt Cobain as a lens. Finally, it introduces the dark realities of capitalism, framing it as a barrier to envisioning alternative futures beyond the current system.
