The Coming Insurrection - The Invisible Committee

lucjanlocke:

From whatever angle you approach it, the present offers no way out. This is not the least of its virtues. From those who seek hope above all, it tears away every firm ground.

"The dawn when lovers leave each other’s arms is the same dawn that breaks on the execution of revolutionaries without a revolution."

Raoul Vaneigem (via lucjanlocke)

"The principle of producing at the least expense is not so much a human idea as a narrowly capitalist one"

Georges Bataille (via lucjanlocke)

"We will not destroy the system by a direct dialectical revolution of the economic or political infrastructure … We will never defeat it by following its own logic of energy, calculation, reason and revolution, history and power, or some finality or counter finality … We will never defeat the system on the plane of the real: the worst error of all our revolutionary strategies is to believe that we will put an end to the system on the plane of the real: this is their imaginary, imposed on them by the system itself, living or surviving only by always leading those who attack the system to fight amongst each other on the terrain of reality, which is always the reality of the system."

Jean Baudrillard (via lucjanlocke)

"In an environment of commodities and exchange value, man is no more himself than he is exchange value and commodity."

Jean Baudrillard (via lucjanlocke)

"The vulgar economists have practically no inkling of the nature of value"

Karl Marx

"the remaining private sphere - family, personal life, free time, and perhaps even fantasy and dreams - everything from that point on became subjected to the semiotics of capital"

Antonio Negri and Felix Guattari

- Communists Like Us

"The boundless drive for enrichment, this passionate chase after value, is common to the capitalist and the miser; but while the miser is merely a capitalist gone mad, the capitalist is a rational miser."

Karl Marx
