Please help me understand this: THE ADMINISTRATION OF DEATH ......?
We live entirely a fiction of evolutionism: for capitalism a belief in an eternity of aculation and progress; for science a faith in an infinite march towards truth, for social manipulation a belief in control from cradle to grave. The profound law of the prevailing social order is therefore not economic but the progressive manipulation of life and death. From birth control to death control it's the same system of extermination. Only now there is no longer any need for actual death. The operation is realized in forced survival which only suicides not made of despair can breach. Society in the post-industrial era is one of slow-death where all time is marked, where all subjects are the (in)voluntary recipients of the unilateral gifts of employment, social security, material/ual gratification and most of all the incessant bombardment of how one ought to look, think, and act. A living death.
